V60 Pourover
The classic conical dripper, the Hario V60 Pourover is a simple manual brewing method where, as its name suggests, water is poured over a bed of coffee grounds and allowed to pass through using only the force of gravity.

Recipe
Coffee: 15g, medium to medium fine grind
Water: 250ml at 95°C (approximately 1 minute off the boil)
Brew time: 2-2.30 minutes
Serves: 1
*For a 2 cup recipe, simply double the amount of coffee and water used. The brew time should increase to 3-4 minutes.
- Fold and insert the filter paper into the cone and place on top of your cup/jug.
- Rinse the filter paper with hot water – this will eliminate any paper flavour from the filter paper and preheat your cup/jug at the same time. Don’t forget to pour away the water after rinsing!
- Pour coffee into the filter and gently shake the cone to level out the coffee.
- Slowly pour 30ml of water (60ml for a 2 cup recipe) and gently stir a few times to ensure the coffee grounds are fully saturated. Allow the coffee to “bloom” for 30 seconds.
- Pour the remaining water slowly in a circular motion, starting from the centre of the coffee and moving outwards.
- Allow the water to fully drain through. Serve and enjoy!
