This week we will be brewing a V60 pour-over based on Scott Rao’s method. In the mornings I like to fill a carafe with enough coffee for me and my partner. The carafe I use tends to hold 600ml of coffee so I’ve adjusted the Raos recipe to ensure I have the perfect amount. 600ml also usually works out to be enough for 2 cups of coffee, plus a little extra.

Here is the link to the original video: Scott Rao’s V60

As always, I recommend first checking out his video and then coming back to use this guide as a reference.

This updated method makes 2 cups of coffee

Let’s get started.

What you’ll need:

  • Hario V60 (plastic) dripper
  • V60 filter
  • Scale
  • Timer
  • Gooseneck kettle (or another kettle that allows you to control the pour)
  • Water
  • 37g Coffee beans (ground medium. Setting 16 on the Baratza Encore.)
  • Spoon
  • Carafe

Set up:

  1. Start by filling up your kettle and setting it to boil.
  2. Open the paper…
