Hario V60 Dripper – Blue

The Hario V60 is one of the most widely used pour-over drippers in specialty coffee, and this one comes in blue. Its name comes from the 60-degree angle of the cone. Inside, spiral ribs run down the wall and a single large hole sits at the base, so the speed of the brew depends on how you pour and how fine you grind. That puts the strength and flavour of the cup in your hands.

How to brew it

• Place a V60 paper filter in the dripper and rinse it with hot water.
• Add medium-fine ground coffee.
• Pour a little water to wet the grounds (the bloom) and wait a moment.
• Continue pouring in stages with slow, steady circles.

The V60 suits specialty coffee with a filter or Omni roast, where its clarity shows best. For repeatable results, use it with a scale and a gooseneck kettle, and keep Hario V60 filter papers in the size that matches your dripper.
