Project Waterfall is working to end the water crisis in coffee growing communities.
696 million people around the world don’t have access to clean water. The majority live in isolated, rural areas – the same areas growing our coffee.
These bespoke HARIO V60 and V60 filter papers have been made in conjunction with Project Waterfall. Proceeds from these items will help support Project Waterfall’s work to bring clean water, sanitation and education to coffee growing communities across the world.
The award-winning HARIO V60 is the dripper of choice for coffee professionals and enthusiasts all over the world!
The HARIO V60 dripper is ideal for discovering and trying out delicious coffees. The V60 is extremely versatile and approachable, and is considered the gold standard for coffee drippers. Take a look below to find out what makes the V60 so special!
V60 Feature 1: Cone Shape
The V60's cone shape allows the coffee to become layered vertically in larger amounts than on the flat surface of a traditional trapezoid dripper. The V60 lets the hot water flow toward the centre, allowing for longer contact between the water and the coffee, ensuring a proper extraction of taste and aromatic constituents from your favourite coffee.
V60 Feature 2: Spiral Ribs
When the coffee is saturated with water, the high inner ribs do not hinder its expansion. A layer of air is created between the paper and the dripper, and the twisted ribs prevent the paper from sticking to the sides, letting the air through and allowing the grounds to expand adequately. This promotes a smooth extraction.
V60 Feature 3: One Single Large Hole
The V60 features one large hole at the bottom of the dripper, as opposed to several smaller ones in traditional trapezoid drippers. This makes the tip of the filter paper protrude through the hole, which in turn allows the hot water, unrestricted by the dripper, to perform extraction closer to that of a cloth filter. By changing the speed of pouring, you can brew coffee with your preferred taste, stronger or lighter.
