BREW RATIO – 15:240
an icon in the coffee world, the hario v60 has been the staple coffee dripper in any barista’s arsenal, it’s easy to use & brews a delicious, clean coffee. it’s also easily scaleable, from 1 cup upwards. they look great & we’ve found the ceramic version holds the brew temperature best with pre-heating.
there’s a huge range of recipes & ways to brew, and just like every brew method, there’s no one-size-fits-all. coffee is individual and like any recipe, we recommend using this a base to build & experiment upon. that way you can find a recipe that’s best suited to your coffee drinking style.
this recipe is for 1 cup, feel free to scale up the brew ratio for more cups.
YOU’LL NEED:
~ 15g fresh coffee beans
~ clean water
~ v60: we used the Hario Ceramic & filter paper
~ grinder: we used the Timemore C
~ kettle or something to boil your water – ours is the Fellow Stagg EKG electric
~ scales: we used the Acaia Pearl scales – you’ll also need a timer if your scales don’t have one built in
~ mug or carafe (to decant your brew into)
HANDY HINTS:
~ if your brew is taking too long (over three minutes) and tastes a little bitter, try grinding a little coarser.
~ you can gently swirl the coffee dripper with two hands after your bloom to encourage an even saturation.
~ for best results, your bed should drain entirely right before each pour. if it’s not, try grinding a little coarser.
