HARIO V 60 Brew Guide
HARIO V60 2 CUPS
The Hario V60 has long been a brewing method loved by professionals and coffee lovers for its flexibility and the freedom it allows. With its flowing grooves, lightness and linear design, the Hario V60 coffee filter is a basic tool for every filter set and a must-have in your equipment. The V60 drippers are available in ceramic or plastic.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
2 cups V60 Pourover
2 cups V60 paper filter
Kettle
Carafe/vessel
timer
Scale
20-22g filter coffee, medium grind
300 ml fresh water, heated just below boiling point
PREPARATION
Before placing the filter paper in the V60, fold the seam so that it lies flat against the side. Place the pour over on the carafe and rinse the filter with hot water. This will remove any papery residue from the filter and warm up the V60 filter.
Pour out the hot water and place the carafe and brewer on the scales and tare them.
Put the ground coffee into the filter and shake it gently so that it sits flat and evenly in the filter. Tare again.

Using the pourer, evenly saturate the coffee grounds with a coffee-water ratio of 1:2 (e.g. 20g coffee to 40ml water) and start the timer. Let the coffee bloom for 30 seconds or until the coffee starts to smell sweet.
00:30
After blooming, pour the rest of the water in small, slow circles. Do this until the scale shows 300 g. Your filter coffee should be ready in about two and a half to three minutes.

SERVE & ENJOY.
TIPS
If the brewing process takes two minutes or less or tastes sour or watery, you might want to use a finer grind or increase the amount of ground coffee by a few grams. If the brewing is too slow or tastes too bitter, try a coarser grind.
