Make sure you have a goose neck tea kettle (if you don't already), which makes it so easy to poor hot water into the glass coffee dripper.

Boil your water, put the filter in then rinse it, coffee in, water in, boom

Second, use more coffee grounds and hotter water

, it provides the absolute no question Best tasting cup of coffee better than espresso, french press, aeropress, impress, chemex, cold brew, and way way way better than Keruig Crap coffee makers, i have just about every coffee brewer I see others say the water goes through to fast that is because they atre NOT brewing the coffee correctly

They are quite durable, I have only broken one after submerging it in cold water after using it to drip hot coffee

If the material can stay under 100 degree Fahrenheit temp day after day for 10 years without developing cracks, you can be sure it'll keep the new look for a long time in the kitchen no matter how hot the water gets

As you start your pouring the water over the ground beans, you'll want to add just enough brewing water to wet all of the grounds and then stop pouring

Add enough water to saturate the coffee grounds using concentric circles and wait 30 seconds8

You do need their kettle so that you can add the hot water very gradually.

Add coffee grounds to the hot (NOT BOILING) water and stir to ensure even mixture.

However, you need to be a little less nerdy while backpacking and not bringing a vessel that allows you to accurately pour hot water in a specific pattern

No bulky coffee maker, just boil the water and your ready to go.

Then slowly pour the water over.4) Use properly hot water.

After about six minutes, pick it up and shake it vertically up and down a bit to get rid of any excess water, and dump any water from what it was sitting on, (assuming this is the cup or vessel you plan to use,) into the sink, your house-plant, whatever.

Now, this is the really important part and might be what folk who have complained about the hole have missed: pour the hot water SLOWLY on top of the coffee in a circular motion being careful so the water doesn't directly hit the filter

I use about 40-70 ml of hot water to "wash" the filter.

I had to pre-heat the V60 dripper with hot water and then wrap a towel around

Tip: run it under hot water first (and rinse the filter of course) to bring the thing up to temperature

As another reviewer said, it doesn't allow enough time for the coffee to sit in the hot water because it drains through way too fast

slowly pour over hot water slighly under boiling and voila

I noticed that when the coffee drains out through the bottom, the hot water still drips off the bottom plastic pieces

It worked very well, but I began to worry about the health effects of using plastic with hot water and had similar concerns about putting it in the dishwasher.

(It has a handle and takes about 6 minutes in the microwave to boil 1 pint of water).Makes great coffee

The water goes more quickly through the coffee thanks to the design and the lighter filters

Once every thing is set I just fill the filter to the top until I have passed enough water for the amount of coffee I am making

The hole at the bottom of the cone is huge, and does little to slow down the water from escaping.

You see, when you introduce the coffee grounds to the hot water, the trapped CO2 in the ground bean must be able to escape and bubble out

(~2:00 - 2:30 minutes:seconds)Add hot milk or hot water to dilute to your preferred strength.

sidenote: use the Hario filter, they can handle the hot water vs Trader Joes filter, they rip right through!

I use hot water to rinse the filter, then use locally roasted beans with a medium/fine grind (table salt, maybe slightly coarser) at 26g, saturate with 40g of water with a quick stir and let sit for 30 seconds to let the grinds bloom and release the gasses

As mentioned I started by pouring just a bit of hot water on the coffee grounds to get them moistened then poured the rest of the water to finish off.

I use 3 filters just to slow the water down

<> using a swirling motion pour just enough hot water over the grounds to get them all wet

The Hario Dripper design allows you to customize your brew based on water temperature and grind.

Most nice hotels have a coffee device in the room, so you can at least make hot water and then use your dripper (make sure to bring fresh ground coffee with you, too.)

I use the Hario Buono Drip Kettle with the small spout to pour hot water over this dripper

I feel more comfortable pouring hot water onto glass, rather than onto plastic, and the coffee tastes better with this dripper!

I pre-heat it with hot water before filling and pouring the coffee

Large drain hole allows water to drain out quickly, so the hot water has to be poured over very slowly

whatever you are dripping your coffee into).The design is good, it won't tip over like another brand I've tried-pour hot water from your gooseneck kettle over the filter to rinse it and heat the dripper and mug, then pour the water out of your mug-pour your freshly ground coffee beans in the dripper and give it a little shake to level the grounds.-pour a little hot water over the grounds to "bloom" the coffee for 30 seconds, gradually add the appropriate amount of water, and when it has dripped through you wind up with delicious coffee

I'll stop at bringing my gooseneck kettle, though, so it may get a tad messy pouring hot water from a mug.

While you were prepping the dripper your water was boiling

That's next on my list, doing good with a standard kettle, but I see where the drawback is when trying to slowly and evenly pour hot water over the grounds.

and I've got a good solution that needs only clean boiling water and a travel mug.

