Hario - V60 Drip-Assist:
Drip-Assist is an attachment for Hario V60-02 drippers. This helpful tool is designed to simplify the coffee brewing process.
Created by Hario in collaboration with and Pete Licata, 2013 world barista champion. The form of the attachment resembles showerheads used in filter coffee machines. Its function is to evenly distribute the water to the surface of the ground coffee, thanks to which the brewing process can be controlled more thoroughly and thus more consistent.
The Drip-Assist is made of high-quality polymer that is safe for contact with food. It has holes of two sizes - those with a larger diameter in the central part and smaller ones on the outside. Larger holes allow for quick water flow, recommended especially for pre-infusion, while external holes make water flow slowly. Water flows into the central section when the outer ring is full, which protects user against spillage spillage.
Thanks to Drip-Assist, you do not need a gooseneck kettle, because it is the cap that ensures the precision of pouring. It is a great solution also for beginner coffee lovers who do not have a special kettle in their equipment.
The award-winning HARIO V60 Dripper is the brewer of choice for coffee professionals and enthusiasts all over the world!
The CoffeeNose👃: Drip assist can be used on any V60 02 dripper (creamic, glass, etc) and also fits on top of many other brewing devices! You can also use the V60 without drip assist. Use drip assist in the morning rush and make a pour over without assist in the afternoon.
The V60 is loved by baristas and coffee enthusiasts around the world, and has been tried and tested time and time again: The V60 was used to win 6 out of 10 World Brewers Cup Championships, and it is the only dripper to have multiple wins to its name!
V60 Feature 1: Cone Shape
The V60's distinctive cone shape allows the layers of coffee grounds to become thicker than on the flat surface of a traditional trapezoid-shaped dripper. The cone-shape lets hot water flow toward the centre, allowing it to stay in contact with the coffee grounds longer and ensuring a proper extraction of taste and aromatic constituents from the coffee grounds.
V60 Feature 2: Spiral Ribs
When the coffee is saturated, the high ribs do not hinder its expansion, and a layer of air is created between the paper and the dripper wall. The twisted ribs prevent the paper and the dripper from sticking to each other, letting the air flow through and allowing the coffee to expand adequately. This promotes a smooth extraction.
V60 Feature 3: One Single Hole
The V60 features one large hole at the bottom, as opposed to several smaller ones seen in for example traditional trapezoid-shaped drippers. This allows the tip of the filter paper to protrude through the hole, which in turn allows the hot water to perform extraction closer to that of a cloth filter, as it is unrestricted by the dripper. Changing the pour speed allows you to brew coffee with your preferred taste, stronger or lighter.
The V60 was designed for accessibility, versatility, and most importantly, making good coffee. And that it does!

Originally released in 2005, the HARIO V60 is loved around the world as a great tool that can help you create variations of flavour when brewing coffee. Its ease of use makes it a great starting point for people interested in specialty coffee, while its versatility makes it so that you can fine-tune your brew to your precise preferences, extracting all the delicious tastes and aromas from your coffee beans.
The shape of the filter and inner ribbing directly affects the taste of the coffee, and is therefore extremely important. But perfecting the production of these shapes in glass presented quite a lot of hurdles and required innovation on our part. Luckily, HARIO started out as a company specializing in heatproof glass, so we put that century of expertise to work, and after a lot of time perfecting the production process, the heatproof glass V60 was finally released in 2009. You can check out some other glass drippers here as well.
