Tested Using Methodology v1.0Overall Verdict
The difference between the Hario Muzidashi and the Toddy Cold Brew System is the contrast between the lowest and the highest scoring cold brew coffee makers. The Toddy uses a free-style brewing method with an adjustable brew ratio and an airtight brewing vessel. It also comes with a quality glass carafe for decanting.
The Hario, meanwhile, is a tall and slender carafe brewer. It lacks an airtight brewing environment and due to a short filter produces a sour, low quality brew. At the end of the day, it is not a cold brew coffee maker that we recommend people buy.
