Crafted from premium materials including sustainable rubber tree wood, brass accents, and heat-resistant borosilicate glass, this stunning tower extracts a incredibly clean, sweet cold brew concentrate with almost zero bitterness.

Low-Acidity Drip Extraction The precise ice water drip configuration isolates the brightest flavour compounds from your grounds while leaving harsh, bitter oils behind.

Premium Structural Elements Built using specialized Yama borosilicate glassware, a heavy sculpted hardwood frame, and a highly durable brass needle valve mechanism.

Generous 945ml Capacity Brews 6 to 8 cups of rich coffee concentrate in a single session, making it a stellar option for home kitchens, offices, and boutique cafes.

Hands-Off Brewing Control Adjust the simple drop rate control, let the gravity system work over a few hours, and store your finished beverage in the fridge for up to two weeks.

OVERVIEW
OVERVIEW

Introduce an element of theater and exceptional craftsmanship to your daily coffee routine. Unlike standard immersion styles that can occasionally taste heavy, this method slowly passes iced water through a column of fresh grounds using gravity alone. The result is an incredibly bright, smooth beverage that brings out hidden flavor notes, making the Yama Cold Drip Tower a striking addition to any modern kitchen, office, or specialty cafe counter.

The Art of Slow Drip cold Extraction

The beauty of this slow drip configuration is how perfectly it manages the extraction variables. By utilizing an adjustable brass control valve, you can dial in an exact release pace of one drop every 1.5 seconds. This slow progression allows the chilled water to draw out the delicate sugars and intricate flavor oils from the coffee bed over a two to five hour window, keeping acidity and harsh bitterness to an absolute minimum.

Sophisticated Material Selection: The tower is built using durable rubber tree wood for a solid, warm foundation. This beautiful timber frame holds a series of specialized containers made from high-grade borosilicate glass, chosen for its excellent clarity and resistance to sudden temperature shifts.

Versatile Drink Crafting Potential: The 945ml capacity lets you brew a generous 6 to 8 cups in a single hands-off session. Because the resulting liquid is a clean, dense concentrate, it serves as the ultimate base for smooth iced lattes, crisp cold brew sodas, or creative coffee cocktails.

Simple Setup and Convenient Storage Life

Operating the system is straightforward and rewarding. Add medium-ground coffee to the middle beaker over the ceramic filter, and place a paper filter on top to ensure even water distribution. Fill the upper chamber with a fresh mix of ice and water, then set the adjustable valve to your desired speed. Once the process finishes, the clean glass carafe can be moved straight to your refrigerator, where the fresh flavor stays intact for up to two weeks.

Official Yama Cold Drip Brewing Instructions

  1. Check the Valve: Confirm that the brass water drop valve is fully and securely closed before adding any liquids to the tower.
  2. Load Ice and Water: Fill the top glass beaker with a fresh combination of ice and water. Keep an eye on it during the cycle, as the upper reservoir typically needs to be replenished with ice and water twice to complete the extraction.
  3. Set the Base Filter: Thoroughly rinse the circular ceramic filter with clean water, then seat it flat at the bottom of the middle glass container.
  4. Add Coffee or Tea: Add your desired amount of ground coffee directly into the middle container, using a grind consistency that is slightly finer than a standard percolator grind. Alternatively, this versatile setup can be loaded with your preferred loose-leaf tea selection.
  5. Apply the Top Filter and Pre-Wet: Place a paper filter flat over the top of your grounds or tea leaves. For optimal results, you can pre-wet the bed by carefully pouring a tiny bit of water over the paper disk and gently tilting the sides of the middle beaker to ensure the moisture distributes evenly through the ingredients. If you are brewing tea, it is highly recommended to rinse your leaves before adding them to the container.
  6. Calibrate the Drip Flow: Open the brass valve to let the water begin to drop slowly, aiming for a consistent average speed of 35 to 40 drops per minute. Check back periodically to tweak the dial, as you may need to re-adjust the drip pace every 2 to 3 hours. The standard 8-cup model is engineered to complete its cycle in roughly 3 hours, while the large 25-cup system takes about 12 hours.
  7. Enjoy the Finished Extraction: Chilled water will pass steadily through the paper filter, saturate your coffee or tea bed, and flow down through the base ceramic disk into the waiting bottom carafe. Once the reservoir has completed its slow drip, your clean, refreshing batch of iced coffee or specialty tea is ready to serve.
