The Hario V60 is perfect for the minimalist camper or newcomer to coffee as it is so easy to use and makes a bloody good cuppa. Here are some simple steps to get you brewing:
How to brew v60 pour-over anywhere
All you need is – love… and a V60 dripper, papers, coffee & a cup (or server). You can get the whole kit and kaboodle here.
Makes 1-cup
(do your math and double it for two etc)
- Put a paper filter in your V60, and rinse the paper with hot water.
This gets rid of any papery taste and pre-warms the cup or server. - Place 15g of ground coffee in the filter.
That is one tablespoon or full Hario scoop. - Slowly pour in 50ml of water, just off the boil.
No measuring jug – no worries just eyeball it, about 1/4 of your cup.
Pour from centre out in a circular motion. - Wait 30 seconds – watch it bloom.
Watch the gases trapped in the coffee bubble up. - Gently pour in the rest of your water.
With the same slow whirlpool motion as before. - Enjoy a bloody good cuppa – made by you.

The experts brew guide:
The above is simple and basic starting point for brewing on your V60. There are much more exacting methods with adjustments for variables. These involve ratios and timing your pours a bit more closely. If you are finding the brew flavour not quite right it may be time to experiment.