So while your hot water is being filtered through the grounds, the water temperature is not lost as rapidly as when it goes through a plastic holder

And then, I pulled out the old coffee grinder from the back of the cabinet, and dug out the bag of whole beans on the bottom of the freezer, and switched out spring water for my abysmal softened tap water

Our electric kettle has a spout at the top and it can be tough to get and control a fine stream of hot water (but it is manageable,

but in a day and age when everything is automated and electronic its really nice to just boil some water and start my concentric circles.

I really do not like kcups for the waste and the plastic/hot water combo.

You are not suppose to dump all the water in at once,It is a SLOW Pour over

I did this, I also hovered over the process slowly dripping hot boiling water (hoping the water stayed hot) over the coffee and even then, I'd occasionally experience the catastrophic collapse

Just drizzle enough water to soak the grounds for 30 seconds-ish, and slowly pour in the rest of the water

But, the hole in the bottom is about the size of a nickel and allows the water to flow through the coffee grinds to fast

This dripper works great for the pour-over coffee method, I was tempted to buy the plastic model to save a few bucks, but the glass can be preheated with hot water while rinsing the filter, that helps the coffee to retain temperature when it reaches the server, (that you have hopefully pre-heated) besides I hate Plastic

Soak your filter in hot water before using of course.

Delicious coffee in the time it takes to boil water!

If you're looking at this product, you're probably already at least starting to become a coffee nerd, but just to make sure it's stated: you do need good beans, preferably a grinder to give you fresh grounds, and water at the right temperature to get the best results, but that's the case with any type of coffee process and tool.

Using the 3 minute pour over method gives a too bitter coffee for my taste, but a 20 second bloom followed by gently pouring the rest of the 12 oz of hot water at once gives the

I just keep some coffee that I ground over the weekend in a tupperware container in my desk and use the hot water tap in the office machine to fill a travel tumbler full of hot water and take it back to my desk

I noticed that when the coffee drains out through the bottom, the hot water still drips off the bottom plastic pieces

It's really just pouring hot water over coffee grounds in a dripper

Of course you have to pour hot water on the filter of the Hario to wet the filter and to preheat the cup

One must have the right water pot and filters with the right ground

After boiling the water the whole brewing process takes about 2-3 minutes

I didn't realize that they used a 100% plastic pour over dripper and just fill it with the whole order's worth of hot water to brew (vs the pour every 30 seconds method recommended in the Hario instruction booklet)

Soon as the vessel is cool, (or if it was already cold because you've cold-brewed today's coffee,) rinse it out, put fresh water in it, add appropriate quantity of good, coarse, quality grounds and stir, then stick that right in the fridge for tomorrow.

Anyway... then it's just a matter of a quick rinse of the coffee cone in clean water, and it's ready for the next use.

What I like to do to help myself not make a mess by overspilling is to portion out my water into the hot water kettle I use

Oh, and no plastic on the hot water like the aero press.

When you're brewing one cup at a time, do you seriously want to measure cold water into your kettle in 6-oz amounts, heat it up, and do the pour-over

The water stays hotter as it passes through the Hario.

I boil my water, water a few seconds and slowly pour the water

You can fold it slightly to fit the Hario dripper, especially if you rinse it in hot water first as is recommended for this brewing method anyway

We use an induction cook plate to heat the water, so it takes very little time for us to make a cup of coffee since our water is ready in under a minute

If you use a filter that isn't designed to support the water and coffee, you'll probably experience ripped filters often

If you are using tepid water, you'll get tepid results.

If you are a purist that doesn't want any plastic coming into contact with hot water this cup may not be for you

While I feed the cat, prepare my breakfast and pack my lunch, I boil water in the electric kettle, and make a fine cup of drip coffee.

In the morning just place this dripper with about 1 1/4 tablespoon of coffee on your coffee mug and pour enough water through it to fill the mug

My method in general:-I use water at @ 200F. Or bring your water to boil, let it sit off the boil for a minute or two & then pour.

The “don’t let the water directly touch the filter” guidance is rather more pouring and repouring than I care for when I’m trying to get my first cup in me in the morning

It boils water in less than 2 minutes.

This ensures good water to coffee contact, and honestly you can make the smoothest most flavorful brew

I think since the time that the coffee grounds are in contact with hot water is short that its probably best to grind your coffee as fine as possible

Once the coffee grinds are fully wetted, the hot water will dissolve the solubles (also called solutes) in the beans' cells.

The grooves in the Hario lead the water around and down the machine, while the coffee drips perfectly from the pointed filter tip

The water drains quickly and evenly, and the coffee tastes great!

I (mostly) follow all the instructions; wet the Hario filter with hot water, put ground beans in the shape of mini volcano, pour a little hot water to let the grounds "

Pour enough water over your grounds to soak the coffee,just to the point where it begins to drip - then stop pouring and wait 30-60 seconds.

I ran hot water through the filter and kept the cup with hot water while the kettle boiled.

