"The Hario V60 was the first pour-over I was introduced to when I got into specialty coffee, and I fell in love with it pretty quickly. There’s just something really special about the process—pour a little, wait, pour again, wait again. It’s a simple, repeatable way to make a really beautiful cup, whether you’re behind a bar or brewing at home." - Sandra Walimaki, National Partner Success Manager

Let's Brew!

  1. Heat water to 200F. Place filter in V60 and rinse with hot water, discarding when finished.

  2. Weigh 30g coffee and grind on medium fine setting, like table salt.

  3. Place coffee in filter, and shake to level grounds.

  4. Start a timer and pour 60g of water to wet all the coffee.

  5. Wait 30 seconds and then pour water in circular motion to 200g.

  6. By 1:00 the water should have drained a centimeter, pour in a circular motion to 300g. Repeat this process every 30 seconds, until reaching a total weight of 500g.

  7. The coffee should finish draining by 3:30-4:00.
