The Timemore Vector isn’t just another variation on the V60. It’s a dripper developed in collaboration with Matt Winton, winner of the 2021 World Brewers Cup, and is based on the simple idea that, rather than slowing down the flow, it aims to keep the water flowing as steadily as possible. Thanks to its well-thought-out internal geometry, the flow remains consistent from the first pour to the last drop, resulting in an extraction that is predictable, clean, and surprisingly forgiving even during everyday home use.
Inside the Vector lie several clever solutions. A dense network of contact points helps distribute water evenly across the entire layer of coffee and reduces channeling. At the same time, the three-zone design gradually accelerates the outflow, ensuring that extraction doesn’t stall even in the final phase of brewing—a feature that’s especially beneficial for light roasts. Six ventilation holes equalize the pressure between the filter and the surrounding area; the filter paper fits perfectly against the walls, and the flow of water remains stable from start to finish.
The Vector combines a 304 stainless steel core with a thermally insulated shell made of food-grade ABS. The metal heats up quickly and maintains a stable temperature throughout the brewing process, while the outer part remains comfortable to the touch. The dripper uses standard size 01 paper filters, but thanks to its geometry, it can handle brews ranging from approximately 10 to 18 grams without slowing down the flow. If you’re looking for a modern dripper that combines thoughtful design with consistent results in the cup, the Vector is definitely worth considering.
