Step 1: Gather Your Materials

Before starting the brewing process, it is important to gather all the necessary materials. You will need Hario V60, a filter, coffee beans, a grinder, a kettle, a timer, and ice cubes.

Step 2: Grind Your Coffee Beans

The quality of your coffee depends largely on the grind size. For Hario V60, you need to grind your coffee beans medium-coarse. This will ensure that your coffee doesn't taste too bitter or too weak. Once you have ground your coffee beans, put them in the filter and place it over the Hario V60.

Step 3: Heat Up Your Kettle

Fill your kettle with water and heat it up. You don't need to boil it. The ideal temperature for brewing cold coffee with Hario V60 is between 195°F to 205°F.

Step 4: Bloom Your Coffee

Pour a small amount of hot water over the coffee grounds to wet them completely. This process is called blooming. Let it sit for 30 seconds. This will ensure that your coffee tastes fresh and flavorful.

Step 5: Brew Your Coffee

Start pouring hot water over the coffee grounds in a circular motion. Pour slowly and steadily. Keep pouring until you reach the desired amount of coffee. This should take around 3 to 4 minutes. Once you are done, remove the filter and discard the coffee grounds.

Step 6: Add Ice Cubes

Now it's time to add ice cubes to your cold coffee. Fill your glass with ice cubes and pour the freshly brewed coffee over it. You can add milk or sugar according to your taste.

Conclusion
