Hario Buono Kettle, 1.2 L Silver

If you want to get good results from pour-over brewing, you need to control the flow of water. You will need this V60 Hario Buono stainless steel kettle or a similar "gooseneck" type design. I looked for any other type of kettle that could do the same thing, and the Hario Buono is it. I use this daily at home on my gas range.

If you want to brew in a Hario V-60 type dripper, or even in a Chemex, you should consider this. For good results you need to pre-wet the grinds for 30 seconds with a minimal amount of water, then begin a slow, even pour from the center outwards. It's best not to pour directly on the filter, and often I must pour in stops-and-starts to draw out the infusion time to around 4 minutes total

For brewing with drippers like the V60s, Bonmacs, Kalitas, etc. the Buono and some of the technique above will improve results. When brewing with immersion brewers like a Clever Coffee Dripper or French press a kettle like this isn't so critical to have. 

We stock the largest size Hario offers, the VKB 120, in stainless steel. 1200 ml  (40.5 oz) is stated capacity to the top, but 800-900 ml  (27 to 30 oz)  is a better amount for use. If overfilled and left to boil water tends to come out the spout. I know from experience!
