A donabe is an essential piece of cooking equipment in the Japanese kitchen. Made from thick earthenware, these traditional pots maintain a gentle, even heat. It’s the best way to make fluffy, evenly cooked rice. Hario’s ceramic products are known as Banko ware, a regional form of pottery from Mie Prefecture that are perfect for making rice dishes or other filling one-pot meals. Equipped with a glass lid with a silicone handle, you’ll be able to keep an eye on your ingredients without losing steam by opening the lid. Try it to make koge (scorched rice), in which the lower bits of rice become crunchy and nutty as they overcook, which is difficult to make in a typical electric rice cooker.

Made in Japan from shock-resistant borosilicate glass, this stackable three-piece bowl set from Hario helps with prep work and small tasks around the kitchen. Heat-safe and designed in three convenient sizes, each bowl is equipped with a handy pour spout to make pouring from bowl to bowl easy. They’re attractive enough to go from kitchen to table, and the set goes in the dishwasher when you’re finished.

Made with a double wall, Hario’s V60 Coffee Glass is the ideal mate for both iced and hot coffee, especially pour-overs. The transparent glass is perfect for pour-over coffee, allowing you to measure your water more precisely—never overfill your cup again—and see your coffee’s color while brewing to ensure the perfect strength. While most glasses are thin and fragile, this thick cup, complete with comfortable ribbed design, is made to last—it’ll protect your hands from heat or condensation (and your hands won’t warm your cold drink either). When you’re done, the glass goes straight into the dishwasher.

The most flavorful coffee relies on freshly ground beans—as soon as coffee beans are ground, exposure to air and water begins to dull the flavor—but most grinders are electric, clunky and expensive. We like Hario’s Skerton Pro Ceramic Coffee Mill, a compact, hand-crank burr grinder perfect for both travel and home use. It adjusts to any grind size and its crank rotates smoothly, unlike those of most hand grinders. The ceramic burrs in this grinder transfer less heat, so the tool stays cool while shaving the beans rather than cracking them like some grinders do. Plus, your beans will stay contained in the chamber without bouncing out, while the screw on lid allows you to bring your ground coffee on the go.

Hario’s V60 Coffee Dripper is one of our favorite ways to brew a great cup of coffee. We love the pour-over method, which allows you to control the nuance and flavor notes of your coffee, but most designs are made of fragile ceramic or glass. Hario’s alternative is made of light stainless steel. It’s durable—great to travel with (especially with its removable silicone rubber base)—and it conducts and retains heat well for a hot, flavorful cup every time. The overall design has been around since the ’80s, but now with ribs to keep filter paper from getting stuck on the sides and a larger hole for a faster flow and more clarity in the cup. The conical shape also allows for a deep layering of coffee grounds—pour quickly for a lighter, delicate cup or slowly for a heavier, fuller flavor. Plus, the V60 is large enough to make up to four cups of coffee. You’ll never need your bulky Mr. Coffee again. Available in Matte Black or Silver.

Hario’s Handy Tumbler is the perfect size for sipping anything from water and juice to coffee and tea. Designed with a slight curve, the shape of the cup helps accentuate the aromas of your drinks, especially coffee, which ensures you take in the full flavor. The sturdy heatproof glass and thin rim make it suitable for just about any beverage, even wine and beer. And once you’re done, pop it in the dishwasher.
