my coffee daily driver

Style

For my daily coffee routine, I love using the V60 switch due to its control and simplicity. The hybrid between immersion and drip brewing offers the best of both worlds: full-bodied coffee with the clarity of a pour-over.

The Method

The V60 switch allows you to bloom the coffee and let it steep for a while before flipping the switch to finish the brew. This method emphasizes sweetness and balances flavors.

Recipe

• Coffee: 18g of medium-ground beans
• Water: 300ml at 94°C
• Brew time: 3-4 minutes
• Ratio: 1:16

Step-By-Step

1. Preheat the V60 switch and your cup.
2. Add 18g of coffee, ground slightly coarser than table salt.
3. Pour 50ml of water to bloom, stir gently, and wait for 45 seconds.
4. Slowly pour the remaining 250ml of water over 2 minutes.
5. Flip the switch after 2-3 minutes to let the coffee flow into the cup.

Tuning

You can adjust the grind size to control the strength and clarity of your brew. A finer grind will intensify flavors, while a coarser grind will give you a cleaner cup. Experiment with brew times for different coffee profiles.
