This is my ‘square one’ V60 01 method, using 13.8g coffee to 200g brew water. In that, it works with grinders that can make a higher proportion of fines at medium & finer settings, as well as ‘normal’ grinders. Also, if using an unknown grinder, starting with a visibly coarse grind & potentially working finer, with the same pour regime, until you are in the ball-park (once you are getting decent results, or maybe borderline over-extracting, you then still have the option to go finer & speed up the pour speed/use larger pulses).
I have used with brews from 200-300g brew water (scaling the brew ratio as necessary), pouring 10% of the brew water every 20 seconds.
Using the Rombouts #2 filter papers has pushed me in this direction, after the cessation of the medium crepe (in&out) white, Hario Japanese filters, but whatever the paper filter used in a V60 01, I’d still recommend this approach if you do not already have a well tested V60 routine & a preferred filter paper.
Grind size for this video is 6% passing through a 400Kruve (94.5 on Niche Zero, 6.67 on a Fellow Ode V1.1), or about 20% passing through a 600um ASTM/ISO sieve.
I’m not saying that this method is superior/inferior to any other dialled-in method (it’s a bit more ‘hands-on’ than most others), as mostly, I’ll use the Switch 02 with Drip Assist and 7×30g every 30s, or the Melitta Aromaboy. But, not everyone has those brewers and the 01 Drip Assist seems hard to get here.
