There is something quietly satisfying about a coffee ritual with no paper waste. No filter to buy, no wet paper to dispose of, just the ceramic, the coffee and the cup.

39Arita is a ceramics brand that works within the Arita-yaki (有田焼) tradition of Saga Prefecture, Japan's oldest and most widely exported porcelain tradition, developed in the early 17th century. The Cera Filter uses Arita porcelain fired to create countless micro-pores just a few microns wide, acting as a reusable filter that needs no paper. The 003 is the larger of the two Cera Filter sizes: a round base rather than the conical form of the 002, and it comes with a ceramic holder that keeps the filter stable over any cup or server. The micro-pore structure removes fine coffee particles and off-flavours whilst preserving the natural oils that carry the coffee's aroma and body. After use, rinse immediately; soak in plain water occasionally to clear the pores. No detergent needed.
