Hario Water Dripper Drop – Compact Cold Drip for Your Home
Drop by drop, cold water seeps through the coffee, resulting in a clear, sweet concentrate – the same calm cold drip idea as the large tower, just more compact.
The Water Dripper Drop is Hario's smaller, more affordable cold drip option – ideal for home use. We carry Hario at Coffee Coaching Club.
How Cold Drip Tastes
Because no hot water is involved, hardly any bitter oils are extracted. What remains is a soft, sweet concentrate with delicate aromas and very low acidity. The water slowly drips through the coffee bed; the slower it runs, the more intense the result. The brewing volume is around 600 ml.

Who It's For
For anyone who wants to try cold drip and start compactly. If you're looking for larger quantities and the full tower experience, check out the Water Dripper Clear or the Shizuku.
What Goes With It
For cold drip, you'll want a coarser grind – a grinder from our hand grinders or electric coffee grinders. Accessories and filters can be found in the Hario collection. Chocolatey-nutty beans like Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, or fruity ones like Wild Peach.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much coffee does the Water Dripper Drop yield?
Around 600 ml of cold drip concentrate – enough for several glasses over ice or diluted.
What grind size is suitable?
A rather coarse grind, similar to French Press, so that the water flows through evenly.
How does it differ from the Water Dripper Clear?
The Drop is more compact and affordable; the Water Dripper Clear is the larger glass tower with an adjustable drip faucet and 780 ml capacity.
Roastery Tip
Cold drip rewards sweet, rounded beans – the chocolate and nut notes of Cozy Chocolate or Nutty Delight come through particularly intensely in the cold concentrate. This is our recommendation, one of many.
