In this video, we introduce the April Hybrid Brewer, the newest addition to the April Brewers Collection. A combination of Glass and Silicone with a close and release mechanism, this new release provides the user with complete control of the flow rate throughout the brew.
We’re sharing our first recipe, a take on our traditional 12g - 200g April Brewer Recipe. We will be back again soon with more in-depth content sharing differing approaches that you can use to get the most out this brewer, and ultimately your coffee.
The Hybrid Brewer launched at World of Coffee Copenhagen as an offline exclusive, but we expect the brewer to be available online on our web-store later this year.

hey Patrik, does the silicone material gives rubbery taste to the coffee? i remember u mentioned when reviewing the hario switch.

@bradsyoutube Месяц назад

That’s a good question. I personally have never gotten a rubber taste from the switch.

@coffeewithapril Месяц назад

We wrote a reply to @brainwrite but in short after the initial unboxing and rinsing we haven't had any issues with it. But part of launching and using it during the World of Coffee in Copenhagen was to give it a proper test before we release the final version after the summer.

@brainwrite Месяц назад

Hey Patrik, My april brewer is my daily driver, and ironically, an upgrade from the Hario Switch. I'm remembering your original video on the Hario Switch included a critique that the cups tasted 'rubbery.' Suddenly I couldn't help but detect that too (perhaps subconsciously). Have you taken any steps to mitigate that potential?

@coffeewithapril Месяц назад

We have tried out a lot of different materials. And so far we haven't noticed any rubber taste in the coffee apart from perhaps the aroma that comes from when first unboxing it. But we brewed a thousand + cups during the World of Coffee using the hybrid and it worked out really well.

@coma-body-stilllife Месяц назад

cool to have the Hario Switch in a different form factor. I wonder if they ran into any legal trouble with the similarities.

@BrianQuan Месяц назад

Picking up one when it becomes available online ASAP!

@coffeewithapril Месяц назад

We are aiming to put it online after the summer. We brewed 1000+ coffees with it during the World of Coffee in Copenhagen and based on that experience we will do a few adjustments and launch it again. The initial batch was a limited amount specifically for the World of Coffee.

@choyhsien Месяц назад

Perfect! I like the mechanism on the Hario Switch, so it's great that you went with that design. Together with the Switch I already, they cover 4 basic styles. Perfect excuse to drink more coffee :)

@coffeewithapril Месяц назад

It's the same ball mechanism, that originally is developed by another brand. And we have adapted the classic April Wings and fit to be specific to our April Brewer. After the WOC in Copenhagen ,and brewing a lot of coffee with the brewer, we will adjust and adapt even more upgrades to our design.

@Bill-sp8rm Месяц назад

@@coffeewithapril That little ball has been in Chinese tea steepers for decades.

@coffeewithapril Месяц назад

@@Bill-sp8rm That is correct. But we don't believe many in the coffee industry actually knows that.

@cussyrichards6121 Месяц назад

If doing a pure immersion-only brew with this brewer - what is the total water capacity it can hold at any given time? 300ml?

@coffeewithapril Месяц назад

We would't recommend to do a full immersion brew. That said the capacity for one pour would sit around 250 ml.

@bradsyoutube Месяц назад

Very exciting! I’m sorry if I missed this information, but how closely is this able to brew like the regular glass brewer?

@coffeewithapril Месяц назад

The top part is basically identical to the regular April Glass Brewer, the only difference is the outside base, that is designed to fit into the hybrid function. That said, you are not able to fit the original design of the April Glass Brewer into the new Hybrid function.

@EinMyszygeneKopf Месяц назад

Was it created with cooperation wit Hario? The base is almost identical to the Hario switch.

@coffeewithapril Месяц назад

No, it's a development done based on our April Brewers which have always been flat bed brewers. The ball mechanism is similar but that's been around a long time before.

