Description
A Dripper That Waits For You
Pour-over rewards precision but punishes hesitation — one uneven pour and the cup shows it. The Hario Switch dripper removes that pressure: steep your coffee like an immersion brew, then release it only when you decide the flavour is ready.
Immersion Meets Pour-Over
A stainless steel ball seals the base of the dripper until you press the switch. Water sits with the grounds — full immersion — until you choose to let it drain, borrowing the clarity of pour-over without losing the body immersion brewing gives.
Built For Control
- Brew time stays entirely in your hands, not the filter’s
- Ideal for side-by-side bean and grind-size comparisons
- Repeatable results, cup after cup
- Approachable for first-time brewers, precise enough for professionals
Specifications That Matter
Heat-Resistant Glass Body
The dripper body is glass, giving a clean, neutral brew with no flavour transfer between cups.
Silicone Base
A silicone base sits under the dripper, adding stability and grip on any brewing station.
PTS Switch Mechanism
The switch itself is made from PTS, engineered to open and close reliably brew after brew.
Stainless Steel Ball Valve
A stainless steel ball forms the seal, holding coffee in contact with water until you’re ready to release it.
V60 Filter Compatible
