Hario V60 Ceramic Slim

Ceramic burr manual. Beginner-friendly classic. Half the cost of premium options.
Cheapest viable entry — buy this only if you're testing whether you'll stick with manual brewing.
The Hario V60 Ceramic Slim is the grinder to buy if you are not yet sure manual brewing is a habit you will keep. The ceramic burr is genuinely durable — five-plus years of weekend use is realistic — and the slim glass body is light enough to take camping or on a trip. Particle distribution is acceptable for V60 and French press but visibly wider than the Timemore, with more fines that can muddy a pour-over. Adjustment is a stepless wheel under the burr, which is fiddly to set repeatably. At this price the entry cost is so low that the worst case is a budget learning experience.
Pros
- Lowest viable entry price for burr grinding
- Ceramic burr lasts five years or more in casual use
- Slim, light enough for travel
- Replaceable parts available cheaply
Cons
- Stepless adjustment is hard to return to a known setting
- More fines in the grind than the Timemore
