Hey guys, Zach here with Alternate Brewing. This morning I'm going to show you how to use the Hario V60. Before we get started, you want to make sure you've got a few things all available on the Alternate Brewing website. One cup, V60 paper filter, one cup, Hario V60 vessel, kettle, receiving vessel, decano or mug, scales and timer, 15 grams of filter oracid coffee, 240 grams of water and a cup to drink out of. To get started, I'll be filtering the filter paper along the seam and insert into the V60. With your hot water pouring in and through the filter paper, free eating the decanter, getting rid of any excess paper taste. Get rid of this water, water your plants, tear off your scales. Put in the coffee into the V60. Give it a bit of a tap to settle the bed nice and evenly. To start the brewing process, we always start with a bit of a bloom. Water just off the boil and a bloom we start in from the outside working our way in nice and slowly. We're using 15 grams of coffee, so for the bloom I'm using about 30 grams of water, generally a ratio of 2 to 1 and a bloom being about 30 seconds in time. Now we start to fill up the remaining 240 mills total. Nice and evenly working our way around the coffee bed. Slow and steady for us to not agitate bed too far and get any of the bitter taste coming through. I've used a ratio of 15 grams, 240 mills today, but trust your tongue and kind of go with how you like to brew your coffee. There's a lot of variables that can come into play here as with any science, things like agitations, water temperature, volume of water, volume of coffee, airflow, all come into play. You can use these to your benefit to really get the cup that you like to drink. It should take roughly about two minutes 30 for your total volume to drip through. A good way of troubleshooting for future brews is through tracking your times. If it's draining too quickly, then it's an indication that your grind is too coarse and if it's taking too long to get your total brew through, it's an indication that your grind might be too fine. But again, trust your tongue and then go with something that suits the way you like to drink. So that's our 240 mills drip through here now. A couple of swirls and then into my cup. And there's your cup of coffee for mine for your own, now you know how to.
