Your comprehensive field guide for how to brew the perfect V60
V60 is an incredibly versatile brew method, producing a clean & clear cup. Giving great results for all different types & roasts of coffee.
Coffee 16.5g
Water 230ml
Temperature 95°C
Grind Filter or medium-fine
The Grind
Weigh out 16.5g of coffee and grind to a medium, sand-like, consistency.
Rinse
Place a paper filter in the top of your V60 and rinse it with hot water to remove any paper taste and preheat the server. Remove the rinsing water.
Add to filter
Add the ground coffee into the filter making sure it is level as you do so.
Weigh
Rest the server on the scales and zero them.
The Bloom
Pour 50g of water gently in the centre of the coffee and work slowly outwards to the edge of the coffee bed ensuring it is evenly wet. This should be done in 30 seconds. You will start to see bubbling as gasses are released, this is known as the ‘bloom’.
Start to Pour
Start pouring the rest of the water moving in a circular motion from the centre outwards ensuring you’re as close to the coffee bed as you can be, before returning to the centre.
Time to Serve
Continue steadily pouring the water until you reach an end time of 2 minutes 30 seconds and a total weight of 250ml.
Enjoy
Discard the spent filter paper. Serve and Enjoy!
