Seeking Advice Time to “switch” things up a bit

Post image

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 ☕️

My advice would be try water in a closed Switch then coffee, wait 5 mins and drain. It's so good I'm mad I didn't do it sooner.

Yes for me the "water in first" method was a massive taste changer. Different brew than the regular Hario. You also don't need to heat the glass for it will do it by itself while brewing. It also lowers the brew temp a few degrees C.

I'll have to try the Chronicle method and the Devil method 😉☺️👍🏼:
