Hario V60 Drip Coffee Decanter, 700ml, Black

Look, man, I was a tea drinker for years. Hot water and leaves. Easy. I bought this, needing more caffeine, and enjoyed it. I'd dump in grounds, fill with hot water, and drink a cup, originally, and it did well enough. I was looking for good ratios to get a stronger cup and instead learned how to wet and properly brew grounds. Dude, keurigs and electric drippers aren't even close to this in flavor. Done right, you will wet the filter w hot water, dump grounds (2 tbsp per cup), level them, wet them barely and then let sit for 45 seconds. They shouldn't have a funnel shape to them unless you used too much water and started the brewing process. Use just enough to wet the grounds. If your grounds are clumpy, run a toothpick through the grounds and gently shake to level again. After grounds have bloomed (they go from a bitter flavor to a more subtle sweet and detailed flavor) you can now slowly add water in a spiral pattern. You should use a gooseneck kettle to not disturb the grounds too much. You can time your steps, use a scale, make concentrate instead of coffee and so on, but I am usually half awake when using this. This is what wakes me up after all. It's a thoughtless but mindful ritual. Even at night when I want some coffee, this simple hario draws the flavor out of my decaf beans. It is a two-piece device so it is super easy to rinse off and give a good scrub to every few days. This is overall low maintenance, high quality, able to brew 1-4 cups, is compact, and makes a complex coffee.

Five stars because there's not a thing wrong with it and the price is stellar. I was looking for a cheap way to get a pour-over coffee setup in my office and this'll do! BUT I'm still dropping a word of advice for those on the fence about different pour-over options out there... I own the normal Hario v60, an 8-cup Chemex, and then this hybrid Hario thing. The v60 makes perfect sense for brewing for one, two people at the most. It's convenient and even travel friendly. I believe the thinner filter (which you also use for this one) lets more oils through so you can often pick up on more flavor notes than with the Chemex, and you really know when you've just done the perfect pour. The Chemex makes perfect sense for brewing for just about any size group, and produces a more consistent cup of coffee that's more forgiving for beginners due to the thicker filter that kind of slows the flow down compared to Hario filters. You get a very clean cup of coffee with a Chemex, every time and it looks cool too. Then there's this hybrid, that's sort of like a mama v60 and daddy Chemex had a baby. It's cool and there's nothing wrong with it, but I really think everyone should purchase her parents first simply as initial coffee gear essentials.

OH. MY. COFFEE BEANS! The Hario V60 Drip Coffee Decanter has changed my life. I mean, WOW. I thought I knew what coffee was—WRONG. This little masterpiece makes liquid magic. One pour-over later, I’m convinced I can see sounds and taste colors. The design? Elegant. The coffee? Divine. The caffeine rush? GLORIOUS. I brewed three cups back-to-back, and now I’m typing this review faster than light.

Absolutely perfect. Comes with filters as well which was a great bonus. Quickly rinsed it out and began brewing a great pour over - very happy with this

I have only words of adoration for this product, first: the presentation, it comes so well packed, so organized in a nice box. The glass decanter is impeccable, as well as the V60 material and shape, and it comes with some awesome paper filters that fit just right. And it even has a belt thingy to grab the glass while it's hot, and that thing is absolutely necessary, helps a LOT. But the most important... the taste of the final coffee after you make it, it's just fantastic, I followed James Hoffman V60 Technique using 500ml water with 30g of coffee and it came out delicious, in fact, he even recommends using this exact same product, and I'm so GLAD I did. Just remember to use good quality coffee beans and grinder, doesn't have to be expensive, just some coffee that is GOOD and well known in your area.

It's easy to clean, no complicated parts, and the weight of the pot is minimal. Another great thing about this pot is the grip pad included, which makes it more secure in handling the glass carafe. The only thing I don't like about it is the plastic filter, which is a microplastic issue. I replaced it with a reusable stainless steel permanent filter, which has worked out great. If you want a light weight, portable coffee pot that is simple to clean and makes great coffee, then you won't regret purchasing this pot.

The glass is very nice, though it feels a little thin. Not cheap feeling but it doesn't give the confidence that it's robust and that one wrong move on a solid material will mean cracking or breaking it The black belt thing is great. It's very smooth and keeps the heat away well and is big enough you can hold it a little carelessly without fear that some skin will touch the hot glass. It's also fairly stretchy so removing it isn't too much of a pain. The plastic funnel is very nice, It doesn't fit perfectly so if move it around you can hear the plastic move around and hit the glass, but the gap isn't massive. You could call that a flaw; but that also means that it's very easy to pick up the plastic funnel and do a swirl while brewing. It feels like quality plastic, has little feat so it can stand on it's own when removed from the decanter, very easy to clean. The glass itself on the outside is easy to clean, but getting a hand though the middle to clean the bottom with a sponge is very hard. Either a bottle cleaner or... hope that what you can manage is good enough, or a dish washer. Though Imo, a little rinse after use is good enough for a while. As for making coffee, well, I suppose that depends on you and your technique. It's made me very good coffee and I'm very happy to have it.

The Hario V60 Glass Decanter is a beautiful and well-designed piece of coffee gear. The glass is sturdy and heat-resistant, and the silicone band gives a secure grip while pouring. It works perfectly with standard V60 filters and allows for great control over the brewing process. Cleaning is easy, and the minimalist design looks great on the counter. My only small gripe is that the glass feels a bit thin, so it requires careful handling, and it doesn’t retain heat for very long. Still, it’s an excellent choice for pour-over enthusiasts who value both function and aesthetics.

Love this decanter, my wife reckons its the best luxurious coffee experience you can get. Its ritualistic in its use! Definitely looks as pretty as advertised and coupled with James Hoffman's V60 Technique, I think it makes the best pour-over anyone can enjoy. Highly recommend using this to take your coffee experience to the next level!

Lekker simpel en van goede kwaliteit, zeker voor deze prijs. In het begin even juiste verhouding zoeken, wat in de handleiding aangegeven staat vond ik te sterk. Heb de dripper nu ruim 1 jaar, gebruik het bijna dagelijks en ben er nog steeds heel blij mee.

Ayant eu plusieurs équipement Hario, je trouve que ce dripper est le meilleur rapport qualité-prix et le plus simple et pratique à utiliser & stocker. Une valeur sûre. Le goutteur est en plastique, donc léger, facile à manipuler, pratiquement incassable, ne nécessite pas de préchauffage contrairement au céramique. La carafe est en verre suffisamment épais, donc c'est assez solide. Elle est plus grande que sa capacité, ce qui à l'usage est en fait assez pratique (même si ce sont des détails) : on peut facilement tapoter sur la partie haute pour bien répartir le café, et elle est également très facile à laver car la forme est simple et ample. Après, le goutteur en plastique est peut-être pas ce qu'il y a de plus esthétique, même si c'est très pratique. Et le café refroidit assez vite dans la carafe : il vaut mieux le boire assez vite ou utiliser un thermos :)

İşini gayet iyi yapıyor.
