@@benwatson3482 you can also try Scott's recipe in our app called Brewtime :)
Thanks

@@fractalentanglement8485 Hi! We just released an Android version! Check that out: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brewtime
I decided to ditch my Breville Precision brewer because I just was not happy with the results. I had just over a year adjusting every aspect of the brew to no avail. I decided I wanted to try a Chemex... tried many pour styles. Nope. I got a HarioV60 and again set off to try to find my perfect brew. After 11 months of watching more videos than I can count, and reading more blogs than anyone should ever read about coffee pour techniques, I found you. I was skeptical... I thought.. STIR? SWIRL? Boiling temperature? NO WAY. YES WAY!! Your technique taught me how to get the maximum flavor and sweetness from my coffee! THANK YOU! Scott!
For anyone about to watch this video, this is the best video on pour over I’ve watched and I watched many. Clear, concise and then a quick repeat of instructions at the end.
So this is the Scott Rao I've been hearing about around the coffee machine.
4 years later and I still use your method Scott ❤. Hario went and changed their filter this year - the ones that worked beautifully for years. Toward the end of pour the grinds pack down too tight which adds a minute or more and the coffee taste is bitter and grinds are dry. I needed to watch this video again to see how to adjust the grind. Ty Scott! ❤
After trying this method I realise how bad my v60 coffees were, my technique was terrible. Getting a 3 minute pour now and the flavour from my coffee is unbelievable, so rich and tasty with no bitterness. Thank you Scott.
Have watched a dozen videos on pour overs, and this guy is definitely the most thorough, and gives the most explicit explanation of every process. Excellent!
Jordan Schlansky.
But unlike Jordan Schlansky, he knows good coffee.
Omg I thought of him right away. Especially fitting cuz of Jordan's alleged snobbishness
@@sixthdutch That's true. Jordan has a pod coffee machine in his office.
@@AyAy008 And if you watch the video of them visiting a coffee roasters, he's obnoxious and says that only espresso prepared like average Italian espresso is good and disses third wave roasting.
seriously that's Jordan's lost bro
I know this video was uploaded over a year ago, but I am so glad I found it. As a Youth Challenged American, I could never get the pour over to give me the flavor I wanted from coffee, so I abandoned the practice some years back for a decent drip pot, until now. In clear language I could understand, you explained why some pour overs were bitter, sour or stringent. Clear, concise instruction and explanation from a coffee expert. You have my thanks.
Been using a v60 for a very long time...and to think for the last ten years I thought I was brewing the "perfect cup"...but nope. I love this method, and I am certain it'll be the last I ever use. This has transformed my coffee through the v60 in a way I couldn't have imagined. I mostly notice that the bitterness is gone, and I couldn't be happier.
Everyday, for the last year when I make a pour-over I have fond thoughts of you. YES YOU!! You were instrumental in teaching me how to make a great cup of coffee. This demo is hands down the best out there in YT land. Cannot thank you enough! THANK YOU!
I just followed the instructions, and the result was a very delicious coffee! Thank you very much!
This guy is great? Simple, well-organized, informative presentation. Thank you, Scott.
Just from the first time that I have used this method, it made the resulting cup way much better than any my previous brewing. Scott, thank you so much for sharing this video.
+1 for no hipster posing and more technical information! thank you so much!
Thanks! Let's steal coffee back from the hipsters :)
god damn hipsters!!!!
@@scottrao5268 "wonderful"
Scott, excellent presentation, best I've seen. Such a pleasure to see you work, and show your appreciation for coffee. Thank you.
Best tutorial I’ve seen on this topic. I really appreciated the follow up of the realtime brew, then the recap. 99% of the videos on these topics are incomplete, ambiguous, and leave out critical details.
Scott, thank you SO much for posting this! I've been reading your blog for some time now and I am eager to try this. I absolutely love the one or two step pours - all of these hipster brew techniques have absurd stages and nonsense. Your technique is simple and each step is actually meaningful from a technical standpoint. I can't thank you enough!!
Thanks for showing it twice. Once to talk in detail and once in real time. Smart presentation.
Thanks Scott! Ive been doing this method since you were on the Cat and Cloud podcast and my home brew has definitely improved a ton!
This has been the most effective pour-over tutorial I've read or watched. Highly recommend this video & method for anyone who will be brewing via the Hario V60.
