minimum dose size?

I use the Hario switch to brew my coffee and am trying to reduce my caffeine consumption. Hence I would like to brew smaller cups of coffee. I am currently using 10g of coffee with 160g of water. (1:16 Ratio) I am wondering if there is a minimum amount of coffee...

Regarding The copper version of Hario V60 02

Has anyone in this thread used one? I used to brew in a regular plastic 02, but I thought the copper one looked really cool so I saved some money to buy one, and stashed away my plastic brewer in a drawer. I've since used the copper brewer for like 1.5 years and in that period I've more often than not been disappointed with how my coffee tasted. It was often inconsistent in taste even though I measured everything.

Recently I read about how the coppers naturally great thermal conductivity might not be so good for making coffee(since it draws heat from the slurry) and started to take pre-heating the brewer more seriously. What I did was boil up around 500mg water and poured it onto the copper brewer when I had my grounds and water for the brewing ready. That made my coffee taste more consistent and quite good most of the time. A bit bland for my taste tho.

This week I found my old plastic Hario 02 and thought it would be fun to try brewing a cup with it since everyone seems to recommend it over any other 02 version. And damn it was effortlessly good, so I tried again and again brewing with it and always with a quite consistent and really good taste.

I've since then sadly renounced my love for the copper brewer and I've kept on using the plastic brewer. So my question is, has anyone else had this experience? Or have someone found a way to make coffee taste as good from the copper version as in the plastic one?
