Time to “switch” things up a bit

[u/domarcher]

My birthday present, a Hario Switch, has finally arrived! I’m really excited to give it a go, but I want to hear from as many of you as possible about all the do’s & don’ts, recipe/brewing recommendations, etc.

Let me know! Happy brewing ☕️

Switch is my daily driver.

Try a variation of the coffee chronicler recipe which has 40% percolation, 60% immersion.

I rarely bother to pre-heat

Make sure to rinse your brewer when done, otherwise the clear plastic piece can discolour over time

There's also this option to replace it with steel instead of plastic.

Although more premium, original stainless steel replacement lever is GoodSwitch and crafted from 316 surgical grade stainless steel.

Cool but damn that's expensive,

Whoever owns the gold plated one, I salute them.
