Hario V60 Dripper

The spiral ribs are designed to keep the paper filter from sticking to the walls of the dripper. This allows air to escape and ensures the coffee grounds can expand properly, which is essential for an even extraction.

No, the Hario V60 Glass Dripper is sold as a standalone unit. You will need to place it directly on top of your own carafe, mug, or a dedicated coffee server.

While the heatproof glass is durable, it is not recommended for the dishwasher. We suggest hand washing it with mild soap to preserve the clarity and integrity of the glass over time.

You should use Hario V60 paper filters that match the size of your dripper. If you have the 02 size (1-4 cups), use 02 filters; if you have the 03 size (1-6 cups), use 03 filters.

The primary difference is thermal retention and aesthetics. Glass offers a beautiful, transparent look and holds heat better than plastic, though it requires pre-heating with hot water to ensure your brew temperature remains stable.

Yes, both the 02 and 03 sizes are capable of brewing a single cup. However, the 02 size is generally more efficient for single-cup brewing, as the cone geometry is better suited to smaller volumes of water and grounds.
