HOW TO MAKE POUR OVER COFFEE (v60)
IN THIS GUIDE WE'LL GO OVER HOW TO MAKE COFFEE WITH A V60
Making coffee with a V60 is a great way to extract some of the more floral and delicate notes in a coffee. It takes a bit more equipment and prep time to make compared to methods like the french press, but the quality of the brew makes it all worth it in our opinion.

STEP 1:
MEASURE & BOIL WATER
Put a kettle on the stovetop or fire up that instant water boiler. This step takes the longest so let's start here.

STEP 2:
GRIND THE BEANS
Set your grinder between a fine and medium setting. Grind about 2 tablespoons of coffee per 6oz of water (60 grams / liter of water to be more precise)

STEP 3:
WET FILTER & ADD THE GRINDS
Wet the filter with warm water (this rinses and pre-heats the brewer), allow the water to drain, then pour the water out while leaving the filter sealed. Add the grinds.

STEP 4:
LET IT BLOOM
Take the water off of the boil and allow it to set for around 30 seconds. Then pour a small amount of water in the v60 and allow the coffee to bloom for about 30 seconds.

STEP 5:
POUR WITH CARE
At 2:30 begin pouring again for 30 additional seconds until you reach around 750 grams. The coffee should finish draining around the 4:30 to 5 min mark. If the coffee takes longer to drain try making the grind more coarse.
