HARIOPrepare coffee according to the tea principle, immersion dripper switch, made in Japan, Black

Amazing product if you want the best of both worlds.. immersion blend and drip coffee. The quality of the product and material is brilliant. Not good for travel please keep that in mind.

Very easy to use, and gives a good brew with lots of flavour, takes all the guesswork out of brewing. Easy to clean also. One of my many favourite ways of brewing coffee.

Makes Great coffee with a combination of percolation and drip. Using it as a hybrid in my office with freshly ground beans

When I first opened the box and followed the instructions to ensure the switch was in the “up” position, I noticed it felt loose and not properly in place. I wasn’t sure if it had been used and returned, or just knocked loose during shipping.I looked online and found a quick guide to re-seat the switch. It was easy to fix, nothing was damaged — just an odd issue out of the box.Once sorted, it worked perfectly. Brewing coffee is simple, and the results are excellent. I warmed the glass under a hot tap, folded the paper filter, added freshly ground coffee, poured in water using a gooseneck kettle, waited two minutes, stirred, then flipped the switch — and the coffee flowed right into the cup below, just like it should.The only thing I’d flag is the size — I got the 200ml version, and while it works fine, I found it a bit small for a typical single cup. In hindsight, I think the next size up (Size 3) would’ve been better. My fault for not checking more closely, but worth knowing: 250ml+ is probably ideal for one full serving. I think the value for money if fine, not great, but not expensive, it feels nice, and i love the rubber, so I was happy to pay the price paid.It’s easy to clean, makes great-tasting coffee, and turns a morning brew into a small ritual.Lost one star for the loose switch, but otherwise a fantastic little brewer. Just consider sizing up if you like a full cup.

Easy to use and inexpensive!

Have tried a number of coffee makers/gadgets/machines, this is now my go to. An ingenious idea a single cup ( I'm the only one who drinks coffee in my house) drip/immersive filter coffee maker allowing you to brew you coffee to your liking. You control the brew time by the use of a little valve in the bottom. Also very easy clean up. The only downside (and it's not really one) is that you may find it difficult to find the filter papers in a normal store.

Pop it on a mug, add a filter, add water, add freshly ground coffee, wait three minutes, press the button and in 30s you have perfectly brewed coffee.Combines the positives of a French press (easy, full infusion, depth of flavour) with the cleanliness (of flavour and lack of mess) of a v60 with out any silty residue, or faffing with a slow careful pour.I have a clever dripper too which is now my travel companion, but the Hario Switch is my preference at home because its really nicely made and much easier to clean being glass + silicone. It can go in the dishwasher but I've not needed to, just ditch the filter paper and a rinse gets rid of all the coffee residue.

Love this brewer
