That’s a good question. Been a while since I’ve gone actually immersion brewed with it (usually just pour over and use the stopper for pre heating with less water). I’ll make a couple of cups and get back to you.
Edit:
Cup making done! The immersion brew is super clean and easy. I do think some type of lid would help for longer brew times to keep the heat in on the Switch though.
I think both the Aeropress and Switch Immersion lend themselves well to darker (chocolatier/nuttier) extractions. After this little test I will probably switch over to immersion brewing for my afternoon decaf for the foreseeable future!
Can’t say enough good things about mine.
If I would start all over, the only two coffee makers I would own are:
How are they in comparison when Hario Switch isn’t used as V60?
Comparing Switch Immersion vs Aeropress?
