Review on Hario Plastic Coffee Dripper Clear by Alison Parker

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Clear up some misunderstandings

This brewer is amazing, one of two industry standards. There are a lot of misconceptions about "how coffee is brewed" in reviews of this brewery and I'd like to help clear that up if I can. This brewery doesn't brew coffee for you, they brew it for you! The water about it determines how good the coffee comes out the other end, but this coffee maker has differences from other coffee makers that allow you to brew coffee differently, let me point out a few of them. The V60 in particular has a big hole in the floor. So when you pour water over ground coffee, the brewing mechanism offers no resistance and slows down the brewing process. If your brewing process is taking too short or too long, you need to change the coarseness or fineness of your coffee. grind. Do you buy ground coffee? Then you might want to check out another industry standard, the Kalita Wave, a flat bottomed dripper that has 3 tiny holes at the bottom that will slow down your brew so you don't have to worry about getting that perfect grind. on the V60 leaves some space between the paper filter and the brewer to prevent the brewer from sucking up your cup or serving glass. There are other fakes from this brewer (like Bialetti) that are much cheaper and can be preformed. Similarly, this one is just made better and with a lot more care with your beer. Is it worth the extra price? That's up to you, but I prefer a real coffee maker that everyone else uses and I know works best for me to make a good cup of coffee. In summary, I can recommend this coffee machine. anyone interested in making better coffee and willing to put in more effort (and money) into it. If you want to do that then I definitely recommend watching some YouTube tutorials, my favorites are by James Hoffman and Chris Buck. If you really don't want to put in the extra effort or money to make the best possible mug, I'd recommend going with something less complicated, like a kalit wave. That's my 2 cents, have a nice day :)
