Procedure

Coffee dripping is one of the most relaxing morning routines that you can easily achieve every day. Wake yourself up with the aromas of good coffee every morning by following the instruction video below!

  1. Fold the paper filter along the edges and fit it into your V60 dripper. 
  2. Rinse the filter paper with hot water to remove the papery taste and warm the filter. Discard the rinse water.
  3. Weigh out your preferred amount of coffee grounds into the V60 dripper.
  4. Level the coffee grounds by shaking the V60 dripper lightly. Wet the coffee grounds with hot water and steam the coffee beans for 30 seconds.
  5. Pour hot water in, drawing small circles from the centre of the dripper, slowly circling outwards, while ensuring that the water does not directly touch the paper.
  6. Allow the water to drip through within 3 minutes, and serve your coffee while hot!

 

Coffee is very subjective to your preference. Remember to play around with the coffee:water ratio, grind size, and water temperature to achieve your ideal cup!
