V60 glass coffee dripper, black 02

The award-winning HARIO V60 is the dripper of choice for coffee professionals and enthusiasts around the world.

First released in 2005, the HARIO V60 is valued worldwide as a tool for drawing out different flavours when brewing coffee. It is easy to use, which makes it a good starting point for anyone interested in speciality coffee, and versatile enough to let you fine-tune each brew to your exact preferences and extract the full flavour and aroma of your coffee beans.

The V60 is a favourite of baristas and coffee enthusiasts everywhere and has been tried and tested time and again: the V60 was used to win 6 out of 10 World Brewers Cup Championships, and no other dripper has more wins to its name.

V60 feature 1: Cone shape
The V60's distinctive cone shape builds deeper layers of coffee grounds than the flat bed of a traditional trapezoid dripper. The cone directs hot water towards the centre, so it stays in contact with the grounds for longer and ensures a thorough extraction of flavour and aromatic compounds.

V60 feature 2: Spiral ribs
Once the coffee is saturated, the tall ribs do not restrict its expansion, and a layer of air forms between the paper and the wall of the dripper. The spiral ribs keep the paper from sticking to the dripper, let air flow through and give the coffee room to expand. This promotes an even extraction.

V60 feature 3: A single hole
The V60 has one large hole in the base, rather than the several smaller holes found in, for example, traditional trapezoid drippers. This lets the tip of the filter paper protrude through the hole, so the hot water can extract more as it would through a cloth filter, unrestricted by the dripper. Changing the pouring speed lets you brew coffee to your preferred taste, stronger or lighter.

The V60 is designed for accessibility, versatility and, above all, for making good coffee. And it does exactly that.