@klaushuber1499 Месяц назад

😅Gotcha! 😉👍

@karimchahine4883 Месяц назад

yeah I also find it weird. That and the incompatibility with the standard brewers + having it made in glass. I feel like those two things are the biggest cons of the Switch and April has addressed neither

@klaushuber1499 Месяц назад

@@karimchahine4883 I 'switched' the glas of my Hario Switch with the plastic cone of the Hario Mugen. It's cheap, you don't need to preheat it and it's much less likely to break. You can find youtube videos that describe that 'switch' 😉 And in addition you can also brew in the Mugen style (Switch open, and one single 15s pour of the whole amount of water). An interesting way of brewing. 😉

@penleypepsi9510 Месяц назад

@@klaushuber1499why does the mugen favor one pour techniques? Isn’t it just a v60 with flat walls?

@klaushuber1499 Месяц назад

@@penleypepsi9510 Yes, the flat walls prevent water of passing by the coffee. The whole concept and the look of the coffee bed after brewing with the Mugen in one pour first seems strange. But interestingly it works. It's the fastest, most uncomplicated pouring technique I know of. And the dripper is cheap. I recommend to review videos on youtube. There are some good ones that possibly explain it better then me 😉

@Kahva123 Месяц назад

Paper filters? Are you introducing a new style of filter specifically for the Hybrid or just a new size or something?

@penleypepsi9510 Месяц назад

Right now April has 2 filters, small and large. The website says to get large ones for the plastic brewer, and Patrik said to use the large ones on this hybrid brewer.

@Kahva123 Месяц назад

@@penleypepsi9510Yea but he says "we have paper filters for it coming as well", implying that there'll be new filters.

@coffeewithapril Месяц назад

The new Filter Paper will be a complement to our existing Paper Filter. The idea is to over time build up a range of different paper filters that can be used to bring out different qualities of the coffee you brew. What is your favourite flat bed paper filter to use today?

@Kahva123 Месяц назад

@@coffeewithapril Sounds good! Some haters in the comments but it's cool to see you guys expanding the April offerings. Takes nothing away from anyone else if they're personally not interested so I don't really understand the toxicity. Have only tried Kalitas and April filters but prefer the April ones for sure! Waiting for the Hybrid + new filter release✌🏼

@lastfour Месяц назад

It is not for everyone, but appreciate the option.

@andrewcorris5396 Месяц назад

It’s just a Hario Switch?! Completely understand that, if patents allow, you might want to make your own, but this video creates the impression it’s something new to coffee, or at least new to you.

@seog1233 Месяц назад

April is a flat bed brewer, unlike the Switch

@bradsyoutube Месяц назад

It’s definitely not just another Hario switch

@johnnyzalami Месяц назад

@@bradsyoutubeit's definitely just another hario switch

@Plusho Месяц назад

funny how it is "just another" hario switch, you can say the same to all different cone brewers "just another" V60, lol, sounds to me that you havent tried them all out and feel the difference between brewers.

Did Hario help manufacture or design it?

@d0rifto1 Месяц назад

i thought the Hario switch had a rubbery taste. according to your video 2 years ago . is your rubber different ?

@Sir1ri Месяц назад

❤

@jules5350 Месяц назад

It looks very similar to switch…

@coffeewithapril Месяц назад

The main difference is the shape of the base which is created around our April Brewers and the Switch is a cone brewer while April only does Flat Bed Brewers which creates a different taste profile and cup quality.

@dylanbeschoner Месяц назад

Nice. It's an attractive brewer. The simplest usage case would be treating the brewer like a filtered French press. One pour with a longer steep. Have you tried that?

@geneticsism Месяц назад

I think if you brew like that the brewer geometry is almost irrelevant no? Its a full immersion brew that gets filtered. BTW, the method you suggested works very well for the Switch. maybe Patrik should try this side by side and check flavor differences.

@dylanbeschoner Месяц назад

@@geneticsism I'm sure it's not *irrelevant*, but yes that brewing approach potentially undermines whatever benefits a flat bottom might have over a cone. Although, the brewer geometry will presumably still affect drawdown times

@doylebbq4329 Месяц назад

so basically copying the switch?

@coffeewithapril Месяц назад

The switch is based on a cone shaped brewer and we only work with the April Flat Bed Brewer shape. The base of the brewer is designed to mimic the standard April Brewer wings and fit the April Glass Brewer.
