Ideal for Small Batch Brewing and Precision Control
Whether you're brewing a delicate single origin on a quiet morning or testing recipes as a barista, these filters are your tool for a clean, well-balanced cup. Designed for 1– 2 cup brews, they're perfect for anyone who wants clarity without fuss, from beginners to experts.
How It Works
Place the KWF-155 filter into your Kalita Wave 155 brewer. Pre-wet the filter with hot water, discard rinse water, then add 16–19g of medium-drip ground coffee. Using filtered water at 201–205°F, pour in six 44g pulses over 3 minutes. Watch as water flows through the flat-bottom 3-hole base into your mug, giving you rich, smooth coffee with no bitterness.
Maintenance & Best Practices
Always pre-wet filters before use to stabilise temperature and remove any paper taste. Store filters pressed inside a cup to help them retain their shape. Rinse by pouring hot water in the centre to maintain the integrity of the wave folds. Compost after use and keep filters dry between brews.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What makes Kalita KWF-155 filters different from regular filters?
The Kalita KWF-155 filters use a unique 20-wave design to control water flow and prevent grounds from sticking to the brewer walls, ensuring even extraction and a smoother taste.

Can I use Kalita Wave 155 filters with other drippers?