That is when you can introduce the hot water to the grounds in earnest

The shape of the funnel insures the hot water to flow through at the proper rate

You don't really need a special kettle to boil the water unless you want to get fancy, which isn't necessary to get great results.

Up at or near 212 degrees F, (the temperature of boiling pure water, at sea-level, or at that atmospheric pressure, anyway,) the extraction is done in the time it takes for water to seep through a couple inches of coffee-grounds under the force of gravity, hence the reason most automatic coffee makers work the way they do.

Make sure you have a goose neck tea kettle (if you don't already), which makes it so easy to poor hot water into the glass coffee dripper.

Boil some water...put coffee in your filter..

+ 2oz hot water after brew (to make up for loss of water soaked into the grounds)

Wanting to get the most out of the grounds I even poured hot water over a second cup and was able to get a pretty good cup of coffee out of the second cup, just start with a bit more coffee than a single cup portion.

drip coffee tastes like hot water to me after using the V60

While the term ‘a lot’ is a relative term, when camping, water is at a premium and you can’t afford to waste any (I’m taking about camping, not living in a 40-foot RV, hooked up to sewer and water, and is bigger than most people’s apartment).

I think the coffee may taste better/stronger to let the hot water stay in a little bit

(dump water in sink)3

After rinsing the paper filter, add grounds and moisten them with hot water.

By using cooler (though still hot) water, you sharply reduce the amount of certain chemical compounds that you find in coffee.

Had to give up on my k-cup machine because the water wasn’t getting hot enough.

Make sure to preheat with hot water, i recommend getting a goose neck kettle like the hario one to get the most out of your coffee ( Fresh roasted and ground beans make a huge difference too)

We don't have a dishwasher, so this has only have been rinsed in hot water, by hand.

Given we have a Bunn with instant availability of hot water, this device brews the perfect 10-15 oz cup

Though it has plastic components, the plastic does not come into contact with the hot water

I did not like pouring hot water onto plastic but for years it seemed there were no alternatives

As an aside, the fineness of grounds will play a small role here, since the water and coffee will be exposed to each other for several minutes, the finer the grind the less time it will have to sit in the water, I believe, BUT the longer it will take to get through the FILTER, so in the end, best probably to use a fairly coarse grind, and let the magic of the polar-nature of water molecules do the heavy lifting for you. :-)

but if you don't pre heat the ceramic with hot water it will suck the heat out of your pour over water and grounds which can lead to less extraction of the grounds

Really don't like the idea of hot water on plastic like other drip downs

You will ruin your tea or coffee - BLEH!-I always put hot water in my insulated carafe to warm it prior to brewing in to it.

* Water which is actually close to boiling (standard coffee machines are not the best at this

Gotta pour the hot water slow and highly advise getting one of those bottom pour style kettles

Water boils here at

just pour hot (not boiling) water over ground beans and enjoy

Easy to clean and making coffee is literally as easy as boiling water.

Simply put a size 02 coffee filter, fill it with your choice of ground coffee and pour hot water

rinse them with some hot water to get out the paper taste (throw this water away) and put in your coffee

Only problem is if you are in a hurry this will take a little while because you have to manually pour your hot water into it and wait for it to filter through before pouring more water.

I use the hot water dispenser at my sink.

I utilize a Bonavita variable temperature kettle for my process, it makes keeping the water in the right range very easy.- Some of the ratios I use is 27 grams of coffee for 14oz of finished product, or 19 grams for 10 oz finished product

(Don't like to put hot/boiling water into a plastic container.

oh, and go to the new york times archive and find the recommended procedure for brewing the coffee (more than just grind it and pour over the hot water)--it really does make a huge difference in the final cup.

I placed the coffee grind and poured the hot water per instruction - the coffee came out fine and no signs of clogging from folded area.

We feel we can trust that the materials used aren't toxic, which is important for something you're pouring hot water through daily.

I boiled water and used a regular shaped filter that I molded into a cone sort of shape

Inexcusable for glass supposedly designed to have very hot water poured over it time and again

Makes a great cup of coffee and works great even though I accidentally pour the hot water over the sides instead of the center of the canister as you are supposed to do almost every time.

It's not quite hot enough for me even with warming the mug and dripper with warm water before

I have used plastic dripper (another brand) before, and was weary of the big hole in the middle (thinking hot water would drain through too quickly)

The water temp and grind size of course, the pour technique, the larger pour hole allows control over drop rate as compared to some other types, and the paper filter allows a cleaner cup than typical with a French press

And it's about as environmentally sustainable as making coffee can get

Works as it should.

I worked as a

So while your hot water is being filtered through the grounds, the water temperature is not lost as rapidly as when it goes through a plastic holder

I've tried a few other methods of brewing however none have been as effective or ease as with drip coffee

Didn't seem like it would work as I expected, so I returned it.

The BEST way to make coffee--except for those who prefer some coffee grounds in their coffee (as in the French Press)

Works as it should it's fairly simple
