We put Orange in the v60?!

There is a trend going around social media at the moment where people are putting Orange into their pour over coffees.
We out it to the test with some surprising results.

I have tried it in the past with several techniques, but I think what works best is putting orange peel on the basket of the drip coffee maker. It's working just fine, extraction might be a tad lower but the taste is really good, brings back christmas vibes for me.

I've seen this trend a lot lately too, but I feel like I saw this a year or two ago and maybe it's making a comeback! I feel like if this is going to be a thing you do (for me its not!) it makes more sense to me to put the orange under the coffee bed somehow...? IDK 🤣

My thinking exactly. I would put a v60 dripper on a stand, and put a Hario decanter which itself has a v60 dripper underneath it. The orange would be placed on the v60 dripper below, and in theory it would "infuse" the brewed coffee before it drips to the decanter. Of course a simpler method would be to place the orange inside the decanter but then how long it stays there would be another variable that determine how "orange-y" the finished coffee would taste.

I think an orange hint in coffee sounds delicious but I think it may work adding orange zest to the coffee grounds or maybe infusing it in the water first.

the coffee shop in front of my uni has an “orange coffee” but they use natural juice and the coffee has ice, it’s kinda sacrilegious but quite good tho

So ... Huh. If people wanted orange flavored coffee, couldn't they put the orange in the cup below? Or just add a splash of orange juice? Neither of those sounds nice to me. I'm not a coffee roaster though, there are many things I don't know. The last coffee I had was from a gas station, but it was from one of those machines that grinds it right there... So maybe I'm just not cool enough for coffee trends.
