The drying process of a 2-side crepe CAFEC paper filter differs from the making of traditional paper filters. The 2-side crepe filters are air-dried horizontally, retaining crepes on both side of the paper. The traditional rotary hot drum drying method applies pressure and flattens the bottom side of the crepe, creating a flat surface on one side.
Additionally, the finer texture of a CAFEC filter enables water to flow smoothly with stability for a more controllable extraction process.

POMA COFFEE LAUNCHING AT SLOW POUR SUPPLY
A collaboration with our friends at POMA COFFEE. This is our first in the series of coffees we are bringing from around the world and with the brilliant roasters within the US.
Embark on a sensory journey with five unique coffee varieties from the Variety Garden at Volcan Azul in Costa Rica. This curated selection allows you to explore how genetic differences shape the flavor, aroma, and overall quality of each cup.
POMA values innovation in processing methods, but we also believe in allowing the true essence of coffee to shine through without fermentation. That's why they have developed a unique processing method called the 'Cold Washed Process.' This method respects the tradition of the washed process while embracing innovation.
The Cold Washed Process is designed to preserve and enhance the natural qualities of coffee while minimizing external influence. This method involves chilling coffee cherries for 48 hours at 8°C to intensify aromas without inducing fermentation, followed by low-temperature washing and drying in a pressurized tumble dryer.
The absence of fermentation prevents microbial activity and oxidation that can degrade aroma compounds. While fermentation can add complexity and acidity, the Cold Washed Process emphasizes the coffee’s genetically inherent flavors, leading to a clean, crisp cup with heightened sweetness, characterized by fruity esters and floral terpenes.

Farm
Volcan Azul, managed by Alejo Castro Kahle, is situated on the fertile volcanic slopes of the Poas Volcano in Central Valley at altitudes ranging from 1400-1900 masl., complemented by a state-of-the-art mill. Alejo and his team are dedicated to maintaining and improving coffee quality, honouring their family’s long legacy of outstanding coffee for several generations.
Their willingness to innovate and develop has been essential to POMA's collaborative efforts, which has seen us initiate a lot of experimentation on their farm for the coming years.

Unlike traditional fermentation-based methods, the Cold Washed Process focuses on purity, with no additives, yeast, or bacteria involved. This results in minimal degradation of inherent aroma compounds and better retention of free amino acids, fatty acids, sugars, and oils, which act as precursors for aroma during drying and roasting.
GC-MS analysis shows that Cold Washed coffees retain over 90% of their unique aroma compounds, compared to 84% for washed coffees and 67% for naturally processed ones, while enhancing aroma intensity by 60-70%.

Based in Copenhagen, POMA coffee centers itself in the projects of refining coffee production techniques, address industry challenges, and bridge the gap between research and practical application through research. POMA collaborates closely with coffee farmers to implement and scale up their findings, aiming to make sustainable practices more accessible and effective.
The genetic blueprint of each coffee variety significantly influences the formation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and the composition of essential elements such as sugars, acids, and oils. These components play a crucial role in developing the complex aromas and flavors that distinguish one coffee from another.
All five coffees in this collection were grown on the same plantation and processed identically, which means any differences you taste are solely the result of their distinct genetic profiles. This offers a rare opportunity to experience how nature's blueprint shapes the flavor in every cup

Experience the fullest potential with SIBARIST Espresso Filter
SIBARIST HIGH CELL ESPRESSO Filters offer a refined solution for enhancing the espresso coffee experience on espresso machines. The SIBARIST ESPRESSO Filters are designed to provide a consistent extraction process, improved puck yield, and enhanced cup clarity, all contributing to a more superior coffee result.
HIGH CELL FOR ESPRESSO
SIBARIST's innovative HIGH CELL espresso filter is made of cellulose that provides a high level of filtration on the espresso shots, with a huge impact on the extraction conditions and puck yield. It creates a more even water distribution over the plug that promotes even extraction.
Enhance your daily coffee ritual with the high-performance filters that bring out the best in your espresso.
HOW TO FIND THE RIGHT SIZE FOR YOUR ESPRESSO PORTAFILTER?
The SIBARIST ESPRESSO filters have a different diameter than your portafilter. The filter diameter aligns with the inner bottom basket diameter. To determine the correct filter size for your basket, you should measure the inner bottom diameter of your basket using a vernier caliper. This measurement corresponds to the filter size that will be compatible with your basket.
If you don't have the means to measure this diameter, you can use the printable template to find the right filter. Print the template and cut out the circles, then place them inside your portafilter basket. The circle that fits best within the basket (occupying the least space) corresponds to the filter diameter you need. The number in the center of the selected circle indicates the filter diameter in millimeters. Ensure that you print the document at a 1:1 scale (100%) to ensure the template size matches the actual size accurately.
The SIBARIST LAB
The SIBARIST LAB label are the most innovative and experimental products that go one step beyond, pursuing excellence.
The main purpose of SIBARIST LAB products is to let the community experiment, learn and get a better cup of coffee. Let’s develop the products of the future together!
The selection of materials and Sibarist's manufacturing process are focused on achieving the highest possible quality over any other factor, while always respecting process sustainability.
The FAST line is composed of a mixture of abaca fiber from plantations in Ecuador and the Philippines (where the product consumed is replanted every year to then be harvested, offering a sustainable process, with batch control and chain of custody), cellulose fiber from European pine plantations (FSC and PEFC) and organic plant-based (non-fossil) polylactic acid.
The main component, abaca fiber, is finer and more porous than other fibers, giving FAST paper good permeability (leading to a higher extraction speed), while offering great tensile and tearing strength in wet conditions, bringing structure and resistance to the composition, with a low substance (less paper). Additionally, the fibers are pulp made from non-wood fibers. This facilitates clean in-plant processing, essential for eliminating the presence of external flavors in the cup and for offering a high-quality filter, while it can also be processed in a more sustainable way.
“This is a product with a history similar to that of a coffee bean. Its whole process is reflected in the cup, in the form of possibilities, irregularities, aromas and flavors. We must measure up.”
