The Hario V60 Ceramic 02 is the global reference standard for pour-over — the tool specialty coffee uses as a baseline. Spiral ribs run the full cone height for even drainage; the large single apex opening drains fast for bright, clear extraction. Ceramic holds heat significantly better than plastic versions, and its budget-friendly price makes getting started low-risk. The honest trade-off: fast drainage amplifies technique errors — an inconsistent pour shows directly in the cup, which takes 1–2 weeks of practice to master.
