Hario V60 Ceramic Pourover

Made in Japan, this porcelain pour over is deceptive in its simplicity. The ceramic maintains the temperature and the swirling ridges on the inside of the cone enhance your brew by guiding the water steadily through the ground coffee.

As with all manual brew methods, you can alter the flavour characteristics of your coffee by adjusting the amount of coffee used, grind size and speed of pour. The cone shaped bonded paper filter produces a lovely clean cup, which is full of flavour.

BREWING GUIDE:

• Step 1: Fold the filter along the seam and fit it to the cone. 
• Step 2: Rinse the filter paper and heat the glass by pouring hot water through the filter, into the glass. Discard the hot water, being careful not to lose the filter paper. Place the V60 on top of your glass. 
• Step 3: Pour ground coffee into the V60. Your aim is to have the grounds sitting level in the filter cone. Give the V60 a soft shake if needed to settle the grounds. Add 15g of coffee (approx three level tablespoons) of coffee to every cup you want to drink. 
• Step 4: Gently pour hot water onto the coffee grounds. Using a circular motion, wind out from the centre until all of the grounds are saturated then stop pouring. Water should always be hot but not boiling, as boiling water will burn the coffee grounds. Aim for 92°c which should be the water temperature about 30 seconds after your kettle boils.
• Step 5: You should notice a ‘bloom’- this is when the wet coffee puffs up into a golden-brown dome. Leave the coffee to bloom for 30 seconds. This bloom process helps gasses escape the coffee. 
• Step 6: Recommence pouring, using the same circular motion. Try not to pour directly down the sides of the filter. Pause to let the coffee come through. Don't let the water level rise too high.  Coffee will begin to filter through the glass in steady, consistent drops. Repeat the process of gently pouring, then wait.
• Step 7: Stop once the colour of the coffee dripping from the cone has become pale, or you have enough brew for your taste. Remove the filter paper and Hario, and drink straight from your cup!
