Hario V60 Buono Electric Power Kettle

The Hario V60 Buono Electric Power Kettle is a staple in the specialty coffee world, recognized for its iconic "beehive" ribbed design and precision gooseneck spout. Designed specifically for pour-over coffee brewing, this electric model provides the same level of control as the classic stovetop version but with the added convenience of an integrated heating element and automatic shut-off.

Hario, which translates to "King of Glass," was founded in Tokyo in 1921 as a laboratory glassware manufacturer. Over the decades, the company pivoted to household items, eventually becoming synonymous with manual coffee brewing excellence. While Hario is famous for its "Made in Japan" heatproof glass and certain premium stainless steel products, the production of their electric appliances, including the V60 Buono Electric Kettle, is primarily outsourced to manufacturing facilities in China to balance cost and global accessibility.

The brand remains under the ultimate ownership of Hario Co., Ltd., a private Japanese corporation that continues to lead the market in coffee and tea equipment. Despite the manufacturing shift for electronic components, the brand maintains its headquarters and design philosophy in Japan, ensuring the product meets the rigorous standards required by professional baristas and home enthusiasts alike.
