V60

Their V60 was one of their least consistent brewers, relying more on pouring technique than their Kalita.

“My v60 pour over was one of the least consistent - at least for me.”

Their V60 is their least consistent brewer, the most sensitive to small changes.

“I found my v60 to be the least consistent - or rather the most susceptible to subtle (or Not so subtle!) changes.”

Finds the V60 the most inconsistent pour-over because it's so easy to over-tweak.

“I think a v60 can be the most inconsistent pour over you can find”

Moved away from the V60 as their daily brewer because it was fiddly and gave very variable results; their flat-bottom brewer and even their Chemex were more consistent.

“The V60 is a very fiddly brewer for 250ml of liquid and I got very variable results.”

They use an automatic brewer on lazy days but still love brewing with their V60.

“I still love using my V60 though but its nice to have for days i dont feel like it”

After mastering the V60 they now barely use it: capable but inconsistent and unforgiving compared with other drippers, not bad but not great.

“It’s not a bad brewer, it’s just not great, either, and has nothing in particular to recommend it.”

The V60 is too inconsistent for their weekday mornings, so they save it for weekends.

“My abilities make the V60 too inconsistencies for most week mornings.”

Gave up on the V60 at first, but their new plastic V60 01 has made amazing cups; still finds it finicky about pouring technique.

“I just bought the v60 01 plastic and I just made amazing cups.”

They keep going back to their V60, a good-value entry to filter coffee, though their Kalita Wave is easier to use consistently.

“I keep going back to the Hario V60, it's a pretty good entry to drip filter coffee (esp the price)”

Their long-time V60 always makes good to great brews.

“Love my v60. I’ve had it for the longest. Always good to great brews.”

Bought other drippers but always goes back to their V60.

“I bought the Kalita wave mino and the Hario Neo and I always go back to my V60.”

Uses their V60 nearly every day without special water and finds the AeroPress less interesting.

“Nope, use it nearly every day and I'm not even using any sort of third wave water etc.”

Gave their V60 away because the process didn't appeal to them; it may make better cups, but their Moccamaster is more consistent and convenient.

“The process does nothing for my soul so we gave our v60 away and just use our moccamaster.”

Nearly giving up on the V60: despite a drip assist, different recipes, grind sizes and techniques they can't get a consistently good cup, unlike with their AeroPress.

“I’ve experimented with different recipes, finer and coarser grind sizes, and various techniques, but I just can’t seem to get a consistently good cup.”

Didn't like the V60 mainly because of the effort of weighing and pouring in stages, and switched to a simpler brewer.

“I didn't like my V60, but mainly because I couldn't be bothered to weigh water and pour multiple times at various intervals etc.”

Loves their V60 and suggests the poster may simply prefer the AeroPress.

“nope i luv my v60 maybe you just prefer aeropress.”

Owns plastic and titanium V60s; the titanium one brews amazing cups, though they find the V60 the most boring to use.

“I got the titanium and enjoy it but I feel like it's the most boring to use IMO (it brews amazing cups)”
