Is the Hario Switch good for beginners?
The great thing about the Hario Switch is that it offers the best of both worlds. You can use the thing as an immersion brewer or as a classic percolation device. The former option is ideal for beginners, seeing as you don’t have to worry about grind size, flow rate and pouring technique. The best pour over coffee maker for beginners is either the Hario V60 or the Kalita Wave. Both make fantastic coffee, but the Kalita Wave is easier while the Hario V60 is faster. Your main consideration should be whether you want to invest in a scale and a gooseneck kettle.Overall, the better drink based on taste depends on you. Hario V60 may be for you if you’re looking for a more complex, longer cup of coffee that highlights the nuances of different beans. If you prefer a powerful kick in the morning (or afternoon) that blends perfectly with milk, then espresso is the way to go.
