I got myself a V60 (along with the honker kettle) in order to finally enjoy lighter roasts. I already have a timemore grinder and a mid range lelit espresso machine so I just wanted something to cleanse my palate and explore more varieties of coffees.

Currently I use the 15g coffee in, 5 pours ending with total of 250g over 3 minutes. I have modified the method to have more sweetness by pouring more water on second pour than rest. Pouring in a spiral motion going from center.

What are some other must know tips and core logic? What changes the flavor and what doesn’t?

    You pour some water in, then forget about it for half an hour, re boil the water and pour the rest feeling like an ass.

      I firmly subscribe to the school of grinding your beans at espresso setting, discovering your mistake 20 minutes later and then regrinding them only to discover you didn’t change the grind size.
