Hario Cold Brew Coffee Pot Mizudashi 1000ml, 1 liters, Brown, Large

Product Information

The Aeropress can also make hot drinks in a similar way, and has a cult following with caffeine nerds. We loved the Hario bottle for its simplicity and the capacity it had paired with the relatively small amount of fridge space it took up.

We also performed a follow-up test with our original top picks, along with ten other popular options, to get a true sense of the best in the field. When looking for the perfect cold brew, I look for something more concentrated, and smoothness is a huge factor. This cold brew may be super refreshing and drinkable -especially if you use a delicious and clean washed coffee from Oddly Correct– but it is strong and will have you buzzing well into the afternoon if you pound glass after glass of the stuff.Like using a pour-over coffee maker, it's a different approach and requires a little getting used to. The cold brew jug is made of the highest quality heatproof glassware which contains no unnecessary component.

You want your cold brew concentrated so you can play around with it," says Jovanni Luna, barista at Gertie in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The coffee in the full-size packet has been ground very coarsely, which is exactly what you want for a cold-brew as it allows the depth of flavour to slowly percolate overnight. This compact little machine is super easy to use, and a great option if you’re looking for a relatively frill-free coffee machine. Keep in mind this recipe is a starting point and brews a beverage for my personal preference; a strong but bright and vibrant iced coffee beverage.Once you’ve reached your desired brew strength, all you need to do is pull out the brewing chamber, lid the carafe, and throw it in the fridge or you can serve over ice right away.

Amanda Miserocchi, barista at Blue Bottle Coffee in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, says that, besides an intense concentration, a smooth taste is vital. Editor's Note: These are their personal opinions and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of their employers. The process of brewing with this maker starts with placing a small circular paper filter (the machine comes with a pack of 10) at the bottom of the brewing container. We wanted to try an instant cold brew option, but our baristas pointed out that cold brewing is a process that can't be rushed.We found it very tall, so you’re going to need to make sure you can fit it on a shelf in your fridge. While the baristas agreed that this coffee (and tea) maker looked great, the consistency of the coffee wasn't up to par, as some coffee grounds made their way through the metal filter and into the finished cold brew.
