To make a matcha latte, sift 2 g of matcha into a wide bowl, add 60 ml of water at 70–80°C and whisk quickly in a W or M motion until a fine foam forms. Pour it into 180 ml of steamed or cold milk. Keep the water below about 80°C — hotter water scalds the matcha and makes it bitter.

Match the paper to the brewer’s shape and size. Hario V60, V60 NEO, Switch and Mugen drippers take V60 cone papers in the matching size. The Pegasus takes its own Pegasus papers. AeroPress brewers use round AeroPress micro-filters (XL papers for the AeroPress XL). Syphons use cloth or syphon papers, and ESPRO presses use ESPRO papers sized to the press.

The Sage Dual Boiler heats quickly and can pull shots while steaming milk, because it has a separate boiler for each. Two-time UK Latte Art Championship finalist Ben Lewis rates its steam wand among the best he’s used at home, and its programmable temperature and shot volume make results consistent.

Brewed By Hand supports UK coffee competitions, festivals and grassroots events by lending and donating equipment — Comandante grinders, Hario brewers and servers, Felicita scales and Loveramics cups — and through sponsorship. Competitors can train on the same kit they’ll use on stage.

The Hario x Project Waterfall V60 range — a Size 02 plastic dripper and 100-pack filter papers — lets cafés and their customers support clean water, sanitation and hygiene projects in coffee-growing communities simply by buying kit they’d use anyway. Project Waterfall has worked in coffee-producing countries since 2011.

Loveramics Egg is a porcelain cup collection with thick walls and a rounded base shaped for pouring latte art. It comes in the four standard café sizes — 80 ml espresso, 150 ml flat white, 200 ml cappuccino and 300 ml latte — and Loveramics makes the official cups of the World Latte Art Championship and the World Barista Championship.

On an espresso bar, use a small, fast, water-resistant scale that fits on the drip tray — the Felicita Arc weighs up to 2 kg in 0.1 g steps, with auto-tare and auto-timer. For pour-over bars and retail, the Hario Polaris shows your brew ratio live on the display.

The V60 is Hario’s benchmark cone for bright, clean filter coffee. The V60 NEO is a lighter Tritan version, the Switch adds a valve for steep-then-release brewing, the Mugen is built for a single pour, the W60 is a hybrid developed with Pete Licata, and the two-hole Pegasus is the most forgiving for beginners.
