Review on Hario Coffee Dripper Silver VDM 02HSV by Dale Toth

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Sold out Size 03 Dripper

I like the shape, the grooves (grooves?) and the rubber gripping flange. This is the same dripper that is offered as an option in the Hario V60 drip stand kit. I bought the stand just to see if I like it as I was planning to use my Hario V60, 03 (clear plastic). Plastic V60, 03 doesn't seem to match the looks. The plastic dropper looks heavy and clunky. I really wish they made a version 03 to match this stand. Hario will sell thousands and thousands due to its increased versatility. Hario or someone else please make a metal dripper size 03 and maybe also a size 04 dripper with rubber. At the moment I'm using a Bolio 04 strainer with Hario V60 paper, 03 with this dripper as a funnel. I thought I should set the OXO cone grinder 1 click larger. So far, no significant difference can be seen. This works quite well because the bolio filter drip speed is a few seconds faster than any paper filter I've experimented with. Very, very minimal restrictions, if any. I highly recommend this beautiful dripper.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Crumpled
