The Hario Mizudashi is a Japanese glass jug built for one job: cold brew at home. It needs no machine and no electricity, just coffee, cold water, a fridge and time. Mizudashi means "cold-brewed" in Japanese.

How it works

A fine mesh filter sits inside the jug and holds the grounds, so the coffee comes out clear and smooth without paper filters. The jug itself is borosilicate glass, so it does not take on flavours or hold on to odours. The lid seals tightly, so the brew will not pick up other smells while it sits in the fridge, and this black 1000 ml version stands upright in most fridge doors.

Making cold brew

Put 80 g of coarsely ground coffee in the mesh filter, about as coarse as for a French press.
Slowly pour in 1000 ml of cold, filtered water.
Close the lid and put the jug in the fridge.
Leave it for 8 to 12 hours, then lift out the filter.

That is a ratio of roughly 1:12. For a concentrate, use 1:8, or 125 g per litre, and dilute with water or milk to taste. Steeping can run from 8 to 24 hours: start at 8 for a mild cup and go longer for more depth. Set it up in the evening and it is ready by morning.

Cold brew tea

Put loose tea or tea bags in the filter instead, add cold water and leave it in the fridge for 6 to 8 hours for a smooth, aromatic iced tea.

A hand grinder lets you grind fresh and control the coarseness, and a scale helps you repeat your ratio every time. Browse our coffee equipment and the rest of the Hario range.

Customer Questions

Which coffee and which grind do you use in the Hario Mizudashi cold brew pot?

Choose a coarse grind for the Hario Mizudashi, comparable to the grind size for a French press or Chemex. A fine grind passes through the mesh filter and makes the cold brew cloudy and bitter.

As for the bean, our customer service usually recommends a 100% arabica. A smooth, slightly sweet or nutty coffee works nicely, and a dark roasted bean can work too as long as it is not too bitter. If you order the beans from us, on request we grind them straight away to the right grind size for cold brew.

How much coffee goes into the 1000 ml Hario Mizudashi?

For the 1000 ml Mizudashi you allow about 80 grams of coarsely ground coffee to 1 litre of cold water. That works out at a ratio of roughly 1 to 12 and gives a ready to drink cold brew.

If you prefer a concentrate that you dilute later with water, milk or ice, use about 125 grams to 1 litre (1 to 8). Put the coffee in the mesh filter and pour the water over it slowly, so that all the coffee gets thoroughly wet.

How long should cold brew steep in the Hario Mizudashi and how long does it keep?

Let the Mizudashi steep in the fridge for 8 to 12 hours for a mild cold brew. If you want more body and a fuller flavour, you can go up to 24 hours. Set the pot up in the evening and you will have fresh cold brew the next morning.

Take the filter with the coffee grounds out as soon as the coffee is ready, otherwise it keeps on steeping. In a clean, well sealed pot your cold brew keeps for up to two weeks in the fridge, although it is at its freshest in the first week.

Can you also brew tea in the Hario Mizudashi?

Yes, the Hario Mizudashi is suitable for coffee and for tea. Put loose leaf tea or tea bags in the mesh filter, fill the pot with cold water and place it in the fridge.

For cold brew tea you allow a steeping time of 6 to 8 hours. Because you are using cold water, hardly any bitter compounds are released and you get a smooth, clear iced tea.

What is the Hario Mizudashi made of and is it dishwasher safe?

The jug of the Hario Mizudashi is made of heat resistant borosilicate glass from Japan. The lid and the built in mesh filter are made of plastic. Glass does not absorb odours or flavours, so your cold brew stays neutral in taste.

According to the product information the Mizudashi is dishwasher safe. To be on the safe side, always check the instructions for use supplied with it. Rinse the mesh filter thoroughly after every use, so that no coffee oils are left behind.
