Brewing Steps
Rinse the Filter
Place the paper filter in the V60 and rinse with hot water to remove paper taste and preheat the dripper.
Add Coffee Grounds
Add 20g of medium-fine ground coffee. Create a flat bed by gently shaking the dripper.
Bloom Phase
Pour 40g of water in a circular motion. Wait 30-45 seconds to allow the coffee to bloom and degas.
Main Pour
Pour the remaining 280g of water in steady, circular motions, keeping the water level consistent. Total brew time: 2:30-3:00 minutes.
Enjoy
Remove the dripper and savor the clean, vibrant flavors of your perfectly brewed V60.
Pro Tips
Water Flow Control
Use a gooseneck kettle for precise pouring. Pour from the center outward in circular motions, avoiding the filter walls.
Consistency is Key
Maintain a steady pour rate throughout the brew. The ideal total brew time is between 2:30 and 3:00 minutes.
Grind Adjustment
If brew time is too fast (under 2:30), grind finer. If too slow (over 3:00), grind coarser.
Water Quality
Use filtered water with balanced mineral content for optimal extraction and flavor clarity.
