The Gold Standard in Pour Over Coffee.

Since its introduction in 2005, the Hario V60 has become the most widely used manual dripper in specialty coffee — in home kitchens, competition brewbars, and cafés around the world. There's a reason it's everywhere: it works. The V60's elegant simplicity gives you direct control over every variable that matters — grind size, water temperature, pour rate, and contact time — and rewards the effort with a clean, nuanced, extraordinarily expressive cup.

The Dune colorway brings a warm, earthy taupe finish to the iconic silhouette, making it as beautiful on your counter as it is functional in your hands.

What Makes the V60 Different

• 60° Conical Angle — the cone shape creates a deeper coffee bed than flat-bottomed brewers, allowing water to flow toward the center and extend contact time with the grounds for a more even, expressive extraction.
• Spiral Ribs — the interior spiral ridges create air pockets between the ceramic and paper filter, allowing coffee grounds to expand fully during the bloom and promoting even saturation throughout the brew.
• Single Large Hole — unlike restricted-flow drippers, the V60's open bottom gives you complete control. Pour slowly for a heavier, bolder body; pour quickly for a lighter, more delicate cup.
• Arita-yaki Ceramic Construction — made from a traditional style of Japanese ceramic with a 400-year history, each dripper is handcrafted by a local artisan in Japan. Ceramic retains heat exceptionally well, maintaining a stable brewing temperature from start to finish.
• Brews 1–4 Cups — versatile enough for a single cup or a full server for guests.
• Dishwasher Safe — easy cleanup, no fuss.
• Small Footprint — sits neatly on most mugs and carafes. Compact enough for small kitchens and travel kits.
• Measuring Spoon Included — polypropylene measuring spoon comes in the box.

Pour Over, Your Way

The V60 is beloved in specialty coffee for one key reason: it doesn't brew coffee for you — it lets you brew coffee. Every choice you make affects what's in your cup. Want to highlight the bright, floral notes in an Ethiopian natural? Use a finer grind and a slower, controlled pour. Brewing a washed Central American that benefits from clarity? A slightly coarser grind and a faster flow rate will open it up beautifully.

The Dune V60 pairs perfectly with the coffees we source at Everyday People Coffee & Tea — whether that's our floral Ethiopia, our balanced Honduras, or our complex Bali. Pour over brewing is where great coffee truly shines.

Pro Tips for the Best V60 Brew

• Pre-heat the dripper with hot water before brewing to maximize heat retention and stabilize temperature throughout extraction.
• Use a gooseneck kettle for precise, controlled pouring — essential for consistent results.
• Bloom your grounds first: pour just enough water to saturate them (about 2x the coffee weight) and wait 30–45 seconds before continuing.
• Use Hario 02 paper filters, sold separately.

FAQ Section

What size filters does the V60 02 use? The Size 02 dripper uses Hario V60 02 paper filters, sold separately. We recommend picking up a pack to complete your setup.

What's the difference between the V60 size 01 and 02? The 01 brews 1–2 cups and is smaller in size. The 02 is the most popular size, brewing 1–4 cups and fitting most standard mugs and servers. It's the go-to for home and café use.

Why choose ceramic over plastic or glass? Ceramic retains heat better than plastic and is more durable than glass, making it ideal for home brewing where consistent temperature matters. The Arita-yaki ceramic used here also adds a beautiful handcrafted quality unique to this version.

Do I need a gooseneck kettle? While not required, a gooseneck kettle is strongly recommended. It gives you precise control over pour rate and direction — both of which directly affect the taste of your cup with the V60.

Is it dishwasher safe? Yes — the ceramic body is dishwasher safe, making cleanup easy.

What grind size should I use? A medium to medium-fine grind is a great starting point for the V60. Adjust based on your brew time — if it's running fast and the cup tastes thin, grind finer; if it's slow and bitter, go slightly coarser.
