Hario V60 Ceramic V-Shaped Cone Coffee Dripper with Heat Retention,300 Millilitres, White, Size 02, 2

Prior to this I had a combined Hario glass jug with V60 coffee dripper, which I accidentally smashed. Quite distraught at the idea of going back to my cafetiere (all those horrid grounds at the bottom of my cup, and less tasty coffee in the morning!) I decided to replace it, but then decided to buy this - essentially just the dripper element of my previous manual dripper - instead. The reasons for this were several: I had bought a nice coffee pot in a charity shop and thought I might be able to use this dripper with the pot (I can! It fits perfectly!); I always felt the glass jug lost heat very quickly; and finally, this seemed to be an easier way to make one cup over a mug rather than making a huge pot (my parter does not drink a lot of coffee). This product exceeded my expectations by looking beautiful and by fitting brilliantly on my coffee pot. If you usually have cafetiere coffee, I suggest giving a dripper a go - they are extremely easy to use (I am not a morning person, and have to get up very early for my job, and can easily manage to make a decent cup!), you get no gunky grounds in the bottom of your cup, and it is extremely easy to clean (just throw the filters in the bin and give the dripper a wash - no more scooping out gunky grounds or trying to wash them down the drain in the fear this choice might come back to haunt you in the form of a slimy blockage). I have never used a dripper other than the Hario brand - they are a little more pricey than others, but you can always give a cheap plastic version of the V60 a go first if you want to try it out. They are generally considered to make the best coffee, and I am pleased with the result every time - however, be aware that the filters are a little pricey and not easy to find in your local supermarket, so you will probably need to order them from Amazon or elsewhere. A different style of filter might be easier to find filters for, although in this 'internet age' there is really no cause to fuss. I can thoroughly recommend the manual filter dripper from Hario - it has changed my life (in a small but noticible way - at the end of the day, it is only coffee). However, be prepared to buy better quality coffee - the filter makes it easier to taste the coffee, so horrible coffee which is just about drinkable in a cafetiere will not cut the mustard with a filter!

Nothing wrong with the item. It is great - the iconic V60 in ceramic! Very cool! The bad review would be for Amazon Packaging and if I could give them zero stars, then I would. The item was boxed by the manufacturer but Amazon shipped it out in a thin brown paper bag. It arrived smashed into about 12 irreparable shards. The Returns Procedure was great - except that the replacement also arrived in the Amazon thin brown paper bag and was once again smashed to smithereens. Amazon’s Customer Service refunded me the cost and said they’d review the packaging for this item. What a shame - what a waste. I do not dare re-order the same item in case it arrives broken once again. So I’ve gone for the safer (but not so cool) plastic version. Very disappointing :(((

The original. I use it everyday and wouldn't want anything else anymore. For best performance, I buy the adequate Hario filters. Easy to clean, very sturdy, pleasure to use, makes great japanese style coffee.

The ceramic gives the filter a nice sturdy feel, beautifully made. I have bought more than one, and arrived in good condition.

Good Christmas gift

First off, the V60 brewing method is by far my favourite. You can keep your expensive machines, this simple method produces the best results with minimum hassle. I've used the plastic version of this model for a few years now, I bought the plastic because it was cheap and if I didn't like the method I hadn't wasted much. It proved to be fantastic and I wondered if I shouldn't have bought the ceramic. The plastic beastie soldiered on though giving me great service until finally it snapped. No biggie, I'd definitely got my money's worth. So to buy a new one. Splashed out on the 'upgrade' to ceramic. First impressions, it feels nice and looks nice. Pleased. Come to use though a couple of issues, albeit minor. Firstly the fit. The papers just don't sit as well, the cone of the ceramic isn't quite the same profile as the plastic. It's smaller in height and internal, so the paper sits slightly proud of the top and doesn't settle in to the cone quite as well. It's not a big deal but it annoys me slightly. Secondly the construction itself. Being ceramic it has more heat capacity, the advertisement sells this as a plus. Maybe it is, but you should bear in mind that that heat capacity will initially suck the heat out of your brew. I get around this by using more hot water to soak and flush the paper before adding grinds, thus getting the ceramic up to heat before brewing. Again, not a big deal but something I didn't have to worry about so much with the plastic. Summary: a great product but not necessarily an upgrade over plastic thus not as good value.

They take the heat out of the coffee despite pouring boiling water over it first to warm up- too much of a faff and the coffee is not warm enough by the time it drips through to the cup (I also pour boiling water into the cup to warm it first). I also put a saucer over to try to keep the heat in..

Tengo un v60 talla 2 que trabaja excelente para 800ml pero compre el 1 para hacer poco café y por taza y está genial. No se me enfría y los filtros tienen mejor costo. Lo recomiendo mucho para cantidades menores de café

Up my game in coffee making. Hario products always perform well

কফি ভক্তদের দুনিয়ায় ভি৬০ পদ্ধতিতে পোরওভার কফি তৈরির জন্য জাপানি সংস্থা হ্যারিয়োর এই ড্রিপার খুবই জনপ্রিয়। ভি৬০ পদ্ধতিতে কফি বানানো মোটেই সহজ কাজ নয়, ব্যাপারটা রপ্ত করতে বেশ সময় লাগে। সুস্বাদু কফি উপভোগ করতে গেলে সঠিক পদ্ধতির পাশাপাশি উপযুক্ত যন্ত্রপাতিও থাকা দরকার। বিক্রেতা ও আমাজনকে ধন্যবাদ ভারতে এটা নিয়ে আসার জন্য। আমি প্লাস্টিকের বদলে সেরামিকের ড্রিপার কিনলাম কারণ দীর্ঘমেয়াদি মাইক্রোপ্লাস্টিক ভক্ষণ মোটেই কাজের কথা নয়। এটি দেখতেও খুবই সুন্দর - দাম বেশী পড়লেও এর নিখুঁত ফিনিশ নিঃসন্দেহে আমার কফি তৈরির যন্ত্র-সম্ভারের শোভা বর্ধন করেছে। এটা ব্যবহারের পর গরম জলের ধারায় কিছুক্ষণ ধরলে সহজেই পরিষ্কার হয়ে যায়। এটা ডিশ‌ওয়াশারেও ধোয়া সম্ভব।

Una verdadera maravilla.

Love it. Everything is great with this little unit, no issues at all and perfect size for my single morning coffee.
