Glad you enjoyed it!

Interesting comparison. The factor that made me buy the Clever over the Switch was cost, here in the UK the Clever is £20-25 but the Switch is £50-60 so I could buy the Clever and a Hario 02 V60 for about half the cost. Results are great though, I usually use James Hoffmann's technique (water first as you did on the second brew) as it's simple and easy to get consistent brews.

The lid is what did it for me. I have many pets and I’d rather not leave the coffee brewing uncovered.

Yes the water first and coffee later is the best for the clever!

Same. Switch is so much more expensive and I get great results with my Clever, using the water-first method but, to be fair, that was first suggested by Workshop Coffee in London (www.KZread.com/workshopcoffee9001) and have some great coffees too.

@@MrHarlequin2316 it was actually Demitasse Coffee in the US that suggested water first using the Clever. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZnWuqtmNlbq7mqw.html

The cost of filters is a factor as well... Clever uses #4 std filters versus custom filters for the Hario.

Nice video, keep it up!

Great video, thank you!👍👍😊

If you didn’t pre-heat, the switch is going to brew much cooler. All that glass dumps a lot of heat.

Yes, always pre-heat!

I can’t be the only person who stirs the coffee in the clever while it drains. Have you tried this?

I stir with the clever to mix the coffee and water well. Haven't tried while it drains, will try next week!

Clever wins by many lengths IMO. Bought some switches, nor have gifted them. sure they are glass which is nice. Had some leks at silicone collar. Having to engage the lever is just one more thing to think about vs just picking up the clever after brewing your favorite way and placing on mug of choice. Less expensive less likely to break far more common filters. Better heat retention. MICROWAVEABLE After having been convinced that using boiling water is superior through James hoffman vids, decided to have water as close to boiling as possible for the whole brew. So clever filled with boiling water and grindas as you wish. pop in micro for bursts of seconds (depends on your nuker. 15 seconds pause for a minute 15 seconds again pause a minute. 15 seconds. remove and place on cup. WILL BOIL OVER if you over do it. Some "inverter" microwaves have a low setting where you might be able to dial it in to "simmer and not boil over. Try it before you buy it: the cup I just made IS far "brighter" than the same I made on the counter yesterday. Also I am really feeling the caffeine, certain there is more extraction. You can prob tell how hich I am on caffeine because I'm writing so much. Its in my over priced yuppy ember mug which I have come to adore at my "perfect temp" I'm ballparking this cup yo be 30 percent better than yesterdays. I'm sure this method would not remedy a bad coffee. Drawbacks, you could get burned, you must wait longer for it to cool, you can make a big mess of your mama's microwave, you might write overly long posts. Your friends esp coffee snobs will poo-poo you and confirm your insanity. Another plus if you are in a cold climate and don't have an electric mug you cup will be hatter longer.
