Best praise vs top criticism for Hario Mizudashi Cold Brew Pot
“I use my Hario the way you described (fill with water then slowly lower). You just have to make sure the top is off when you lower so it doesn’t pop off from the pressure but it works well for me and makes a great cold brew. Agree 100% with OP on anaerobic in cold brew. I live in Houston Texas so there are entire months where I just need something cold in my life and my go to is a Hario Cold Brew with anaerobic beans.”
“Recently got haribo mizudashi cold brew pot as weather getting warmer, and no matter what I do it comes out very watery tasting. I’ve tried ratios of 1:10 - 1:12, ie 100g coffee to 1 litre of water. I’ve also tried variou grind sizes from very coarse to medium etc, but same result. Grinder is Wilfa Svart classic aroma, and find for French press around the ‘steep’ setting is ideal grind size for me usually. I could just brew French press of hot coffee, let it cool and decant into the cold brew pot to go into the fridge but it’s now bothering me I can’t seem to crack the cold brew recipe.”
