Hario V60 Filter - Glass

The Hario V60 is considered the most widely used hand filter in the coffee universe – and for good reason. With its user-friendly handling and the ability to create the perfect cup of coffee through numerous experiments, it is an indispensable tool for coffee lovers. We and many other roasteries offer proven standard recipes for the V60, so brewing again is quite simple.

Product Features

• Material: The filter is made entirely of glass, while the stand is made of durable plastic. Additionally, we also offer the Hario V60 in plastic in size 02.
• Ideal for coffee quantities of 15 to 30 grams: The V60 is particularly well suited for preparing coffee quantities between 15 and 30 grams of ground coffee.
• Practical Use: The stand allows you to place the filter directly on a cup or a suitable pot, such as the glass carafe from Trendglas Jena. The thoughtful design ensures that air can escape at all times, which is not the case with many other filters, such as the Chemex, and can hinder the dripping of water.
• Conical Shape: With a unique 60-degree conical shape, the V60 creates a deeper coffee bed. This enables more even extraction with lower amounts of ground coffee compared to cylindrical filters.
• Built-in Drainage Ridges: These ridges on the edge of the filter promote lateral draining of the brewing water and catch fines (smallest coffee particles), making it unlikely that the filter will clog.
• Dishwasher Safe: The hand filter is easy to clean and dishwasher safe.
• Heat Resistant: The plastic and glass used are heat resistant up to 120 degrees Celsius.
• Versatile Filter Papers: A variety of different filter papers from various manufacturers offers plenty of room for experimentation.

Brewing Temperature and Recommendations

The glass V60 is thermally stable, but absorbs a lot of heat from the brewing water. Therefore, we recommend a high brewing temperature of 96 to 99 degrees for preparing filter coffee. For darker coffees, lower temperatures should be used.

Standard Recipe with Glass V60 for Filter Coffee

1. Fold the paper filter at the fold tab and place it in the V60.
2. Rinse the filter with hot water to remove the paper taste and preheat it.
3. Grind 15-30 g of coffee (grind size like caster sugar) and calculate the water amount in a 1:16 ratio. Example: 15 grams of coffee * 16 = 240 ml Benjamin brews 18 grams with 300 ml water as standard, i.e. 6 grams of ground coffee per 100 ml of water
4. Add the coffee amount to the filter and place it on a scale.
5. Cover the ground coffee completely at 18 g with approximately 50-60 g of hot water (98 degrees).
6. Swirl the filter to wet the ground coffee evenly.
7. After approximately 30 - 40 seconds, starting from the center of the grounds, pour in a circular motion until approximately half of the total water amount (e.g. 150 ml) has been poured.
8. Once the water has mostly drained, pour the remaining water in a circular motion again. Then swirl once more in a circular motion so that the ground coffee detaches from the sides of the filter.
9. After 2:10 to 2:50 minutes, the coffee should have finished dripping (with 18 grams of ground coffee used).
