justice!
We’ve put together a little booklet with a few basic recipes for a range of
popular and affordable home brewing devices.
Enjoy the
process!
V60 Pour-Over
V60 Pour-Over

Serve and enjoy.
About the Brewer
- Initially designed in the 1950s, the v60 (“V’ for the shape ane ’60’ for the angles) was re-realised by Japanese glassware specialists ‘Hario’ in 2004.
- Whilst its aesthetics have won it plaudits in design circles, the v60 is loved by coffee pros all over the world too. Like all brewing methods, it can be as simple or as complicated as one would like. Tweaking the coffee grind size and changing pouring techniques can result in myriad nuanced results, all while letting gravity most of the work here.
- Use this method to brew a long, delicately flavourful beverage which is best served black.
- This guide will produce approximately 100ml of coffee – use the same ratio as a guide to adjust for desired quantities.

About the Brewer
The heavy-hitter of filter brews. French Press lets coffee soak in water for intended periods, and uses a relatively low-integrity filtering method. The end result is usually a full, significantly textured version of filter coffee. The device is easy to use and flexible with regards to the quantity of coffee brewed. It’s an easy method for preparing up to a litre of coffee in one go. As long as you don’t mind a little silt in your cup.
This guide will produce approximately 400ml of coffee – use the same ratio as a guide to adjust for desired quantities.

- Wait 60-90 seconds before plunging, slowly, until you hear a hiss of air escaping.
- Serve and enjoy.
About the Inventor
Alan Adler, inventor and retired Stanford engineer, created the
straightforward AeroPress coffee maker in 2005. Early in 2004, Adler began
developing the brewer in his garage at home, having grown impatient with how
long his coffee took to brew through standard filter methods.
Adler was a prolific inventor, holding over 40 patents for his inventions in
aerodynamics, optics, and other areas. One of Adler’s most famous inventions
is the Aerobie Pro flying ring, which was designed to fly further and more
accurately than traditional Frisbees. The Aerobie ring held the Guinness World
Record for the farthest throw of an object without any additional aids until
it was broken in 2003.
This guide will produce approximately 200ml of coffee – use the same ratio as a guide to adjust for desired quantities.

- Insert basket into bottom chamber, then screw on spouted top chamber.

About the Brewer
Initially designed in the 1950s, the v60 (“V’ for the shape ane ’60’ for the
angles) was re-realised by Japanese glassware specialists ‘Hario’ in 2004.
Created by Italian engineer, Alfonso Bialetti, and named after a coffee
trading port in Yemen, this 1933 invention is still a pillar of Italian
culture. The espresso-like beverage is produced when the steam from the
boiling water in the bottom chamber creates enough pressure to push up through
the ground coffee, and then out through the top spout.
Using this method a short, strong, full-bodied beverage cab be brewed to which
hot milk or hot water can be added if desired.
This guide will produce approx two ‘espresso – using a 3-cup model. Follow principles if using ‘ another size pot

About the Brewer
The AeroPress, created by inventor Alan Adler, is a manual coffee maker
produced by AeroPress, Inc. It features a cylindrical chamber and a plunger
with an airtight silicone seal, similar to a syringe. Ground coffee beans and
water are steeped inside the chamber and then pushed through a filter by
pressing the plunger. This method produces highly concentrated coffee that the
manufacturer describes as “espresso style,” but it can also be used to make
filter-strength coffee.’
This guide will produce approximately 100ml of coffee – use the same ratio as a guide to adjust for desired quantities.
