Here’s how to get it done:

Tools for the job (*required)
Hario V60 Glass Dripper *
Measuring scoop or scale *
Hot water kettle
#2 Hario paper filters (with pointed tip, not flat tip)*
Coffee grinder (not pictured)
8, 12, or 16 oz Mug




Heat water on stovetop or electric kettle to boil
At sea level, water boils at 212 F – Let cool to about 203 degrees if you live at low elevation At high elevation (about 5000 ft) boiling point is about 203 Optimal brewing temp is about 198-203

Place paper filter in dripper, and set dripper atop mug (8, 12, 16 oz)

Measure coffee (adjust as needed to your taste)
By weight
16 g for 8 oz mug or
24 g for 12 oz mug
32 g for a 16 oz mug

By volume
2 T for 8 oz mug or
3 T for 12 oz mug
4 T for a 16 oz mug


Grind Coffee
Use fine drip setting (about texture of refined sugar)
Place ground coffee into paper filter in dripper

Brew (about 3 minutes)
Pour about 1/3 of the necessary water on all grinds to wet
Coffee will “bloom” or poof up
Let sit and drip into mug about 40-60 seconds
Pour another 1/3 of water, and let brew through
Pour final 1/3 of water and let brew through
(remember you only need the volume of water your cup can hold)

Sip & Enjoy!
