Hario V60 Drip-Assist

Useful thing to avoid buying a special kettle.

It has made my daily pourovers work flow even easier.

I was contemplating buying a gooseneck kettle. But this has completely taken care of that at a fraction of the cost. Very uniform pouring directly from my old electric kettle. Only fits a size 02 Hario dripper though and that's the only con that I could nit.

Great Product Makes Brewing easier! Use the centre one for bloom The outer one for brewing! Simple

Does not help in improving pour over coffee experience

Allows you to pour water from an ordinary kettle (so good if you don't have a special swan neck type) into a Hario V60/Switch type brewer without disturbing the coffee ground bed. If that is something you are eager to try as part of your brewing method/recipe, this could avoid the cost of a swan neck kettle. Just place on top and pour into the centre circle which fills up and flows into the outer circle. Both areas drip into the brewer thus spreading out and reducing the flow of water. Cheap and easy to use. Just rinse if it gets coffee on it.

Must have item for pour over, fantastic result for manual brewing

Works well Coffee is less extracted but can taste good

Ürün tasarımıyla basit bir plastik gibi gözükse de, pour over için inanılmaz güzel sonuçlar vermemi sağlıyor.

It does exactly what it is supposed to do: provide repeatable and consistent low agitation for pour overs. Will this always provide the best coffee possible: no. With a good grinder, an investment in a nice gooseneck kettle, a lot of reading up, watching videos and quite some practice you could make better coffee. The difference isn’t that big though. This can make an excellent and consistent cup when you dial in the grind size well. It only really touches almost boiling hot water, so required cleaning is very minimal. Every once in a while I was it with some soap only because it gives me peace of mind. It doesn’t ever look dirty. Things that this product offers: -The option to use a normal kettle that you probably already own with a very consistent and repeatable process. Pouring the exact same every time with a normal kettle can be a challenge. Even with a gooseneck it takes some practice. -Strongly reduced agitation of the coffee grounds and thereby reduced extraction. You know you are over-extracting when you get strong bitter flavors that take away from the experience. If it becomes too under-extracted and sour or lackluster you can either grind finer, use a higher water temperature or do both. I happily used this product before I bought a gooseneck. I have no regrets about this purchase. I knew it wasn’t worth trying to master a good technique with a normal kettle and found this product easy to use and cost effective. I liked the results too, I almost never had bad coffee. If I didn’t come across a very well priced fellow stagg I would still be using it a lot. Instead I kind of enjoy the challenge of getting every last bit out of a pour over with a gooseneck now. I can pull it out again for travel without a gooseneck when I want to go for a very low agitation for some coffees.
