Do I need to use special coffee beans for Cold Brew in this Hario Mizudashi?
You can use almost any coffee bean with the Hario Mizudashi, but for the best results we recommend choosing a coarser grind and opting for beans with a profile that is sweet, fresh, and low in bitterness. Cold Brew generally brings out the sweeter, milder notes in coffee. Feel free to experiment to taste!
What exactly does the ‘wine-like’ acidity in this coffee mean?

Customers who were unsure about this description still recognised this unique profile when tasting.
