La Cafetière Seattle Switch It Stirrer Timer

Take the guesswork out of cafetière coffee with the La Cafetière Seattle SwitchIt Stirrer Timer – a clever 2-in-1 coffee stirrer and four-minute brewing timer designed specifically for French press coffee.

Add your ground coffee and hot water, start the timer and use the SwitchIt to stir the grounds. The built-in timer then counts down the four-minute brewing period, giving you an easy reminder of when your coffee is ready to plunge.

Why Buy the SwitchIt?

Making cafetière coffee is simple, but it’s surprisingly easy to leave it brewing while getting on with breakfast. Too little time can leave coffee under-extracted, while leaving it considerably longer can change the character of the brew.

The SwitchIt puts the stirrer and timer into one handy coffee tool. No reaching for your phone, no separate kitchen timer and no guessing how long the cafetière has been sitting there.

It’s particularly good as a small gift because it’s an accessory many coffee drinkers wouldn’t necessarily buy for themselves – but once it’s sitting next to the cafetière, it can quickly become part of the morning coffee routine.

Why The Big Kitchen Chose It

At The Big Kitchen, we already stock plenty of cafetières, so we particularly like accessories that make those products even more enjoyable to use.

The SwitchIt is clever because it addresses two little jobs with one very simple tool. You can stir the coffee as it starts brewing and immediately time the brew without picking up your phone or watching the clock.

It also gives us something different to offer alongside a cafetière, coffee scoop or coffee cosy. Put a few of these products together and you’ve got the beginnings of a brilliant coffee lover’s gift set, rather than simply another coffee maker.
