How Long Have You Worked in The Coffee Industry?
17 years. I began my first barista job in January 2003.
What Was Your First V60 Encounter?
The first V60 I had was in around 2007-2008, when single cup brewing started becoming more popular in the US.
Why Do You Love the V60?
I love the clarity of flavour and the tendency toward vibrant tasting notes. The V60 filter makes for easy usage, and Hario has been very supportive in the Specialty coffee industry.
