"Switch" Immersion Dripper, Size 03

I use it every day and it works great. Have used it for pourover once or twice, works fine too. Perfect size for if you want a large-size coffee or regular size, I would not get any smaller for sure. If two people wanted a coffee regularly I would probably scale up to the next biggest size. There's really no downside to getting a larger one since you can always just use less grounds and water. I guess the size of the unit itself would be the only consideration, but I just keep it sitting in a small mug on the kitchen counter when I'm not using it. The paper filters it comes with are amazing, like really high quality. In terms of brew speed, it kind of depends on how you brew (and your grind size). If you don't shake it before you press the button, the grinds stick to the wall; if you do shake it, they'll fall to the bottom which I think results in a longer brew time. But ultimately I don't care as I just hit the button and walk away, and it drains into my insulated mug, so I can come back anytime to piping hot coffee. The other thing that's amazing about this is how the bottom is flexible rubber (or silicone?) with a little cut-out piece, so it will conform to smaller-opening mugs/cups. It squeezes perfectly into my mug which I didn't think about before I bought it but I realize now it could even squeeze into slightly smaller ones in theory. On taste: obviously this is subjective but I like it better than the aeropress. Because there's no stopper to fumble around with, you just put in your grounds, and then pour the water at any time, press the button at any time. You could even in theory use a little spoon to break up the grounds instead of a shake. So I feel like it's easier to tweak to get what you want. I notice that small adjustments in amount of water I use, brewing time, and pre-button-press shake, make a drastic change in taste, whereas with the aeropress my adjustments weren't as dramatic. On cleaning: I think this is easier to clean than the aeropress. Basically all I need to clean is the glass, which is wide so it's easy to scrub. There's not really any places for coffee to get trapped. Overall this is my favorite coffee brewer I've had. I'm kind of amazed nobody I know uses this. It's so simple and effective.

I have virtually every coffee brewer made and, without doubt, the Hario Switch is my go to and for me it is the most versatile of all of my brewers. It brews great as a standalone pour over brewer (none better) and also is a great standalone immersion brewer. Again, for me, none better. The best versatility of it is as a mix brewer - getting the best of both worlds as I showed in the video - the first 40% of the brew as a pour over (extracts sweetness and acidity) and the other 60% as an immersion (extracting boldness and strength and still sweetness). I recommend the larger brewer (03). The small unit is simply too small and not nearly as versatile as the larger brewer. Another real beauty of it is by controlling the pour over / immersion ratio, you can vary the flavor with every cup you brew. Also, you can obviously increase the volume of coffee you brew by adjusting the ratio of the pour over / immersion ratio. To increase volume, I never brew concentrated and then dilute as some recommend. Flavor is definitely lost doing this. It is much easier to clean than some other standalone immersion brewers and with the paper filter (I use the V60 filter) you filter out the potential cardiotoxic oils and grounds that are left in your coffee with some of them.

Perfect hybrid style brewer. The aeropress got me into the world of brewing. I just hated how coffee would drip through before I’d start plunging. Yeah there’s the inverted method, but I didn’t want to risk spilling coffee everywhere. I saw the hario switch and it’s exactly what I was looking for. The level allows the coffee to steep for as long as you want before you want to brew the coffee. It’s like the pour over and a french press had a baby. You get to steep as long as you want like a french press and get the filtration of a pour over, no more coffee sludge taste. The switch is also so much easier to clean than a french press or aeropress. Just take out the filter once you’re done brewing and rinse it. I’ve had it for 3 years now and it still works great! Just don’t lose the magnetic ball mechanism and you’re good!

It's a V60 with a drain valve, what's not to like! Use it for immersion brewing, pour over, or a hybrid of the two. Easy to use & clean. I'm glad I got the size 03, anything smaller wouldn't make what I consider a cup of coffee (~420ml water in). Good quality, thick glass & silicone. The only plastic bit is the flip switch itself which can be upgraded to a stainless version if you prefer. I recommend Hario's natural filters.

Ich nutze den Hario V60 Switch (Größe 03) nun seit mehreren Wochen täglich – und bin begeistert. Die Kombination aus klassischem V60-Design und dem integrierten Ventilmechanismus macht dieses Modell zu einem echten Gamechanger für Pour-Over-Liebhaber. Man hat die volle Kontrolle über Brühzeit und Flow-Rate, was eine unfassbare Bandbreite an Aromen erlaubt – von fruchtig-hell bis schokoladig-tief. Die Verarbeitung ist wie von Hario gewohnt auf Top-Niveau: Der Glaskörper ist hochwertig, das Ventil funktioniert zuverlässig und lässt sich leicht reinigen. Besonders gut gefällt mir, dass ich sowohl klassische Filtermethoden als auch immersion-basierte Techniken nutzen kann – ein Werkzeug, das kreativen Spielraum eröffnet und jeden Morgen zum Mini-Ritual macht. ☕ Mein Daily Brew – Rezept vom Barista-Profi (angepasst für V60 Switch 03): • 30 g Kaffeemehl (z. B. Honduras 18 Conejo oder Ethiopia Guji, medium-light roast) • 500 g Wasser (ca. 94 °C) • Comandante Mahlgrad: ca. 18 Klicks (mittelfein) • Blooming: 60 g Wasser, 30 Sekunden • Komplett aufgießen auf 500 g • Switch geschlossen halten für 2:30 Minuten, dann öffnen • Durchlaufzeit: ca. 3:30–4:00 Minuten Ergebnis: Kräftige Süße, klar definierte Aromen, kein Overextraction – einfach perfekt. Ein Must-have für Kaffeeliebhaber, die Präzision und Flexibilität suchen. Ich möchte den Hario Switch nicht mehr missen – er hat meine Kaffee-Routine nicht nur verbessert, sondern auf ein neues Level gehoben.

Original product, took time as it probably shipped from outside India. Glass is quite thick

I bought the glass Hario 03 size Switch to replace the Bonavita Ceramic Immersion Dripper, which I had recently broken after 8 years of service. The Switch has smaller total capacity than the Bonavita, which could take up to 500ml at the absolute maximum. However, due to the ease of switching from open-valve to closed-valve in the Switch, I can very easily do half immersion / half pour-over, and get a 500ml or larger serve very easily. The Switch looks better built than the Bonavita, less fragile, the base is made of silicone (and therefore soft), and is easier to travel with. The silicone base comes off the cone too, so if I ever break the glass V60 I can simply replace it with another of my choice - plastic, glass, metal, or ceramic. When you switch from immersion to an open valve, the Switch drains very quickly. It takes regular V60 papers because it is quite literally a V60. You can use the smaller 02 papers if you only make smaller coffees. It's been a pleasure to use so far, and I love that I can use it as both a straight V60 or an immersion/combo brewer. Great stuff!
