Reusable Metal Filters From Able

Able concentrates on permanent filters that replace paper in popular manual brewers. The result is less waste in the bin and a filter you can rinse and use again, which suits anyone who brews every day.

Able Disk for the AeroPress

The Disk comes with two hole sizes. The standard disk has 254 micron holes and lets through a little more fine material, which gives a fuller body. The fine disk has 152 micron holes and is aimed at a sweeter, cleaner cup with very little sediment. The fine version is far thinner than the standard one, so it needs careful handling, while the standard disk is the sturdier choice for heavy use.

Kone Filter

The Kone is a stainless steel cone made for the Chemex, with a plastic support ring that rests on the carafe and makes it easy to lift out after brewing. The holes are spaced more densely toward the bottom, a layout intended to keep water moving evenly through the grounds whether you brew one cup or a full batch. Because it is a single seamless piece with a polished finish, there are fewer corners for grounds and oils to cling to. It also suits several automatic drip brewers, so ask us to confirm your model.

Choosing and Getting Help

Pick the fine disk if clarity matters most and you are happy to treat it gently. Pick the standard disk for body and durability. Everything here is available online and in-store, and our team can talk through the AeroPress, filters and grind size that suit the way you brew.

Frequently asked questions

The standard disk has larger 254 micron holes and gives a fuller body with slightly more fine particles. The fine disk has 152 micron holes for a cleaner, sweeter cup with very little sediment. The fine disk is also much thinner, so it needs more careful handling.

The Disk is made for the AeroPress. Fit can differ between the Original, Go and Clear models, so tell us which AeroPress you own and our team will confirm the fit before you order.

The fourth generation Kone fits 6, 8 and 10 cup Chemex brewers, and it also suits some automatic drip machines. If you have an older or unusual carafe, check with us first so you do not buy the wrong size.

No. The Disk and the Kone are permanent filters that you rinse and reuse, so there is no paper to restock. Some people keep paper filters on hand as well for a different style of cup, and we stock those for the AeroPress.

It is considerably thinner than the standard disk, so it can bend or be damaged if it is knocked or pressed hard. Handle it gently when cleaning and removing it. If you want a sturdier option for heavy daily use, the standard disk is the better pick.
