Also shouldn’t you pour in spirals rather than straight into the center (as their lab test depict)?
The most common technique for a Hario v60 in the past was the Rao. It's swirling the bed to make sure bed agitation is consistent but not washing fines down into the bed. The v60 is designed for the finished brew to pass through the sides of the filter and down.
A chemex however I'll send a solid steam right into the center of the bed and then stir gently to keep it agitated.
I have a Blue Bottle. What do you recommend for this one?
