Hario, which means "King of Glass" in Japanese, is Japan's largest glassware company that has been producing specialty chemical utensils for more than 90 years. Hario mainly produces high-quality household products, focusing on coffee and tea brewing utensils, and its glassware is heat resistant and can withstand temperature differences of 250 degrees. Hario's products cover the common brewing utensils on the market, with strong practicality and reliable quality, with exquisite and durable characteristics have an important position in the coffee industry, many of the fist products are highly regarded by many coffee fans.
The filter bowl seems to only support the function of the filter paper, but the different shape and structure of the filter bowl will affect the drip speed of the coffee, and thus affect the flavor performance of the coffee. Hario's V60 bowl has won the GOOD DESIGN Award in Japan, and its unique 60-degree conical cup shape has been praised as "one of the easiest to extract perfect coffee". Its long spiral rib gives the coffee ground more room for expansion, and with a larger single-hole water outlet, it can more directly reflect the influence of grind on drip filtration speed, the larger the coffee particles, the faster the drip filtration speed, and the stronger the playability. Extraction with V60 is characterized by a pronounced aroma, rich layering, bright acidity, and compatibility with different types of coffee beans. However, if a novice wants to control this filter cup well, he needs a certain amount of brewing practice, otherwise it is easy to extract under-extraction.
In addition to the common glass, resin, and ceramic bowls, the V60 bowl is also available in metal. The ceramic version has the best thermal insulation performance and minimizes the temperature loss during the coffee brewing process. There will be slight differences in the size of the ribs and spout holes of different materials, but they have little effect on the extraction, and you can adjust the grind and water filling speed to adapt to different coffee beans to extract the perfect coffee in your heart. The resin model is the lowest priced model and the most popular entry-level bowl. The transparent resin bowl allows for a better observation of the drip rate.
The pour-over coffee pot is designed to easily control the thickness of the water flow in the hand-pour, making it the perfect companion for the filter cup. Hario's stainless steel pour-over pot VKB is one of the most classic hand-poured pots, with a gooseneck thin spout design, a rubber plug at the interface between the body and the spout to make the water flow more stable, and the thickness and thickness of the water flow are easy to control, suitable for novices, the price ranges from 300-400 yuan, and brass materials are available. Another EVKT adds sensors and LCD panels on the basis of VKB, with intelligent temperature control function, and the price is nearly double that of VKB, which is more convenient and practical. If you use a pour-over pot frequently and require a high water temperature, then the electric pour-over kettle EVKT is definitely a worthwhile investment.
Hario's French presses, siphons, and ice drip pots are all made of heat-resistant glass, which are of good quality and feel, and the siphon and French press are all decent products. The taste of coffee brewed in a siphon pot will be more mellow and balanced than that of hand brewing, and it needs to be used with an external heat source, which is more cumbersome to operate, but it is playable and ornamental. Hario's siphon pot is generally used with an alcohol lamp or a halogen oven, which is safer than an alcohol lamp and heats up slower.
Ice drip coffee can be said to be the new favorite of the coffee industry in recent years, characterized by an extraction time of more than 6 hours, relatively weak acidity and bitterness, while also retaining a certain coffee aroma, its refreshing taste is especially suitable for hot summer. Hario's most classic WDC-6 ice drip pot is priced at about 3,000 yuan, with a valve to adjust the drip speed, which can adapt to different roasting degrees of coffee beans, exquisite and durable. Another SHIZUKU ice drip pot is priced at about 500 yuan, the drip speed is uncontrollable, and its integrated design body can be directly put into the refrigerator, which is easy to use, and is a cost-effective household ice drip kettle.
