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?

I prefer unbleached, but I also don’t end up doing a pre rinse of the filter. To me what’s made the most difference is the grind of the bean and the temp of the water. You’ll just have to find what’s right for the flavor you like. That’s the beauty of pour over!
