I recently got a Hario Switch clone and a metal filter. So far I’m liking a recipe inspired by these YouTube shorts:
Recipe:
- Start with 20g of grinds, stir to loosen the grinds and make a divot in the center
- With the switch closed, add 150g of 90C (195F) water
- Give it a quick stir and wait 1 minute
- Add another 150g of hot water
- Open switch
What is your daily driver recipe for your Hario Switch?
I’ve been using James Hoffman’s technique for the Clever brewer for my Switch: https://youtu.be/RpOdennxP24 with one small change - I add some additional water during the drawdown to get a bit larger cup, I enjoy a cup with closer to 300 ml water in.
This thread reminds me that it might be time to experiment a little bit, thanks for posting!
30g coffee to 480g water, 96 C, 03 Switch
- 0:00 add 60g bloom w switch open
- 0:45 add 140g w switch open (total 200g)
- 1:30 close switch add 280g immersion (total 480g)
- 2:30 open switch Finish around 3:20
What grinder and settings are you using?
My grinder is a Jaffee J1 from AliExpress, and I’m currently using it on 30 25 clicks. Oddly I was able to using a finer grind and longer steep time on my French press. Something about the drip seems to extract more from the coffee.
Thanks, I popped you onto the grind settings chart for kicks. https://startrek.website/post/5939784
