With the stainless ball seated, water and coffee steep together; pressing the PCT-resin switch lifts the ball and drains the brew.

Is the SSD-360-B dishwasher-safe?
Hario USA marks its heat-resistant glass as dishwasher-safe and notes that hand-painted products are an exception. The page does not specify a separate dishwasher cycle for the SSD-360-B’s complete silicone, PCT-resin, and stainless-steel assembly, so consult the product manual for component-level care.
Can the assembled SSD-360-B be used in a microwave?
Hario describes the heatproof glass as microwave-safe but adds that products with metal parts are for hot-water use. Because the SSD-360-B includes a stainless-steel ball, the assembled dripper should not be placed in a microwave; use it for hot-water brewing instead.
How is the 03 version identified in Hario’s product information?
Hario identifies the 03 version as article number SSD-360-B with a 360 mL capacity; the corresponding 02 version is SSD-200-B at 200 mL. This distinction helps confirm that the larger 03 model, rather than the smaller sibling, is the product being selected.
What is the packaged weight of the SSD-360-B?
Hario lists the SSD-360-B at approximately 600 grams including its individual box. That is packaged weight, not just the weight of the glass dripper and its valve assembly, so it is the more useful figure for storage or carrying decisions.
Does the glass bowl retain coffee odors or colors?
Hario says its heat-resistant glass prevents the transfer of odor and color and helps preserve coffee or tea flavor. This material statement applies to the SSD-360-B’s glass bowl; the separate silicone, PCT-resin, and stainless-steel parts still need to be cared for according to Hario’s instructions.