It's nice to see someone that really cares about the process
This video is tagged "old" but the info is great and relevant. Slick looking video as well.
This was really helpful & it’s great to watch an informative video from someone obviously passionate about their subject ☕️
This was so interesting to watch! I tried his method and used his tips - I was very happy with the taste of my coffee. Really helpful video. Thank you very much for sharing.
Thanks for this. I echo most of the comments previous to this. I’m an engineer and appreciated the direct and technical approach to your tutorial. The real time brew section was extremely helpful and something I thought was missing from every other video. Looking forward to trying this soon !
The more V60s I make I understand to perfection the tips and tricks, thank you Scott and cheers form Mexico
Very well explained and justified the reason behind all steps while preparing pour over coffee. I am eager to follow the steps soon. This is the best video I watched so far. Thanks.
I've tried so many different methods. I have tweaked so many of the steps. I am fully excited to watch this video to see what I've been doing wrong and to learn something new and vital.
I wish I saw this video first a year ago, would of saved me a lot of wasted coffee trying to follow other v60 videos😭😭
Great job!!
By far the best pour over video I have watched! kudos
You sir, just helped make my personal best cup of coffee. Just before watching this video, I made a lousy cup with my new Hario system. And just after watching this video, I made an awesome cup. And I haven't even dialed it in yet, so it's gonna get better. Also, I would like to add that while I liked the hipster videos out there, it was great to have someone cut through the chase. You're like the Joe Friday of coffee making -- just the facts! Thanks!!
This is the best V60 technique video I've seen. Definitely the easiest to understand and implement. I just got a V60 and am still trying to get the hang of it. Going to give this a try. Thanks!
Dear Scott, very interesting and pleasant presentation. Thank you for sharing!
Very informative video, thanks a lot! This is the best I've found so far, with an emphasis of content and information over form.
You make your no-nonsense pour-over coffee brewing. No rituals and no myths. That's exactly the way I've been making mine coffee. I don't know if it's really necessary to stir the coffee before serving as a final touch. I believe Bunn coffee brewer recommends stirring.
This is one of the best explanations on the V60! There are a looooot of V60 techniques on RUclips and some make you a bit skeptical.
I'm glad you're pro stirring during the bloom stage. So many professional looking videos are against it, but me, as an amateur, find it produces the best results. So I was confused for the longest time. "Are these pros right or wrong?" I'm glad you cleared it up and your explanation for it makes a lot of sense.
Great job Scott, refreshing to watch an adult give directions.
Interesting technique and great tutorial. This method seems really easy and straightforward. I've never worried about uneven extractions because I've always poured slowly enough so that no water falls through without extracting some coffee. It does cause some bitterness but to be honest I enjoy every cup I make.
This method works great for the Bonavita Dripper as well. 25g of coffee to 425g water. One of the best cups of coffee I've ever brewed at home! Thanks Scott
Thanks so much for the clear and simple instructions, it really made my coffee taste much better!
Just got to try this technique, watched and tried the pulse method in my earlier v60 days, thr 4-6 method (to a certain extent, got it right), James Hoffman's V60 technique, and finally this one. Seems quite simple, but consistent. After complete draw down, I regularly get the even bed of coffee grounds. Never thought I would be fascinated by that! I think I'll use this technique more often.. although I still get great results with the other techniques.
Very helpful! Thanks for posting. Looking forward to seeing future videos.
Best and most consistent brewing method! ✌️
Very cool, this alongside James Hoffman's v60 video have really helped me to see how to do it right,
Just got my V60 in the mail! I'm excited to try out your technique ☺️
That was one delicious coffee I made following your tips! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing your technique, Scott. I'm definitely going to give it a whirl.
I got the cleanest cup with this method, and by far my favourite👍 Thank you
Hey Scott , great video. One note on plastic vs ceramic brewer. If both brewers are adequately pre-warmed then all the heat is ' sucked' into both. When the brewers are in use, some thermal energy will be transferred from the water to the brewer and some to the surroundings. The brewer that holds thermal energy better will take less from the coffee and release less into the surroundings keeping the coffee at a more stable temperature. Ceramic has a higher heat capacity and will keep it's temperature better.
This just up'd my coffee game! Thank you.
