A home kettle designed for pour-over brewing, the HARIO Buono Pour-Over Kettle delivers controlled flow for better extraction. Steady, lightweight handling makes brewing more reliable and less fiddly for home baristas. Is this the practical choice for daily V60 sessions?

⚡ At a Glance
  • Brewing Quality: Controlled flow from a narrow gooseneck spout, suited to V60 extraction
  • Best for: Home baristas and V60 users seeking consistent manual pours
  • Not ideal for: Large households that need more than 3–4 cups per boil

Stainless-steel construction with a gooseneck spout for precise pouring. 1.2 litre capacity serves around three to four cups for small-group brewing.


Precise Pour Control – With a Narrow Gooseneck Spout

A tapered gooseneck spout narrows and slows the water stream, allowing finer control of flow rate and placement over the coffee grounds. The steady flow reduces channeling and helps even saturation when using a V60 dripper.

Accurate pouring makes it easier to hit consistent bloom and pour timings, improving extraction and cup clarity for pour-over techniques.

Rapid Heating and Durability – With Stainless-Steel Construction

Stainless-steel elements around the heating area transfer heat efficiently on IH, gas and electric cookers. Robust metal construction resists warping with regular stovetop use.

Fast boils and long-lasting performance suit frequent brewers who need reliable heat and a durable build for everyday use.

Comfortable Handling – With Lightweight Aluminium Body

An aluminium body keeps overall weight down while maintaining sufficient rigidity for safe pouring. A balanced handle design supports controlled single-handed pours.

Lightweight handling reduces wrist fatigue during long pours and makes precise pouring easier for routine V60 sessions.
