Hario V60 Drip Coffee Decanter, 700ml, Black

I mainly needed a new carafe but for the money I figured I’d give this a go. The glass feels sturdy and cleans well. The plastic dripper sits nicely inside and doesn’t absorb as much heat as my previous ceramic one.

Me gusto hacer café con esta v60, se extraer bien la molienda

This is so much easier to use than the ceramic V60 sitting on top of the Hario decanter. Much less heat loss than the ceramic and much easier to swirl

it is the perfect way to make pour over coffee. my partner really enjoys using it

I have had a V60 cone for awhile so this was an upgrade pick for me while the cone has a new home with my college-bound niece. While its not as beautiful as its obvious competitor the chemex, the carafe is still quite attractive and the differences in appearance have some utilitarian benefit. The collar clearly looks like silicone but it has a nice matte finish that still looks good and the button makes it easy to take off and wash (and it all goes in the dishwasher!), unlike the chemex collar which I find more fussy to remove. The V60 insert also means you can use the V60 filters which I prefer over Chemexs thicker filters. So while I like both, the V60 carafe will probably continue to be my daily driver because of its easy cleanup and its papers while the chemex will come out when I have guests and want to impress.

The glass is very nice, though it feels a little thin. Not cheap feeling but it doesnt give the confidence that its robust and that one wrong move on a solid material will mean cracking or breaking it The black belt thing is great. Its very smooth and keeps the heat away well and is big enough you can hold it a little carelessly without fear that some skin will touch the hot glass. Its also fairly stretchy so removing it isnt too much of a pain. The plastic funnel is very nice, It doesnt fit perfectly so if move it around you can hear the plastic move around and hit the glass, but the gap isnt massive. You could call that a flaw; but that also means that its very easy to pick up the plastic funnel and do a swirl while brewing. It feels like quality plastic, has little feat so it can stand on its own when removed from the decanter, very easy to clean. The glass itself on the outside is easy to clean, but getting a hand though the middle to clean the bottom with a sponge is very hard. Either a bottle cleaner or... hope that what you can manage is good enough, or a dish washer. Though Imo, a little rinse after use is good enough for a while. As for making coffee, well, I suppose that depends on you and your technique. Its made me very good coffee and Im very happy to have it.

I use this every morning to brew 2 cups of coffee to take to work in a thermos. Its the perfect size for this application (I’ve brewed up to 600ml of coffee into this without an issue), cleans up easily, and looks good on the counter even when it isn’t being used. I’ve had so much fun getting into all the variables of pour over and have mostly dialed in what produces consistently good coffee. Watch James Hoffmann or Lance Hedrick guides on youtube to set you down the right path.

I love the coffee I made using this but mine came with no sleeve that wraps around the decanter. I need the sleeve or I will be sending this one back.

Fun little pour over. As a bonus you get a plastic pour over that can be used independent of this. This can make up to 2 American cups of coffee.

Coming from using the moka pot and french press, I didnt think the V60 would brew a rich and tasty coffee. After I received my V60, I tried it out right away and followed the instructions. I was blown away by how quick making a cup was, but also how rich the coffee tasted. I would definitely recommend this to my friends who want a quick brew without sacrificing taste and money.