Hey Scott, I have to say this is the best Pour Over video that I have seen! It amazes me that everyone has their own way to do it. One thing I did notice is that you didn't mention the preferred temperature of the water, other than to say to use boiling water.
Thanks, Scott. Presumably the stainless version might also be good as stainless is a very poor conductor of heat. I appreciate your posting this.
So helpful. Thanks! Would love to see your 2-pour method, out of curiousity. But I understand these videos take time/money. Thank you again Scott!
Thanks so much, Scott! I've recently shifted from my Kalita Wave to a V60, but have been struggling to "dial it in". Your video (and the Brewtime app that features this method) nailed it for me. Tasting flavors I haven't been able to pull out previously. Thank you!
nice! I'm glad
Excellent video, best one I've seen on pour overs.
Excellent video. I read his advice for the Chemex and this looks similar to what I read. Applying this to my Chemex brew technique.
wow. so glad I watched this before making my second cup!! the first was like drinking foldgers. the one I made with this method, bloody brilliant. I can actually taste the notes, dark chocolate with hints of almond. I feel like the main difference was the amount of water used in the bloom, plus excavating. anyway...subscribed!
I got a plastic v60 two years ago and always thought it was crap because I didn‘t knew I had to buy v shaped filters, as I have never seen them in a shop over here. I always thought there is only one type of filters. Then I thought it was crap because everyone told me ceramic is the reall deal.
Then I saw your Video. Thank you! I ordered the filters and I will try your method.
Again thanks!
@ch282 or just buy the normal hario ones
ch282
Amazon or online shopping
Excellent explanation Scott, thanks!
2 years later: I watched James Hoffmann's V60 video about 4 times and I actually found your video more helpful. However, you are missing accent and cool hair.
The technique is pretty similar from what I can tell, Hoffman just goes into the finer details more. The whole "excavating" vs "starting with a well and twirling" presumably has the same result of wetting all the beans. The rotating pour and spoon followed by a twirl is also pretty much the same just more detailed from Hoffmans side (breaks the pour into two separate 30s blocks). The ratio is even roughly the same. Maybe Hoffman just needs the real time run through at the end of the video to simplify it.
yeah, also the quality of the video doesn't help, it's low even for 2017 standards, sound is HORRIBLE (not mentioning James Hoffman's unique style and cool video montage)
from my experience, you can get a pretty nice brew by following JH's video, and this one gives some theory and explanation of why we're doing this.
Yeah, James is soothing in the morning. I listen to him while I make my coffee.. There's room for everybody. :)
@@manielek Yes. I don't understand when channels have harsh clangy audio.. A good mic please. James' attention to detail in editing is a delight.
Perfect tutorial! Every statement is well argumented, explained and shown. I've never tried to stir the bloom, but the Co2 coming as a result of a ground getting wet makes total sense about why depending on your grind size, you may get bubbles after the bloom. My only question is, when using v60 filters, I've heard depending on where they were made, they let the water through at different times. Is that true? If so, are the Japanese ones better or the Dutch ones are okay if the grind size is adjusted?
I was so close to toss my V60 in the garbage can...lol.... following this guide, I'm brewing very good coffee, although, I think full immersion methods are better :-). Thank you for this guide Scott.
Clever all the way! (or Aeropress)
It's honestly just come done to your opinion. If you like coffee one way, good for you. If you like coffee another way, good for you as well. No one's going to stop what you like unless it's harmful to your health
Awesome video Scott!
Great video Scott, I've been a barista for about 11 months at Costa in the UK, I quit my job and I'm looking to find an independent coffee job where I can take my coffee skills to the next level. I just got your book The Professional Barista's Handbook for Christmas and it's fantastic, didn't want to put it down. Keep up the video work! I think you'd benefit from youtube greatly if you kept getting out videos similar to this but perhaps with a better microphone quality.
Very nice video!
Most of the things i did was already like you said, but my coffee bed was not wet send but mud... will try to adjust that! Might also explain why the extraction took quite long.
This is actually the best method out there.
Opinions vary yo!
This is a very valuable lesson. Thank you :)
Guys, a bit of a tip from me : combine Rao's pour over concept with Kasuya's. They work so well together. Tried it with light roast Indonesian beans and they work beautifully
A very well done video thank you. Love and peace. Tim
Very enlightening. I'll definitely apply it. Thx
Really great video with useful info Thanks a lot sir !
