For as long as I’ve been into coffee, I’ve been chasing the perfect technique for pour over coffee. Over time, I’ve started to dislike and call most coffee I brew at home “bad coffee.”

Over 15 years ago, I started brewing with the V60, maybe one of the most visual iconic brewing methods for coffee. This also happens to be one of the most temperamental brewing devices. It can extract the most wonderful and clean cup of coffee but if not dialed in precisely, the brew can swing wildly to over or under extracted.
