help Hario V60 FAQ
Why is the Hario V60 shaped like a cone?
The V60 uses a 60-degree cone shape, which is where the name comes from. Its spiral ribs and large single hole let water flow through quickly when the grind and pouring technique are right.
Which Hario V60 size should one person buy?
Most solo brewers choose the V60 01 or V60 02. The 02 is the more flexible size because it can make one large cup or enough coffee for two smaller servings.
Does the Hario V60 need special paper filters?
Yes, it uses cone-shaped V60 filters rather than flat-bottom basket filters. Hario sells size 01, 02, and 03 filters to match the dripper size.
How is the Hario V60 different from a Chemex?
The V60 is usually faster and more technique-sensitive because it has one large drain hole and thinner paper filters. A Chemex uses thicker bonded filters and often produces a cleaner, lighter-bodied brew.
