Since 1921, the range of products that the company is making has developed. From first producing laboratory glassware, the company launched its first coffee-brewing device that caught the attention of households and the coffee industry, the coffee syphon, in 1964. At that point, Hario Co., Ltd., a separate glassware division, was established. Since then, many years had passed before the launch of the pourover method we are interested in today.

Hario is the King of Glass

Since the beginning, the company has established itself as the leader in the glass-manufacturing market. The name given to the division producing the 1st-grade hardness glass was HARIO, meaning, the King of Glass.

The company has taken pride in producing glassware of the highest quality. Their heatproof glass is made of silica sand, borax, boric acid, alumina; all refined natural minerals. An electric heating system is used at their factory, which means, there are no chimneys necessary. The King of Glass is thus also taking care of their environmental impact.

The Iconic V60 Brewer

Although Hario’s production has always been focused on glassware, its most famous product is actually made of porcelain. The brewer can be found all over speciality cafe bars in its signature white or red colours. The ceramic brewer of an elegant, conical shape is undoubtedly one of the most popular brewers in our industry. But how was it invented, and how is it produced now?

Research proved to provide scarce information, but we found that in the 1980s, the market was so dominated by immersion brewers, rather than pourovers, that the “Hario’s designers wondered whether a parabolic shape would help to achieve a cleaner-tasting cup by allowing water to pass through the grounds rather than steeping them,” the UK Hario website informed us. The designers were onto something. We know that now, but their idea was met with some obstacles and a few years of lay-back before the V60 came to life.

What the designers came with at first was “a conical dripper using wire rods to support a paper filter.” Unfortunately, this brewer failed to gain much popularity against the big instant-coffee wave. The idea was not forgotten, only put on ice until 2004.

A Design Only 14 Years Old

The design of the shape of the V60 is, as Hario put it, a shape of nature.
In other words, y = x². Which really means, that at the beginning of the V60’s design there was a parabola.
V60’s name comes from its letter V shape, which is under the angle of 60 degrees.

One Shape, Multiple Sizes and Colours

The original ceramic V60 is manufactured using Arita yaki, a Japanese porcelain brand. Arita yaki is porcelain made from fine clay, that results in unclouded, clear ceramic, giving it a sleek finish. This Arita yaki method of ceramic production is 400 years old and has been followed to this day. The V60 is still produced in the town of Arita, which is known for its ceramics.
