I just became interested in pour-over coffee, after a lifetime of only drinking mokas. While shopping for my first coffee machine, i noticed that there are two kinds of coffee filters: bleached and unbleached, apparently the only difference between them is just the color, but i’m sure there’s something i’m missing.

What should i grab, and why?

    Both are fine, for most any good coffee, you’ll have an equally good time if you give the unbleached filter a pre-rinse with hot water. But if you’re venturing into Very Expensive Fancy Coffee (like $30 > per 100g), unbleached is probably the way to go to not have to worry about the flavour mixing.
