Hario Mugen 02 V60
One pour dripper
🍃🌊☕ HARIO Mugen 02 One Pour Dripper — single-pour simplicity, V60-level clarity
The HARIO Mugen 02 is a clever Japanese pour-over dripper designed for one smooth, continuous pour—no complicated pouring patterns needed. Unlike a classic V60, the Mugen has no internal ribbing, so the paper filter sticks to the wall and coffee flows down star-shaped grooves for a slower, steadier drawdown.
It’s lightweight, durable, and perfect for brewing one cup or multiple servings—at home, at work, or on the road.
What makes the Mugen different
- Single-pour design: easy workflow, surprisingly consistent results
- Star-shaped grooves: controlled flow without ribbing
- Removable holder: place just the cone on a stand/server if you like
- Cup-friendly adapter included: fits mugs with a 5–10 cm opening
- Dishwasher safe and easy to rinse clean
- Compatible with V60-02 filters
- !* Compatible with Hario Switch *!
How it tastes
Expect a cup that leans clean and sweet, with:
- good clarity (great for fruity and floral coffees)
- smooth texture
- stable extraction thanks to the controlled flow design
Coffee Nose tip 👃: The Mugen is a fantastic “daily driver” for people who want pour-over flavor without needing to master the kettle choreography.
