My guide for brewing filter coffee with a Hario v60 filter
Raw
Brew Guide v60.md

6g of beans per 100ml water (ex. 500ml water for 30g beans)

  1. Pour double the amount of water as you have beans (60g water in case of 30g beans)
  2. Wait ~30s (maybe longer if your beans are not super fresh) ... also called blooming
  3. Pour more water until you've reached 50% of the target amount of water (250g in case you have 30g/500ml beans/water)
  4. Wait until all water has drained from the filter
  5. Pour more water until you've reached ~75% of the target amount of water (400g in case you have 30g/500ml beans/water)
  6. Wait until all water has drained from the filter
  7. Pour more water until you've reached 100% of the target amount of water (500g in case you have 30g/500ml beans/water)
  8. Wait until all water has drained from the filter
  9. Enjoy!

You can vary the recipe quite a bit by changing the speed with which you pour the water. Slower pouring will usually lead to a stronger brew. Try playing with the pouring "speed".
