Optimised Brewing with a Single Pour
The Hario Mugen Dripper introduces a new approach to pour-over coffee, designed for a smooth, continuous single-pour method. Its star-shaped ribs are engineered to guide water evenly through the coffee grounds, allowing for controlled extraction without the need for segmented pouring or pre-infusion.
Features and Flavour Highlights
Unlike traditional drippers with spiral ribs, the Mugen’s star-shaped design slows down the flow rate by keeping the filter paper closely aligned to the dripper walls. This slower flow increases extraction concentration, making it ideal for single-pour brewing. The dripper and its base are separable, making it compatible with dripper stands and the Hario Switch System. The base also features a built-in hole for hanging and drying.
Features and Highlights
- Single-Pour Design: Star-shaped ribs facilitate steady water flow for a professional-level cup.
- Separable Base: Compatible with dripper stands or the Hario Switch System.
- Slow Flow Rate: Enhances extraction and flavor concentration without complicated techniques.
- Practical Design: Base includes a hole for convenient wall hanging and drying.
How to brew with Mugen Dripper?
- Use CAFEC cone-shaped filters.
- Add 20g of coffee grounds to the dripper.
- Pour 240ml of hot water in a slow circular motion over the center of the grounds—no pre-infusion required.
- Allow the coffee to drip completely, then remove the dripper and serve.

"HARIO, The King of Glass"
Since our founding in 1921, HARIO has been committed to the design, production, and sale of high-quality heatproof glass. We are the only manufacturer in Japan that produces heatproof glass in our own factory.
Originally specializing in laboratory glassware, HARIO expanded into household products in 1948, beginning with the coffee siphon. In 1980, we further diversified by manufacturing automotive headlight lenses. Today, our product range includes everything from microwave-safe kitchenware and coffee and tea accessories, to aromatherapy and pet products.
The name HARIO is derived from the Japanese words for glass (玻璃, "hari") and king (王, "ō"), reflecting our goal to be recognized as the world’s leading glass manufacturer.

If a parcel is returned to us because of an incorrect or incomplete address, refusal of delivery, or failure to collect the parcel, additional shipping costs may apply before the order can be sent again.
Returns
14-Day Right of Withdrawal – EU Consumers
If you are purchasing as a consumer, you normally have the legal right to withdraw from an online purchase within 14 days without providing a reason.
The 14-day withdrawal period starts on the day after you, or a person designated by you, receives the goods. If one order is delivered in several shipments, the period starts after receipt of the final item.
To exercise your right of withdrawal, please inform us within this 14-day period through our online withdrawal function or by contacting us at info@kohiraifu.com and clearly stating that you wish to withdraw from your purchase.
Please include your order number whenever possible.
After notifying us of your withdrawal, you have a further 14 days to send the goods back.
Return address:
Kohiraifu
Noordkade 68
2741 EZ Waddinxveen
Netherlands
For change-of-mind returns, the direct cost and risk of returning the goods are the responsibility of the customer. We strongly recommend using a tracked shipping service and keeping your proof of shipment.
Condition of Returned Products
You may inspect a product to the extent reasonably necessary to establish its nature, characteristics and functioning, similar to what would normally be possible in a physical shop.
Please return the product complete, including its accessories and, wherever reasonably possible, its original packaging.
If a product has been handled or used beyond what is reasonably necessary to inspect it and this results in a reduction in value, we may deduct the corresponding diminished value from the refund.
Refunds During the 14-Day Withdrawal Period
For a valid withdrawal of the complete order, we will refund:
- the purchase price of the returned products; and
- the cost of our least expensive standard delivery option originally available for the order.
Additional delivery charges resulting from choosing a more expensive delivery method, such as express shipping, are not refundable.
If only part of an order is returned, the original delivery charge is not refunded.
The direct cost of returning the order to Kohiraifu is the responsibility of the customer unless the product is faulty, damaged, incorrect, or we have agreed otherwise.
Refunds will be made using the original payment method. We may withhold the refund until we have received the returned goods or until you provide evidence that the goods have been sent back, whichever occurs first.
Voluntary Returns – Up to 30 Days
In addition to your statutory rights, Kohiraifu may accept eligible products for return for up to 30 days after delivery.
Returns requested after the statutory 14-day withdrawal period are part of our voluntary return policy and require prior approval.
For returns between day 15 and day 30:
- The product must be unused, complete and in resalable condition, preferably with its original packaging.
- The customer is responsible for the return shipping costs.
- Original shipping charges are not refundable.
We reserve the right to decline voluntary returns that do not meet these conditions.
This voluntary return policy does not limit any statutory consumer rights.
Coffee, Matcha, Food & Consumable Products
Certain statutory exceptions to the right of withdrawal may apply to products that deteriorate or expire rapidly, or to sealed products that are not suitable for return for health or hygiene reasons once their seal has been broken.
Opened coffee, matcha, food products and other consumable products cannot be accepted under our voluntary return policy once opened or used.
This does not affect your rights if the product supplied is faulty, damaged, incorrect or otherwise does not conform to your order.
Damaged, Faulty or Incorrect Products
If your order arrives damaged, faulty, incomplete or different from what you ordered, please contact us as soon as reasonably possible at info@kohiraifu.com.
Please include:
- your order number,
- a description of the issue, and
- photos or video where this can help us assess the problem.
Please keep the product and its original packaging until we have reviewed the case.
Where the product is confirmed to be faulty, damaged or incorrectly supplied, Kohiraifu will arrange an appropriate solution and cover reasonable return shipping costs where a return is required.
Your statutory warranty and conformity rights are not affected by this policy.
Exchanges
If you would like a different product, colour or variation, please contact us first.
Depending on the product and stock availability, we may arrange an exchange or ask you to return the original product and place a new order.
Wholesale & Business Orders
The statutory consumer cooling-off period does not apply to purchases made for business or professional purposes.
Wholesale and other B2B returns are therefore subject to separate conditions and require prior written approval from Kohiraifu.
This does not affect claims relating to products that were damaged, faulty or incorrectly supplied.
