Aji Filter, the ultimate cafe hack
If you own or work in a cafe, making sustainable and reusable switches aren’t just great for the environment, they can also be a great money saver.
While most cafes serve batch brew or filter coffee, they are most likely using paper filters. Don’t get us wrong, paper filters do have their own advantages, but if you were to make the switch to Aji Filters and stopped throwing out paper coffee filters, you could be saving up to 400 - 5,000+ paper filters every year. This will depend on whether your cafe makes batches of coffee or offers pour over coffee to your customers.
Aji Filters: Designed for Every Brew Method
What makes Aji Filters stand out in the bustling world of cafe operations is their versatility and adaptability to various brewing methods. Our filters are available in a range to cater to the most popular types of coffee brewers — whether you’re using a cone brewer, a flat bottom coffee dripper, or even specialised equipment like the Moccamaster, which utilises a unique trapezoid shaped dripper.
Cone Brewers
For cafes that prefer the classic pour over method, Aji Filters provide a precision fit for conical coffee drippers. This design enhances the flow rate and extraction time, allowing the coffee's subtle flavours and aromas to fully develop.
And because we make the Aji Cone Filter in 01 and 02 size, you can easily translate this to the Hario ranges sizing. You can find a detailed sizing guide on all of our Aji Filters here.
Flat Bottom Drippers
Our approach to flat bottom coffee drippers is the Aji Circle Filter, the most versatile coffee filter available.
With the Aji Circle Filter you can brew on both Conical, Flat bottom and so many unique types of coffee drippers out there.
From our experience cone drippers do remain more popular in the at-home market and flat bottom drippers and flat bottom baskets are more prominent in batch coffee makers.
Trapezoid Brewers
The Aji Trapezoid Filters are somewhat of a hybrid between cone and flat bottom, the base has a flat line which interacts differently compared to cone and flat bottom coffee brewers.
The Aji Trapezoid coffee Filters are perfect to use on some of the Moccamaster range of batch brewers and many other trapezoid coffee filter brewers. Moccamaster is one of the biggest (and our personal favourite) batch brew coffee makers with coffee makers in so many cafes, it’s unlikely you will walk into a cafe in Melbourne without seeing a Moccamaster!
The Economic Advantage Of Using reusable products in cafes
Switching to Aji Filters not only contributes to environmental sustainability but also offers significant cost savings. By investing in reusable coffee filters, your cafe could see a reduction in ongoing expenses related to disposable paper filters.
Moreover, customers are increasingly attracted to businesses that demonstrate a commitment to environmental responsibility. By advertising your use of sustainable cloth coffee filters like Aji Filters, you can enhance your cafe's reputation and appeal to a broader, more environmentally conscious customer base.
