Easy V60 Recipe - V60 4:6 Method & Technique

Very smart. And a great intro. 40 60 ... I do love the Hario v60

I like my coffee with 50/50 milk cream (about 60g worth in a 300g mug). A coffee server is essential for me because I add the milk cream mix first to the mug and then pour in the coffee. Milk first is a different coffee than milk added second (don't take my word for it, try it).
The theory is that adding milk to hot coffee cooks some of the milk protein changing the flavour.

Thank you so much for this video. I think it's going to be a huge help to me.

I am very new to my pour over coffee. I just started 2 weeks ago. I find I am having so much trouble so far getting more sweetness and less bitterness. I feel like I really learned something from this video that is really going to help.

Off to try it tomorrow.

Thanks again

Note from the next day: That was by far the best pour over coffee I've made so far! Thanks again, I appreciate your help.

I tried this method yesterday with a low bloom for more sweetness and I was blown away, now I feel like I have actual control over how the v60 turns out haha

The sheer volume of jump cuts here is really impressive

This is a great video - your explanation of what the different variations of technique would do are really helpful.
I've been using a V60 (and something similar that a friend brought back from Japan) for years but never really honed my technique. After going to a really nice coffee shop where I was served V60 brewed coffee I have aspired to get better.

Is there a particular reason why larger initial pours translate to higher acidity? On the basis of brew theory, acidic flavors should have a tendency to be extracted earlier in the process, followed by sweet and lastly more bitter flavors. My initial thoughts would be that larger pours would result in sweeter brews so I would love to know more opinions.

That server looks nice. What is it and is the glass sturdy? I’ve seen many others, including the Hario brand and all the glass is so delicate it’s inevitable that they end up breaking with light use. How might this compare?

AWFUL overkill intro music

I’ve been using the James Hoffman method. But will be trying this one as I like how you don’t have a different method depending on how much coffee you’re making. However, the only question I have, is that you said you were using 20 g of coffee to 320 g of water. But then you said you were using 260 g first pours and 360 g second pours. That math don’t math!! 😂 Can you please let me know what happened there? Thanks for the vid

Stopped the video 53 seconds in. Absurd and unpleasant amount of cuts. Just talk and be you, let us have the unstressful experience with minor errors and all. 😉

Sorry to say, but I'm not watching the rest of the video as its jagged and actually stressful to both watch and listen to. Even thought there might be hidden gold in it. 😔

Coffee (and their videos) should not be unpleasant and stressful. 😊

Thank you for this video. May I ask what brand of kettle are you using? I LOVE the white and wood tones :)

I love this dude's videos and everything but each time he cuts to a movie scene... It's just maddening

Thanks! This method helped me dial in a good V60...was about to give up except I love the ritual of it all. Now the search for good coffee...any ideas? Also I used my new Niche Zero grinder but I also have a Baratza Encore which I would like to use for the V60...any idea what setting I should grind on?

Wtf is this editing. J cuts don’t mean you can throw pacing out the window smh

omg this video help me to learn more about this if can please can recomend other method what thing of origami sifon for example

Hi kyle..
Do u remember what was the procces of coffee that you used in this video?

Question: So I've been a French Press person for a longtime now. I really wanted to switch over to or at least learn how to do a proper pour over. I've been following your system now for a week or so and I guess it's going ok. My issue is the flavor of paper coming through. I'm rinsing the filter as you describe, but still it's there in the back ground. What do I need to do to remedy this?

I love your vibe, you make me feel safe here. Also, tried it on a coffee with lemon and lime tones that I hated, I kept bringing out those flavors but this recipe helped me bring out the honeydew tones as well and it made a world of difference. It's also so easy to follow and adjust, thank you! Other methods can seem overwhelming for a beginner like me

Too many ads.

Don’t talk to much

Love this, thank you!

choppy editing ugh

For this method what setting on the X Pro would you recommend to try out to start with?

your music is atrocious

What's the difference between complexity and clarity?

He keeps saying, “ for simplicity”. This is the most confusing and complex.

Love this method thank you for sharing

1 minute of jerky edits means I will never know this technique.

thanks for a great straightforward video, can’t wait to try this method

Hey Kyle, I'm playing around with this method right now to get a little more sweetness and medium strength. I'm testing with 20 to 22 g coffee, 40g bloom pour, 80g second pour, then two 90g pours to reach 300g water. Ending up with a decent cup of coffee but still a little bit of bitterness at the end and noticeably tart. I'm testing with both the Ode Gen 2 with Gen 2 Burrs as well as an Ode Gen 2 with SSP MP Burrs. The grind settings I've used are around 3.4 and 4.1 on each grinder. Also using with a basic Bodum gooseneck kettle and a Cuisinart gooseneck kettle (the Bodum seems a little bit more controllable). What do you think I'm doing wrong and how can I improve my brew?

To echo everyone else, the editing is sooo distracting and choppy. Really doesn’t add anything the video at all😢 Shame because content is good 👍🏻 but really putting me off watching

My draw down is very fast

Kyle, which coffee are you using for the video? Is it French/Italian? I’m guessing lighter as the color is light brownish?! Please let me know. Thanks!

I have fine grind coffee at home. I tried this morning wjust randomly use thev60. And it was very bitter. :(

Hi! 25 clicks in my JX is wayyy too fine, like between espresso and moka pot fine. Did you mean 25 numbers?

nice video, but you have not told how much time to wait between pours and the grind size also. you've showed this ruller with ground coffee which nobody understand except professionals, so info abou microns would be helpful.. thank you!

When I do that first swirl for the bloom I can only get mine to look like yours in the video if I go much finer. When I swirl mine looks like a thick sludge because I've gone coarser. Meanwhile I'm getting a 4 minute drawdown, so that tells me I should go even coarser???

About to try this 😅

Wow you can't even finish a sentence without having an edit seam! What's the deal? I find it increasingly annoying as I watch.
I see your pinned comment about J cuts. J has the sound cut before the video. Done with tiny, like one or two frame lengths, it also stands for "jarring". The J and L cuts are meant for several second long spans, in contexts where the audio makes sense as an introduction to a scene while the previous scene's video is playing out.
What is effective: Make a cheap teleprompter using a tablet. Then you can deliver your script without
having to
cut every few
words.

How can this method be applied for a cold v60?

Hey Kyle, when you say 24-26 clicks on the JX, can you be more clear? I have the JX and have the 30 click per rotation version. Do you mean 24-26 numbers from zero? Thanks!

Wouldn’t 24 clicks on the JX be incredibly fine? Jx reference guide suggests Turkish coffee for a grind that’s less than one full rotation.. little late but thoughts?

I may have missed it or someone else commented, but no blooming stage in the beginning? Just have at it?

You listed everything except the grinders….what grinders???
