Hoffmann’s 1 Cup V60 Technique

Recipe summary

60g of coffee for 1l of water That is 15g of coffee for 250ml Grind size a little finer than what you think especially for lighter roasts

Preheating is quite important. Plastic works better for heat retention However comment under suggested some advices for ceramic and glass which doesn’t involve too much water, like putting the V60 over the kettle while heating up, or even better put the V60 with the rinsed paper filter in the microwave for about 20s
