What is the V60?

V60 is a conical drip brewing tool developed by HARIO, which relies on gradually pouring hot water over ground coffee using a paper filter.

It is characterized by producing a clean and clear cup that highlights the natural flavors of coffee.

  • V60 tool.
  • Paper filter.
  • Server or mug.
  • Digital scale.
  • Gooseneck kettle.
  • Coffee grinder.
  • Pure water.

Suitable grind size

Grind size directly affects extraction.

It is preferable to use:

Medium Grind

If the grind is too fine, the taste will be bitter.

If it is too coarse, the taste will be weak and unbalanced.


Best coffee to water ratio

For beginners, we recommend the following ratio:

  • 15g coffee
  • 250ml water

Approximately 1:16.5

And it can be adjusted according to taste.


Water temperature

The best temperature is:

92–96 degrees Celsius

If a thermometer is not available, let the water sit after boiling for 30 to 60 seconds before pouring.


V60 brewing guide step by step

1. Filter pre-heating

Place the paper filter inside the V60, then pour hot water over it to remove the paper taste and pre-heat the tool and server.

Then discard the water.


2. Adding coffee grounds

Add:

15g of ground coffee inside the filter.

Then gently level the coffee surface.


3. Blooming stage

Start by pouring about 30–40ml of water over the coffee grounds.

Make sure all the grounds are wet.

Wait 30 to 45 seconds for carbon dioxide to release from the coffee.


4. Main pour

Pour water slowly in a circular motion from the center outwards, without touching the filter directly.

Continue until you reach 250ml of water.


5. Extraction completion

The entire brewing process should take approximately:

2:30 to 3:30 minutes

If it finishes much faster, the grind might be too coarse.

If it takes longer, the grind might be too fine.


Common mistakes when brewing V60

❌ Using old coffee.

❌ Inappropriate grind.

❌ Water that is too hot.

❌ Pouring too quickly.
