https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ugkgalRtaY Video can’t be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: Review of the KoHi Fabric Metal Filter (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ugkgalRtaY) Cloth filters generally wind up occupying the middle ground between metal filters, and are reputed to offer the clarity of the paper filter and the flavor of the metal filter. In contrast to the 'Fine' disc and the Aeropress own-brand version, the Concetto Superfine disc is specifically suited to making a longer 200 ml drink, and as a good starting point I would recommend the second recipe below (it's a nice way to highlight our other current Colombian coffee, San Sebastian. It's a much gentler hit than the face-melter above, but has delicious tangerine flavour, delicate acidity and a chocolatey sweetness). With this technique you are swapping out the paper filter for a metal version, but not having to adapt your usual Aeropress technique too much in doing so. You do, however, have to use the 'inverted' method described above. The result will be a different experience, giving a more full-bodied drink with wilder flavours than the paper allows, but sacrificing the 'clarity' that many coffee lovers crave. It might blow you away and you'll never use another paper filter again, or you might find that it's an alternative take that complements the brews you are used to. Either way, I still like the idea of making lots of tiny, sustainable changes that might accumulate into something more meaningful.
Cloth filters aren’t that common, so it’s easier to compare paper and metal. Comparisons of key features include: Influence on Taste

For our taste test, we noticed that there were fine sediments in the brew and some grounds on the bottom—despite using a coarse grind. The Able Disk Fine filter did, however, bring out the fruity notes of the coffee beans, a testament to the ability of the filter to allow oils to pass through.
Unhelpfully, the branded metal filter is also designed with decorative elements - a pattern of curved metal lines and a pointless Aeropress logo which interrupt the mesh and thereby make it impossible to achieve a totally even extraction. This is beginning to feel like something that has been created as a desirable accessory rather than a tool to maximise your chances of making an amazing coffee! To add insult to injury the Aeropress-branded filter is marginally more expensive than the Concetto. If I'm honest it feels more comfortable supporting the upstart Scottish company, who imagined a different way of enjoying a classic brewer and made it work before the big guys decided to do it for themselves.As a downside, however, it’s one of the more expensive filters out there, and it requires regular cleaning for proper performance. With the right filters, combinations shouldn’t be needed. However, that’s not to say they can’t be combined. Spark joy into your daily coffee routine.
