I feel stupid offering a suggestion to a world champ and her fans.. but I found that rinsing the filter with the dripper lever closed and letting the water dwell maybe 20 seconds gets the glass (in my case) nice and toasty. Then open, swish the water and dump. I usually add 94c water off the boil to the large mug I use. By the time all this is done, the kettle’s water temp is down to about 91-92C for my medium roast.

Great video and cool recipe! Just tried and it came out tasty. 1;14 ratio in a commercial setting makes a lot of sense, as it won't be too tea-like and thin for regular coffee drinkers.

I love the switch where it allows you to steep during the blooming phase. You can extract a lot of the sweetness and florals from the coffee. I’ve noticed for certain coffees a longer bloom definitely helps it then a faster draw down after.

​​It is interesting to see the bloom with the switch closed then the rest of the brew with it opened. Typically, when I brew with my Hario Switch I keep it closed the whole brew. I'm looking forward to trying this.

I visited MAME in April! Great coffee and thanks for sharing the recipe!❤

[DonKangolJones]

Very simple, very quick, very easy to remember and replicate. I can’t wait to try this for myself with my new coffee.

[comsartoo]

Beautiful video ❤

Daterra has lots of great coffees. Laurina being one of their best ones.

[MrTsaoo]

Wow! Ceramic one is so cool, need add one more dripper in my collections.

Thank you Emi for this new brewing method to try with my switch 🥰

[robertjason]

Such a nice person… and teacher. Thanks, I get mine tomorrow… the glass version.

[noxnext]

The very first of what felt like a 100 videos I watched, were the pour was directed solely to the center! Interesting! I will try that out tomorrow morning! Can’t wait! 🙃😋☕️

[sam_musey]

Wow, such perfect timing! My switch just arrived two days ago, and I've been looking for recipes to try (aside from the obvious (but delicious) ones, like Hoffmann's or The Coffee Chronicler's).
So thanks a lot😉

[UserNameNiemand]

I've tried this recipe with clever dripper today. Obviously it's a different device but I was quite surprised with the result)
Thanks for sharing

[coffeefreaks]

Do you have a recipe for this to make iced coffee?

[paulkoestner]

Always appreciate Hario Switch content! Ill definetely try it out. Thanks! :-)

Emi won 2018 brew championship using GINA coffee maker (expensive analog of hario switch). So she knows this techiqie very well. Championship recipe was more complex (2 pours of 80C water, 2 pours of 95C water). You can google recipe.
