In the final of this year's World Coffee Brewing Competition, four of the six contestants chose Hario V60. What is particularly noteworthy is that the champion, runner-up and third runner-up all use V60. Then why do the contestants in the World Series like to use V60? Let's analyze the reasons through their interviews.

This year's brewing champion Wang ce (Taiwan, above) uses fine coffee in the competition, and a fast-flowing filter cup is needed for proper contact time between coffee and water. The flow rate of V60 is the fastest among the filter cups he tested, so he chose Hario V60.

3

The runner-up Sam Corra (Australia, above) tested more than 50 filter cups for the competition and found that the V60 metal filter cup had the softest, sweetest and balanced taste.

4

Third runner-up Stathis Koremtas (Greece, above) said that V60 is the most suitable filter cup for regulating the flow of water, showing the unique flavor and aroma of coffee.

5

The only female finalist, Petra Strelecka (Czech Republic, above), said that the V60 plastic filter cup has the advantage of high temperature stability and can clearly show the taste of coffee.

Jang Moon Gyu, runner-up in the 2014 World Coffee roasting Competition, also said: "as the Greek representative Stathis pointed out, the V60 is the coffee appliance that can show the coffee personality most clearly. A recent trend is to use very fine ground coffee powder. V60 can improve the flavor of coffee, while the rapid flow rate can ensure proper contact time between coffee and water and avoid over-extraction. So I think Hario V60 is the most suitable filter cup for boutique coffee. "
