Brewing Guides

Hario Switch

Temperature
92°C (198°F)
Ratio
1:15 (15g coffee : 225g water)
Grind
Medium-fine — about 10–12 clicks on a 1Zpresso J (slightly finer than table salt)
Grind Adjustment

if sour: grind slightly finer (move ~1–2 clicks finer), if bitter: grind coarser (move ~1–2 clicks coarser)

Brewing Steps
  1. 1. Bloom with 30g water for 30 seconds (pour gently to fully saturate grounds).
  2. 2. Pour to 150g total by 0:45 — give a gentle 3–5 second stir to equalize extraction.
  3. 3. Pour to 225g total by 1:15; let steep undisturbed until 2:00, then place Switch on cup and open valve to draw down (expect drawdown ~20–30s).
  4. 4. Total time ~2:20–2:30 (including drawdown). Serve immediately.
Pro Tips
  • 💡 To highlight the coffee's blackberry and floral notes, keep agitation minimal after the initial stir and avoid very high temperatures — dark roast can become flat or bitter if overextracted.
  • 💡 Aim for a steady, even drawdown: if the switch drains too fast or too slow adjust grind in small steps and be consistent with pour timing for reproducible results.
Troubleshooting

Sour → grind slightly finer, raise brew temp to 94°C or extend steep by 15–30s; Bitter → grind coarser, lower temp to ~90°C, shorten steep/drawdown or reduce agitation.
