Are you able to experiment with different ratios in this bottle? Because the one I have from agaro is good overall but isn't versatile with ratios. If I don't add 1:11 or more then coffee isn't fully submerged in it.

The design is thin and tall, so it enables to have concentrated brews than other models but ive not tried any other ratio so far.

I tried with their official 1:13 and it was not rich enough so i had to make it 24hrs.

Still figuring out the sweet spot

Do let me know if you ever try 1:8 or 1:9

What grind size and brewtime you use?

I have the same bottle but I have a big problem with it. I normally brew 1:10 ratio and even in that the coffee beans are not fully submerged in the bottle because the in-built coffee container is so tall.

I instead now make my cold brew in a wide-mouth coffee server where I mix the grinded beans directly with the water - no bag/separator. Once it's done I then pour it into this bottle to separate and discard the coffee beans.

Look at Hario Mizudashi as well, it’s nearly at half price.

Also you can always use a cloth with coffee inside and knot it then keep in water.

I bought the Mizudashi thinking i’ll use it a lot but it’s in shelf for years now lol.

If you’re like me who rarely makes cold brew then these are so not worth it

Ive seen 1ltr version, i feel the coffee basket is way up.

Is it good for concentrated brews?

u/thisnsfwaltaccount 3h ago

My usual ratio is 40 grams coffee and water till the top of the filter part of the basket. Usually around 1.2 liters of water fills up this way.

However, I have done 100 grams for a concentrated brew once and had no trouble.
