Hario Syphon Paper Filter Adapter Plate

The Hario Syphon Paper Filter Adapter Plate is a purpose-built accessory for vacuum (syphon) brewers that lets you use paper filter sheets instead of the traditional cloth. The adapter screws into the syphon body and holds the paper securely in place during the vacuum/filtration cycle, producing a cleaner cup with less sediment and much faster post-brew cleanup. It’s an excellent option for home brewers and cafés who want the clarity of paper without changing their syphon workflow.

Made from stainless steel and supplied with a set of disposable paper filters, the adapter is designed to withstand regular use and to be easy to rinse and dry between brews. It includes 50 paper filter sheets together with the metal holder — enough to get you started and to try paper filtration across several brews before restocking. The metal construction gives a secure, spring-lock fit that holds the paper snugly against the glass for a clean drawdown.

Compatibility is broad: the adapter works with multiple Hario syphon models (common models include TCA-2, TCA-3, TCA-5 and compatible NXA/MCA/NCA style units), and it fits the standard Hario syphon paper sizes. That makes it straightforward to pair with 5-cup and 8-cup syphons and many of the Hario Vacuum Pot ranges — check your syphon model number if you’re unsure, but the adapter is intended as a drop-in alternative to the cloth filter.

How you benefit: paper filtration noticeably reduces oils and the finest particulate that cloth filters can let through, which emphasises clarity and bright acidity in lighter roasts while still preserving body. The adapter shortens cleaning time substantially — simply lift, dump the spent paper, and rinse — and it can be a great training tool when you want repeatable, easy-to-compare brews. For anyone moving between cloth and paper or aiming for a quicker service routine, the Hario adapter is a durable, low-fuss solution.

Why add this to your kit?
If you already own a Hario syphon and want a faster cleanup, a slightly brighter cup, or the convenience of disposable filters for events or tastings, this adapter gives you those gains with minimal change to technique. It’s also useful in shared spaces where cloth maintenance is impractical — the single-use papers remove one more variable from service and simplify hygiene.
