Why is a V60 called a V60?
The V60 Coffee Dripper (also referred to as the V60 Coffee Maker) is made by Hario. The name stems from the shape of the device. It is “V” shaped with angles of 60 degrees. The internal sides also have interior ridges which help with air flow during the brewing method. The grind size is very important for making coffee with the Hario V60. Channeling often happens because of inconsistent grinds, so you need a good grinder. Too coarse grind can make the water flow too fast, resulting in a weak and sour cup. Too fine and it becomes a bitter, over-extracted mess that drips slowly.For the best pour over coffee grind size, we recommend a medium consistency. On a coffee grinding chart, V60 grinds sit nicely between the coarse grinds you pop in a French Press and the finer, table salt-like grinds great in an AeroPress. If your V60 grinds resemble granulated sugar, then you’re on the right track!So, no matter which Hario V60 you dream of, first choose the size. The most common and universal size is 02. This dripper can easily brew 250-300 ml of coffee, as well as 500-600 ml. But if you rarely brew more than 300 ml at a time, 01 will be more convenient and handy.The ideal grind size for a V60 is medium-fine – not as fine as table salt, but not as coarse as sand. This size allows for optimal extraction while preventing over-extraction, which can lead to bitterness.

Why is V60 called V60?
Why V60? V stands for cone-shaped filers, whereas 60 represents the sloping angle of the dripper’s sides. Simple! This dripper was brought to the coffee geeks’ attention by the third-wave coffee revolution, which is all about quality coffee and pour-over methods in place of espresso italiano. The V60 was introduced in 2004. The V stands for the device’s cone shape, and 60 represents the 60-degree angle of its cone. This design is not just aesthetically pleasing; it plays a crucial role in controlling the flow rate, ensuring an optimal extraction of flavours from the coffee grounds.
