Hario Switch

Temperature
93°C (199°F)
Ratio
1:15 (15g coffee : 225g water)
Grind
1Zpresso J ~30 clicks (medium‑fine; a touch coarser than espresso, suited for immersion-to-filter)
Grind Adjustment

if sour: grind finer by 2–3 clicks or increase brew temp a degree or lengthen steep by 15–30s; if bitter: grind coarser by 2–3 clicks, shorten steep or lower temp by 1–2°C

Brewing Steps
  1. 1. Bloom with 30g water for 30 seconds
  2. 2. Pour to 120g by 0:45 (gently stir once at ~0:40 to ensure even wetting)
  3. 3. Top up to 225g by 1:30, close the lid and let steep; at 2:30 flip the Switch to drain into the server
  4. 4. Total time: drawdown should finish by ~3:15; serve immediately (total contact ~2:30–3:15)
Pro Tips
  • 💡 Use a gentle single stir during the bloom to collapse channels and encourage even extraction; the Switch gives full-immersion sweetness — then a quick drawdown preserves clarity and body.
  • 💡 Key factor is consistent grind and timing: weigh water precisely and make small grind adjustments (2–3 clicks) rather than big jumps.
Troubleshooting

Sour → grind finer by 2–3 clicks, raise temperature 1–2°C or add 15–30s steep. Bitter → grind coarser by 2–3 clicks, shorten steep or lower temp to 91–92°C, or reduce dose slightly.
