  • EXPERIENCE SPECIALTY COFFEE IN A NEW WAY!

    FAST Specialty Coffee filters are designed to let the flavour of your coffee stand alone, with no paper flavour and as little impact on the coffee's flavours as possible. FAST uses an incredible paper made from Abacá Plant Fibre, the strongest natural plant fibre, which allows for a thinner paper with the same structural integrity of other thicker paper filters. So now you can brew faster at a finer grind, getting a higher extraction without worrying about choking your brew.

    With FAST you can rediscover coffees. Reinvent your coffee brewing recipes to bring out the uniqueness of each coffee, with new flavour profiles and cup characteristics. FAST is the ideal filter for experimentation in the search for the best possible extraction.

    Sibarist is devoting the same care and attention to the filter that goes into obtaining an exceptional coffee. Paying attention to detail throughout the whole supply chain, from the origin of the raw material on estates and plantations to its local processing and manufacture in Barcelona. Reflecting the values and standards that characterize Specialty Coffee by focusing on quality above quantity. The whole process of making filters is reflected in the cup, in the form of possibilities, irregularities, aromas and flavours. FAST is all about measuring up to the highest quality. FAST is made in Barcelona to be able to guarantee the quality, uniformity and traceability of the entire process.

Great to have on hand

These filters offer a noticeably faster draw-down compared to the Hario V60 filters I normally use. The faster draw-down allows me to use a finer grind without having my pour-over stall. I like to experiment with finer grind settings, especially with light roasts. With Hario V60 filters when doing so I sometimes get stalling and as a result astringencies in the cup, whereas with the Sibarist Fast filters I get a well balanced cup. I also like to use the Sibarist filters when I'm using my Hario V60 Switch, again because the normal V60 filters can lead to stalling when used with the Switch.

For lightly roasted beans I find a finer grind + Sibarist Fast filters works quite well. For more developed roasts I find a coarser grind with the normal V60 filters to work for me.

For me these filters are not for everyday use, but for special roasts or roasts I'm having a hard time with.

One thing to note is that I do get more oil in the cup with these filters compared to the Hario V60 filters. I guess it's up to you if that's a good or bad thing.

The best paper filters on the market

These really have shown me the importance of great filters. It's night and day when comparing them to almost any other filter. They're fast too! I never had a single issue brewing with them.

I am addicted to

these grotesquely expensive filters. Vastly superior to anything else.

Excellent after dialing in

These filters are fantastic with a V60 after dialing in your grind size. Very balanced cup that really lets the beans shine, I like to cup my beans the first time I get a new roast, and these filters have let me really get the most out of my beans and let all the subtle flavors I taste in the cupping come through.

I have a Timemore C1 grinder and usually use the Kasuya 4:6 method with 4 pours total with 25 grams of coffee. 1st pour at 50g, 2nd at 100g, 3rd and 4th at 112g. Generally you would use a fairly coarse grind for this method, however with the speed at which these filters drain, you need a finer grind, if you've seen James Hoffman's ultimate V60 guide, the grind size is similar to what he uses, or maybe a bit coarser, 18-20 clicks on my C1, but obviously your grinder will be different.

Definitely worth the money in my opinion, but takes a few brews to really figure out how to get the most out of your beans due to how fast these filters drain, also I found it really helps if you an entry level grinder like mine, as I no longer have the issue of fines clogging the filter that I struggled with before.

Perfect for Hario Switch

These are a tad pricey when compared with the standard Hario filters but are fantastic with the swtich
