Awesome V60 Pour Over Set

Before you buy a pour over you must first understand that there is an art to using it. If you are not patient and precise, this brewing method is not for you. However, if you're into pourover, this is a great set, whether you're a beginner or more advanced. It's very affordable, yet just as functional as any other V60 pourover. The first thing that might be off-putting about this product is that the actual pour-over device is made out of plastic. But the case is made of durable, high-quality plastic. He does his job very well. I can't imagine a glass, ceramic or metal V60 making noticeably better coffee because of the material. It's easy to clean and you don't have to worry about it breaking when dropped. The included pot is a nice accessory if you don't already have one. It's also fine if you're trying to make more than 1 cup, although I don't think you can make more than 2-2 1/2 cups. However, the pot provides absolutely no insulation. You should make the coffee and serve it right to the table - and since it's for bottling, that's probably your intention as well. The only downside is that you have to use paper filters (is included). There are filling options with metal or other reusable filters. However, this is a personal preference. The main question is, will there be a good cup? Yes. It will take a little practice pouring, but you will make a very nice mug.
