Hario Switch 02

Open Bloom

Hario Switch 02 Hario switch by brewnotes.co

Shared by Brew Notes, this Hario Switch method blooms with the valve open, then closes for the main immersion before final drawdown. Early percolation sharpens definition, while the held phase develops body.

Notes

Use 50g for the open bloom and close the valve before beginning the main pour. If release stalls after immersion, coarsen 1 click and keep bloom agitation gentle; a fines-heavy bed compacts easily when reopened.
