The Chemex vs. V60 debate is all about these nuances. The Chemex is able to handle much larger brewing jobs. Chemex offers its pour-over pot in a variety of sizes which can be great for people looking to brew a lot of coffee at once. They are also a little more forgiving with the grounds of coffee that you use.
Ease of Use - 4/5. In many ways, the Hario Switch is the ultimate fail-proof dripper. If you use it in a fashion similar to the Clever Dripper, you are guaranteed a reliably great cup of coffee. It's as simple as steeping the coffee immersion style for the duration of the brew, then opening the valve to filter the liquid from the coffeePlastic is best because it insulates best. Plastic coffee gear doesn't melt. That's such a ridiculous statement. Engineers and product designers are smarter than this. The hario switch and clever dripper will perform almost identically as they are doing the same thing. Don't work about the plastic heat thing, it's high quality and built well. The Hario V60 has one large hole at the cone dripper's tip where all the brewed coffee flows through. The Kalita Wave has an entirely different design and functions with a flat bottom with three smaller holes. The flow rate is reduced in the Kalita due to the small holes compared to the Hario with one big hole.
The Hario V60 is an iconic pour over method available; you'll see it being used in cafes around the world. Like the Origami dripper, made in Japan, and by Hario ('Hario' translates to 'King of glass' in Japanese) means the glass or ceramic pour over coffee brewers are of the highest quality.It comes in a range of different materials, but I consider the ceramic to be the best V60 dripper.
