HARIO MUGEN One Pour Dripper
HARIO MUGEN One Pour Dripper
The HARIO MUGEN One Pour Dripper has a smaller hole than the regular V60, creating more flow restriction and an overall slower drawdown. The concept was by eliminating the initial bloom and steep simply by slowing the water flow though the cone. Why do you ask? Maybe it’s because people are in a hurry, or that it’s more fun to do a one pour coffee brew?
No steeping is required. You only pour hot water once. So it’s easy for beginners to follow a recipe and produce a delicious cup of coffee.
The Diamond pattern inside the dripper helps to relieve surface tension and direct brewed coffee through the filter.
It is better to brew with a slightly courser grind than you would with a normal V60 dripper, since the water flow is slower. The grind is more in line with what you’d use for Chemex or Kalita brewers.
Removable base for cleaning, the cone can also be placed into a pour-over stand. The
This dripper is compatible with 02 size V60 filters. So there is no need to find a new type of paper filter.
The MUGEN is available in a acrylonitrile-styrene resin or ceramic body with a polypropylene holder.
UPDATE: I’ve been using the Hario MUGEN One Pour Dripper for a couple weeks now, and it’s become my go-to brewer. I’m a first thing in the morning coffee drinker, so anything the shortens the time between brewing and the coffee in my stomach without sacrificing flavor is a welcome change.
