I'm sure this will be most people's response to your post:

Relatively similar to the second option I guess. Interested to hear how you get on!

Oh, I'm well acquainted with the Hof. Just interested in maybe trying to remove some of the oils (or what seems like oils) you get with a cafetiere. The sensible answer is to spend a tenner on a bigger v60 and a pack of filters, but with such a glut of free time at the moment, the mind starts to try and solve problems that aren't really there.
I'll report back tomorrow, I know you're all waiting on tenterhooks.

This might be a stupid idea, but is there any merit in infusion brewing, then pouring through a filter? We usually make a cafetiere but I'm missing the cleaner taste of filter. Unfortunately we only have a small v60 and massive filters at the moment - not much use when brewing for two.
I'm going to experiment either way, but was thinking of trying:
1) making the press normally, then just pouring through a filter.
2) brew like tea, leaving grinds to settle, not using the press in the cafetiere and just pouring through a filter once brewed.
Any other ideas?