Thanks man this makes a great cup of coffee.
ordered my first V60 today , pretty excited. Gotta use a handgrinder first tho , since electic burgrinders are hella expensive
Good Video Scott!
Thank you Mr Rao!
Wonderful. Shall give this a go.
Thank you for sharing your V60 brewing technique Mr. Rao!
I would like to add subtitle for your video if you want (in English and Indonesian), but your channel said that this video is not open for public contribution.
So, I can't do it for now.
Excellent video, thanks!
This is very helpful. Other than going coarser on the grind, would this method also be applicable for the Chemex?
I'm thinking about getting the Breville Electric Coffee Grinder. Would you consider that in the "good" category you spoke of in this video for this Hario Pour Over method or, is it in the cheaper grinder category?
Thank you.
Bags of wet sand! Cool video I can’t believe this much thought goes into coffee but hey I’m going to put this knowledge to work!
Hi Scott! Great video -- just curious, what brand of scale are you using for this? And is there any particular scale you generally recommend for weighing water/coffee for home drip machines? Thanks!
I'm a little late, I started using the hario a couple months ago. The problem I have is in the first pour for the bloom my water is going down really fast, even in the end to do the light stir. And great vid Scott
Hey Scott, Q: I recently bought a glass V60 dripper size 03 and am having trouble finding brew specs for it online. Do you have any recommendations?
This method is legend !!
This is very informative!!! Do you do anything differently when brewing a dark roast?
Excellent video.
My Folgers taste improved with this technique - not kidding. The excavation is probably the most important.
Thank you for pronouncing your name. This has put to rest an endless debate about how it was pronounced.
hahahah. you can pronounce it however you'd like.
Scott Rao we credit Cat and Cloud for clearing this one up..."Rao of light"! Fitting.
Love Cat and Cloud... haven't tasted their coffee but I have been following Chris Bacca for a while now :)
Car Spidey yes, Chris and Jared are awesome. They will be offering a Geisha at cost in the coming weeks, might be a good time to try them out. ☕️👍🏼
thanks for the info. I'll stay tuned.
Hi Scott, thank you for the informative video. I was wondering how important it is to keep your water temp up? How much heat does your kettle lose during the brew, and does this matter? I have an electric kettle that allows for quick re-boiling...
Thank you kind sir, this is the best V60 instuctional vid, PERIOD....ya hear me, PERIOD....🎤⬇️
great video.....thanks for the lesson
Thank you so much for this video, one of the best out there!!!
lol'd at the "no hipster posing bs" hahaha, but great video, gave me a lot of insight on how to use the V60 for brewing!!
great tutorial. thanks!
Thank you sir.. I never using spoon during the "Blooming Process" now I've seen you video and it seems really reasonable amd convincing.. I'll try that method! :)
4:6 method punya Tetsu Kasuya juga asik mas 👍
Doc, try to adapt rao's and Kasuya's concept, they work well together and are adaptable to a lot of coffee beans. Tried it with Indonesian and Colombian beans with different roast degree and it was beautiful. Cheers!
Serving/Ratio: 22g for 360g / 1:16.4
Brew time: 3 mins
1. Rinse filter & pre-heat V60
2. Pour in grounds, flatten, pre-wet with 66g water (~3x weight of grounds).
3. Gently excavate to wet all the grounds within 10s
4. At 45s, start main pour until 360g.
5. Gently stir to stop grounds from clinging to sides
6. At 1min 45s, swirl V60 to flatten coffee bed for even brew
7. Drawdown should be complete within 3 minutes.
So any issue with leaving the kettle out on the counter letting the water cool as the brew process takes place? Most other (pretty much all) other videos I've seen seem to point out that the water should be as hot as possible, at least for lighter roasts suggesting that the kettle should be either electric and placed back on the base or kept on the burner between pours. Just asking because this is the only video I've seen where a non-electric kettle was just left on the counter. Is the water not cooling significantly enough to make a difference?
Isn't it worth warming the spoon to keep the temperature from lowering? And prewarming the pouring vessel? I've heard elsewhere that a secret is keeping the water as hot under boiling for longer will draw a better extraction.
