I have always used paper filters but want to try metal. What is considered to be a good metal filter to use?

I have the Kaffeologie S Filter. I bought it a couple years ago, and it's still going. Mine is 43 microns, but it appears they now have one that's 61 microns, which is even finer.

I have the Able Brewing DISK Coffee Filter, which works well.

Do most people go for the finest mesh available or no?
Also, my workflow is based around espresso grind- is the metal filter going to work with a grind that fine?

I would add the Kohi Labs filter to the list. It has no outer ring, which makes it require slightly more careful handling, but the coffee is excellent. All the metal filters will give you a more full flavor, since you're getting the oils. Where they differ is the amount of body and sediment. The Kohi Labs is on the fine end of the spectrum, so you really don't see any significant sediment, but the body might be a bit less than something like the Able.Simon345 wrote:I have always used paper filters but want to try metal.
