Brewing Guide

The Hario V60 is arguably the most popular manual brewer of the last decade. It's affordable, easy to clean, and delivers a beautifully clear, nuanced cup.

Originating from Japan, it is named after the 60 degree angle of its V shape. It is ideal for perfectionists who like to take their time and refine their technique until they achieve the perfect cup.

Pro Tip

If your extraction time exceeds that suggested, coarsen the grind. Conversely, if it is too short, refine the grind slightly.
It is possible to make a smaller or larger quantity. You simply have to make sure to keep the ratio of 1g of coffee to 16g of water. Keep water in the brewer low by dividing your total amount of water into several small increments.
When pouring the water, keep the flow rate low and avoid touching the edges of the infuser too much.

Step N°1

Preparation

Fill your kettle with fresh, filtered water and bring to a boil.

Step N°2

Preparation

Place a paper filter in the brewer, put it on a carafe or mug, and place the entire set-up on a scale. Thoroughly rinse the filter to remove the papery taste, then discard the water. Return the water to boil.

Step N°3

Preparation

Place the ground coffee in the brewer and give it a gentle shake to flatten the coffee bed. Once the water has reached the boiling point, wait 30 seconds.

Step N°4

Preparation

Tare the scale to zero and start the timer. Begin by slowly adding 40g of water, making sure to saturate all the grounds. This stage is called the “bloom.” It allows the coffee to rid itself of the CO create dduring roasting, encouraging a more even extraction.

Step N°5

Preparation

At 30 seconds, add 110g of water (for a total of 150g), pouring the water in slow concentric circles. Wait 10 seconds.

Step N°6

Preparation

Still in a circular motion, pour the remaining 170g of water to reach the total of 320g. The total extraction time should be between 3 min. and 3 min., 30 sec. Stir, serve, and enjoy!`
