OREA Filter Paper - FLAT




Finding the best paper 

Our collection of flat paper options is ever growing - when we find something worth adding, we do. But we do it slowly, and we scrutinise and test each paper thoroughly. 


Type "G" - Classic 

This paper is our classic flat paper we've offered from the start. The "G" stands for "General purpose" and is our budget-friendly option. It's smooth on one side and has a crepe construction on the other. We recommend keeping the smooth side inside (touching the coffee) and the crepe side outside (touching the brewer). This paper brings quite a lot of sweetness and has a medium flow rate. It will increase your contact time compared to the other flat papers, and typically you would grind coarser. The paper stock is from Japan and is cut to shape in China. This paper comes with brew guides - check for the QR code on the bag. This paper is a great match for our OPEN bottom brewers and the FAST and APEX bottoms in the V4. 


Type "C" 

The "C" stands for "Clarity" - and we chose this paper because it really gave us the most consistently clear brews from any paper we ever tested. Type "C" is a two-side crepe paper (both sides are the same, fold it either way), relatively thick and quite porous. This paper construction leads to a medium flow rate (in our brewers). But we love it for the character of the brew: extreme flavour clarity and intensely clear aroma. It's something quite special. This paper is made and cut in the EU and therefore comes with a bit higher price tag for now. As such, we are making it available in packs of 50 to start with, so it's easier and more affordable to try. As we scale, we can reduce cost with our ultimate goal being to match our Type "G" pricing for this paper one day. This paper comes with brew guides - check for the QR code on the box.

Made for the Negotiator tool

The Type "C" and Type "G" papers are made to work with the Negotiator tool, which helps you fit the paper precisely to the inside of OREA Brewers. 


Supplied with guides

In each pack, you will find guides to help you get brewing. Dialling these in can be challenging as the brew dynamics are quite different. Please see the guides included for tips on getting the best out of this combination, with unique recipes designed to take your brewing to new levels. You can also find these guides online here
