Pulse Drawdown

Hario Switch 02 Hario switch by brewnotes.co

Published by Brewnotes, this Switch method pairs a closed immersion bloom with an open, pulsed drawdown. Sustained bed movement and percolation favor a bright, articulate cup with more clarity than full immersion.

Notes

Keep the slurry just above the filter between pulses rather than allowing a full drain. Pour steadily near the center; wide or forceful circles can open channels in the already saturated bed. Coarsen slightly if later pulses stall.
