In this project, we will review the differences between each dripper by actually comparing them.
In the previous article, I compared "Hario V60" and "Kalita Wave", but in the second article I would like to compare "Hario V60" and "Origami".
Both types have one large hole in the bottom.
What kind of difference in taste will there be?

Differences in each structure
First, let's compare the product sizes.
This time, we will compare "Hario V60 02" and "Origami M", both of which can hold up to 4 cups.

[Hario V60 02]
product size Width 137 x Height 102mm Diameter 116mm
Origami M
Size: width 138 x height 87mm diameter 25mm
Although the Hario V60 is taller, you can see that the hole in the bottom of the Origami is larger.
What kind of impact does this difference have?
shape
Both Hario V60 and Origami are "conical".

In both cases, the conical shape allows the extracted coffee to flow smoothly without collecting at the bottom.
Number and size of holes
Both have ``one large hole.''

In both cases, changing the thickness of the hot water you pour will change the speed at which the extracted coffee falls into the server.
Hosoyu (hot water) drips more slowly, making it easier to get a strong flavor. On the other hand, thicker hot water tends to have a refreshing taste because it dissolves quickly.
With either dripper, you can control the flavor by adjusting the thickness of the hot water you pour.

Rib (groove)
The biggest difference is in the "ribs".

Hario V60 has a "spiral" rib structure.
The ribs (irregularities) inside the dripper extend high to the top, creating a space between the paper and the dripper, which allows air to escape without interfering with the expansion of the coffee grounds during steaming.
On the other hand, origami, as the name suggests, has vertical grooves that look like folded origami.
It is said that the 20 ribs create a space between the dripper and the paper to allow hot water to drain smoothly.
Both are the same in terms of creating a space, but the way they are created is completely different.
What effect does this difference have on the taste?

I actually extracted it
Now let's actually extract it.
Both coffee beans are of the same brand, the same grind size, the same water temperature, and are extracted under the same conditions as possible.
I used the brand "El Salvador SL28 Washed Medium Roast".

[Extraction ratio]
・Beans amount: 25g
・Extraction amount: 350ml
・Water temperature: 89 degrees
・Steaming: 45 seconds
Extracted impression
The Hario V60 has a taller dripper than the Origami, so I got the impression that it could pour more hot water than the Origami.
I couldn't really notice much of a difference depending on the hole size.

impression of taste
I compared the coffee I actually extracted.
I was able to enjoy a cleaner, lighter-bodied taste with the Hario V60, but the volume of flavor was a bit lacking.
Origami had a stronger body than V60, and I had the impression that it had more sweetness and flavor, but it did leave a bit of bitterness in the aftertaste.
I also compared the color of the extracted coffee, but the liquid color of Origami was darker.

Left: Hario V60, Right: Origami
I think the Hario V60 was able to produce a cleaner cup due to the larger amount of poured water.
Hario V60 is recommended for those who prefer clean and gentle coffee, and Origami is recommended for those who want to enjoy a strong flavor.
What did you think?
This time, we did not compare the most suitable extraction method for each device, but rather examined what differences would occur when brewing using the same method.
By using different drippers depending on the characteristics of the brand and your mood that day, you can experience a different way to enjoy coffee than ever before.
If you have any equipment you would like us to compare or anything you would like us to verify, please feel free to contact the editorial department.
We will continue to conduct various verifications related to coffee!
