Hario Switch

Temperature
94°C (201°F)
Ratio
1:16.7 (15g : 250g)
Grind
1Zpresso J: ~28-32 clicks (medium-fine — start ~30 clicks)
Grind Adjustment

if sour: grind finer by 2-4 clicks (≈26-28), or raise temp 1-2°C and/or extend contact 15-30s; if bitter: grind coarser by 2-4 clicks (≈34-36), or lower temp 1-2°C and/or shorten contact time

Brewing Steps
  1. 1. Prepare: rinse paper in Hario Switch, add 15g coffee (set grinder ~30 clicks) to the brew chamber.
  2. 2. Bloom: pour 50g water at 94°C, start timer, stir gently once and let bloom for 30 seconds.
  3. 3. Main pour & agitation: at 0:30 pour remaining water steadily to reach 250g total (finish pour by ~0:45), then stir in a circular motion ~10 times.
  4. 4. Steep & release: close/cover the Switch and allow immersion until total brew time ~2:30. At ~2:30 flip the switch to drain into carafe and let finish draining (~15–30s).
  5. 5. Serve: decant and enjoy immediately. Total contact time ≈2:30–3:00.
Pro Tips
  • 💡 Use the Switch’s immersion: even extraction highlights the coffee’s black currant and plum acidity—gentle, consistent stirring after the main pour helps integrate flavors without overextracting.
  • 💡 Key factor: control grind and contact time. This Kenyan is bright—if you want more sugarcane sweetness, slightly finer grind + a 1–2°C warmer water or an extra 15–20s of immersion will round acidity.
Troubleshooting

Sour → grind finer 2–4 clicks, raise brew temp 1–2°C, or add 15–30s of steep time. Bitter → grind coarser 2–4 clicks, reduce temp 1–2°C, shorten steep by 15–30s, and reduce agitation.
