    Definition

    Filter resistance is the portion of the brew’s flow resistance that comes from the filter arrangement itself rather than the coffee bed alone.

    Why It Matters

    It affects press force, flow rate, and the texture-clarity tradeoff.

    Page Context

    Filter resistance is part of the Brew Supply AeroPress Wheel and helps brewers describe the resistance created by the filter stack.
