I recently got a Hario Switch clone and a metal filter. So far I'm liking a recipe inspired by these YouTube shorts:

Recipe:

  1. Start with 20g of grinds, stir to loosen the grinds and make a divot in the center
  2. With the switch closed, add 150g of 90C (195F) water
  3. Give it a quick stir and wait 1 minute
  4. Add another 150g of hot water
  5. Open switch

What is your daily driver recipe for your Hario Switch?

I've been using James Hoffman's technique for the Clever brewer for my Switch: https://youtu.be/RpOdennxP24 with one small change - I add some additional water during the drawdown to get a bit larger cup, I enjoy a cup with closer to 300 ml water in.

This thread reminds me that it might be time to experiment a little bit, thanks for posting!

What grinder and settings are you using?

My grinder is a Jaffee J1 from AliExpress, and I’m currently using it on ~~30~~ 25 clicks. Oddly I was able to using a finer grind and longer steep time on my French press. Something about the drip seems to extract more from the coffee.

Thanks, I popped you onto the grind settings chart for kicks. https://startrek.website/post/5939784
