V60 "Mugen" Plastic Coffee Dripper, Size 02, Clear Black

I'm really enjoying having this option for my pour over coffee. I've been using the standard Hario V60 for many years now, and it's great for making my normal 20 oz daily cups. However, sometimes if I'm having coffee later in the day...or if I only have time enough for one cup...then this new Hario option is awesome, and the stronger brew it makes tastes great. Following the instructions, you will make an 8 oz cup that is stronger than the standard 16:1 water-to-coffee ratio. By my calculations, I'm ending up with around 9:1 water-to-coffee ratio. I know I could adjust to get a different result, but I kinda like the stronger result...especially if I'm only going to have 1 cup. I got the plastic version, and it snaps apart for cleaning.

Nothing more simple than a Mugen. It works. I don't worry that it will break, and if it did I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another or a similar size 02 V60 in plastic. They are great.

Classic dripper for anyone getting into pour overs. This is a no-bypass version of the original V60. Helps you get bolder cups of coffee, good for light roasts!

This is one of the easiest ways to enjoy quality pour over due to its one pour design. Results may still be customized by grind size and water temperture. The plastic version is very fragile. A fall of 3+ feet broke it in two after a month of use. The ceramic version is likely even more fragile.

I've been using this every morning for the past 15 months. I use it alongside my regular v60 to make 2 cups. I prefer this version over the old design - the coffee drips a little slower, I can taste the extra extraction. I also prefer the design of the base, it fits better over larger mugs. No cracks or other issues from long term use. Between all my coffee brewers -- V60, V60 Mugen, Hario Switch, Kalita Wave, Chemex, AeroPress, Phin -- This V60 Mugen is my favorite.

I wanted a coffee maker that's even simpler than everything else I already had (V60, aeropress, clever). The Mugen lives up. I can use any kettle. Pour carefully in circles, give it a quick swirl, and walk away; no preheat needed with medium roast. To clean, toss the filter an just rinse the cone in the sink. With all other brewers, you have to time things, either infusion time or pours. In terms of recipe, I don't follow their recommendation and instead I do the same 1 cup recipe I always do: 15g of coffee to 250g of water, grind size slightly finer than V60. Tastes delicious and pretty close to my V60. The only downside is that it is best suited for single brews. 24g of coffee takes forever to brew and does taste muted from declining water temperature. I will continue to brew 30/500g with the regular v60 02.

As a Hario veteran I've had many different drippers. This is a good one for lightweight, portable use. The surfboard piece makes it fit on a variety of receptacles. The rest is straightforward like any other Hario dripper. Works well with size 2 filters.

It works well to brew coffee!

Recomendado, funciona bien y es fácil de usar

Según el video de Hario, en 15” se deben verter 300 ml de agua en 25 gr de café y ajustar el molido para que el tiempo total de goteo sean 90”. En la práctica, puedes ir ajustando el ratio café - agua y tiempo de vertido para obtener el café que a ti te guste; eso sí, tener en cuenta que el Gotero Mugen de Hario está diseñado para un único vertido en el cual el café quedará adherido a la pared del gotero; de lo contrario, si decides usarlo de la manera tradicional, el tiempo de extracción aumentará junto con la amargura (sobre - extracción) Por lo tanto, con el Hario V60 Mugen puedes obtener un excelente café en menos de 2 minutos y sin necesidad de “blooming”, una excelente opción, sin duda alguna.

Makes a nice cup of coffee

Ich benutze schon länger die standard V60 von Hario, nun habe ich mich entschieden mal diese "Mugen" Variante auszuprobieren. Bei gleichem Mahlgrad fließt das Wasser hier langsamer durch, was zu einem vollerem Geschmack führt. Das meine ich erstmal völlig neutral, da manche Leute einen feineren Geschmack bevorzugen, aber mir Gefällt das Resultat besser als bei der standard Variante. Qualität ist gut, die Halterung sitzt aber sehr straff. Ich finde aber, dass der Mugen durch diese Halterung flexibler einsetzbar ist als die standard V60. Egal ob Thermoflasche,-Becher oder eine direkt in eine Tasse, klappt alles wunderbar, vorher war es zum Teil etwas wackelig. Knapp 15 Euro finde ich ein bisschen zu viel für so ein simples Kunststoffteil, das muss aber jeder für sich selbst entscheiden. Letztendlich war es mir das Geld dann doch wert und ich habe es nicht bereut. Als nächstes kommt dann evtl. die Hario Switch.

Cool item. Works, easy to clean. Light etc
