The mesh bit could be good for camping. Hopefully they bring out one for the v60. I'll keep my plastic v60 which has great heat retention Thanks for a great video
What a fantastic review. You show us everything we need to know -- all the angles of the brewer, how it can be used, and what it's like to use it. Thank you!
I was about to purchase one, but will skip it for now after seeing your review. I have a V60, Kalita, Origami, Chemex already and W60 does not seem to bring anything unique to that set 😉
@@Jadamson321 I try to use them all, but Kalita and V60 are my 2 most common choices. Chemex comes out probably only 2-3 times during a month, when I need a bigger brew.
You didn't mention which coffee you used, I assume its medium roast I am generally not a fan of dark roast as for me I am unable to extract much flavor from it. But I think the W60 might extract a lot more flavor from a dark roast. And the variations might actually taste drastically different and possibly better.
Since the pandemic, globally in the coffee industry there has been about 1 dripper a month released and do you know what? They all make good coffee. That is once your familiar with it of course. The dripper probably makes only make up about 5% of how good a cup tastes. The other 95% = the water you use and the coffee quality. How have I come to this... from 20 years of roasting, brewing and designing my own dripper that will also make great coffee but is equally about highlighting the experience.
I'm kinda wary of using a plastic mesh filter. Seems like a perfect opportunity to introduce micro-plastics into your coffee. I have no data to back this up, but freshly boiled water and plastic don't seem like a good mix. What is the plastic made of?
I came here to say the same thing. There is undoubtedly microplastics as a minimum. Depending on the material there's also possibly phthalates and other undesirable components. A real shame! Why use a plastic mesh when metal is a thing? Even if not for health but for recycling?
I have a small Hario, and I have had the problem of breaking the filter and getting grounds in my cup. It takes too long to avoid breaking, so I have to put a piece of paper towel in the filter and then it never breaks.
I had a question about brewing and water. When it says “Use 500 ml” does it mean the coffee will be 500ml? Because I see that you use a scale when pouring. So I wonder, if you use 500ml to pout, but the end coffee will be around 400ml because the coffee does absorb water. I always based my measurements of ML pour and I don’t use the scale when pouring. I only use scale to measure coffee grams when grinding. Thanks!
The 500ml is your starting weight for water, some of it will be lost in the brew as you noticed for sure. Generally you have a set ratio of the coffee to water going in, where 500ml water to 30g of coffee makes a 1:16(ish) brew ratio but your end product will be around 400-450mls of brewed coffee. Hope that helps!
@@joshuavittachi1592 I see! I’ve been doing it different. I’ve based it on the ratio. For example 1:15. So if I have 20gram of coffee, I would make sure the “finish” is 300ml to drink. So perhaps my coffee has been a bit light.
I have seen some baristas measure the output mass of brewed coffee, but I think it's safe to say that most recipes online use input water as their measurement, instead of output mass. Also, using a scale when pouring lets you choose between different pouring techniques. If a technique calls for multiple pours, it's easier and more repeatable to just start and stop a pour. If you already have a scale, you may find your life a lot easier by brewer on a scale.

What grinding size is recommended?

Thanks Jeremy :)
Thanks for an excellent comparison video. 🙏🏻
Thanks for the support cheekster ☕️🙏

which one is your favourite?
Yup, I'll stick with the V60.
@@Jadamson321 I try to use them all, but Kalita and V60 are my 2 most common choices. Chemex comes out probably only 2-3 times during a month, when I need a bigger brew.
Frankly, I think the addition of the mesh would better facilitate the use of a Kalita style flat bottom filter.

hey, thanks for the comment we use specialty coffee roasted for filter :) so I guess we could call that "light" roast ;)
thank you, it's so informative!
finally another Video Thank Youuu and ohh noooo another Coffee toool welll let's watch the video :)
Fantastic video as always and a nice feature of Sunset C40 :D

We have to appreciate the fact that they don’t use filter, though. Big fan of any option helping us to cut waste, despite affecting quality a wee bit!
seems not worth it, hario should have designed a gadget adaptable to the classic v60.
I think they already did with SWITCH / V60 hybrid dripper.
good luck 😍🖐️
Thank you ☕💫
The only important difference is probably the shape.

@@tonypyare Yea you're correct, that will give you lighter coffee. 300ml should be what you are pouring not drinking
