FrontStreet Coffee Recommendation

The V60 is the natural home for the Mozart. Hario, the Tokyo glassware maker founded in 1921, redesigned the V60's prototype in 2004 and named it after its distinctive 60° cone angle and V-shape. The cone forces water to flow toward the center before dripping through, extending contact time between water and grounds, while the single large outlet leaves the flow rate entirely in the brewer's hands—so aroma and flavor can be extracted to the fullest.

Since the third wave of coffee, as roasting moved lighter and palates shifted from heavy body toward delicate acidity and florals, the V60's fast extraction has been the best way to bring out floral, fruity, tea-like character. That is exactly why raisin-forward coffees like FrontStreet's Musician Series Mozart shine in a V60: its layered, fruit-rich sweetness is presented with far more dimension than in a slower brewer.

If you enjoy bright, clean, fruit-forward pour-overs, brew the Mozart light-to-medium, grind to a fine-granulated-sugar size, and let the V60's quick, layered extraction do the rest.
