Deluxe Cold Brew Coffee Maker - BPA-Free Tritan Pitcher with Airtight Leakproof Lid, Silicone Grip Handle, Fine-Mesh Filter - Shatter-Proof, Dishwasher Safe, Made in USA - 1 Quart/White

In one sentence: excellent cold brewer that can make mortal coffee into a breakfast Demi-god. Ok, so hyperbole aside - this brewer is excellent. Very easy to use. Well constructed and delivers on the advertised promise of good coffee. I recently used this to brew some coffee using box box store economy coffee [think folgers or m-well house]. The results? More than passable and quite good. I wanted to deal this brewer a bad hand to see what it could do and I stand impressed. It transformed coffee that we loathe to brew hot into a smooth and mainly flavorful affair. I'll be using better coffee in the future - but am convinced that this brewer will continue to deliver. Product-wise, this is a very well thought out device. The sealing top is a great touch. The quality plastic (no bpa) is a minor demotion - but since this is being used in a cold application, I am less concerned with any kind of potential leeching. The size is another high point. It sitting in the fridge door is a smart choice and much appreciated. The capacity is enoug for my use. It produces four concentrated servings that suit my family's size well (2 coffee drinkers). The value here is superb. Cold brew is available in the grocery store at about $5 a bottle, so this stands to save on the cost of coffee and to produce less waste. Very pleased with this product. Looking forward to many smooth cups in the future. One tip: The coffee measurement is 14-16 tablespoons. If you aren't big on counting all the way to 14 or so, it looks like the coffee when measured and in the filter essentially lines up with the top of the filter where the mesh ends on the inside. So not all the way up - but right above the internal line of the filter. Hope that helps.

So I love tea, but I hate being warm. I've had a bunch of loose leaf tea just sitting in my cupboard throughout Summer because I didn't want to drink something warm when it was already too hot in our house. From the first time I used this it immediately became a "why didn't I buy this sooner?" kind of thing. Now I always have tea either steeping or ready to drink. I've used it with both green and black teas, which have both been fantastic. Going to try a herbal chai tea next. The tea tastes perfect, exactly as it does with a perfectly steeped hot tea, but with cold brewing it somehow doesn't get bitter when you leave the tea in too long, it stays perfect, so it's even easier than brewing hot. And I get four large cups out of this, instead of 2 with my kettle. Went with Takeya specifically because I use one of their metal insulated water bottles daily, and love it. Same quality here. I kinda wish it was glass instead of plastic, but at least if I drop this it isn't going to shatter on my feet. Drawbacks? If I'm being hyper-nitpicky, the way that the filter threads into the lid is kinda tricky. I usually have to try two or three times to get the threads lined up right. Can't recommend this enough. One of the best purchases I've made on Amazon in a long time.

I've had and used several times a week for 4.5 years. This is just an outstanding little set up. Easy to use and easy to clean (as long as you don't let the coffee grinds dry in the filter). Really durable, great buy that makes excellent could brew.

My first attempt at making cold brew low acid coffee in the hope that it could help with a long term acid reflux problem. Pleasantly surprised at how easy this coffee maker is to use and clean. I used Bizzy brand dark roast coarse ground coffee and it tastes great and is plenty strong for my tastes. (I prefer a strong dark roast). I’d give it five stars if the beaker was glass instead of plastic.

I'm updating this review. I've watched a couple vids on this thing, and everyone seems to be doing this the hard way. The basket it tall and skinny. You have to hold it and spoon the coffee in. Ho hum, what a bother. Wait a minute! No you don't! This is much easier: Before you fill the brewer with water, just plop the basket into it, which holds it for you. Then you can simply pour the coffee into the basket directly from the bag it comes in, one handed, while you smoke a $25 cigar with the other hand! There. That was a lot easier, wasn't it? Then, remove the basket, screw the lid on, fill the container with water, and you're golden. It's watertight, so shake it a few times. They recommend 24-36 hours. There's a couple ways to speed that up. Heat a quart of water in the microwave, but not quite to boiling, and use that water. The plastic is rated for it. Then let it sit out overnight. Cold brew can easily exist at these temps for 12 hours or more. Warmer temps = quicker cold brew. Reviewed.com thinks this is the best cold brew pitcher out there. I agree. It is a marvel of engineering. Everything about it is just perfect. Whenever you pick it up, fill it, clean it, or use it, it's fun, because it feels solid and elegant, and well-thought-out. And the price is right. The only thing that could make it better is a water-line mark for filling (added my own). And, it's cute! Do you have to remove the basket after 24-36 hours? No. I leave it in until the cold brew is gone. No problem. Day 4 will be a tiny bit stronger than day 1. Is sediment really an issue? Let's put that one to bed, right now. In a word, no. It's really not. Sediment has a couple of minor problems. But the biggest problem it has is that it might be visually unappealing. The other issue is has is it can impart a gritty feel to the palate. Other than that, it really has no other issues at all. But there are simple ways around this, much simpler than refiltering. What is sediment? Is sediment a bad word? Again, no. Sediment is coffee. It has the exact chemical structure as the molecules suspended between water molecules in the rest of the coffee. So it is not something to be abhorred because it might be ruining your coffee. It actually is coffee, so that would be impossible. And you can ignore it. Sediment is clumps of those same coffee molecules too large to be suspended along with the other molecules, so it sinks to the bottom of the brewer, or to the bottom of the cup. Just pour from the brewer, and the sediment (99% of it) stays behind. If any gets in your cup, it sinks to the bottom. About the worst that could happen is that there could be a slight gritty texture to the very last drops in your cup. Your very last half-sip as you drain the cup. That’s it. If you don’t like that, just don’t do that. Stop when all that is left is the tiny bit of sediment (and the cup will clean easier, too). But it doesn’t taste bad. It tastes like coffee. It is coffee. It is honestly not a problem. And if you are put off by the visual of sediment, you can ignore that, too. It sinks, so it’s out of sight. This brewer does create sediment. Is it a problem? No. And if you want even less sediment, just use a coarse ground, and let the brewer sit another day longer. Grinding the coffee yourself in a hand grinder (actually kind of fun!) will give the least sediment, if done properly. The secret to long life is flexibility. Cold-brew is a sea change, it’s different than what we were used to for generations. But it’s better in many ways. It’s a welcome change. It’s a new paradigm, and is the new normal. If you can get over the fact that coffee you have been used to does not have sediment, and that cold-brew might have a small amount (which is not problematic and is both easily ignored and avoided) then you’re golden. I've used this brewer for 4 years. It's still going strong, and never disappoints.

This is an easy to use and very easy to clean Cold brew container, the filter is very fine and no coffee particles end up in the brew. One thing I would recommend is not to place the coffee grinds into the sieve, but place them inside the jar with out the sieve being used until you want to filter the mix as trying to get the water in contact with the coffee grinds packed in the sieve isn't as easy as it is to just shake the container with the grind lose inside, you get a better end result, If I were you I would try both ways and see which you prefer. They say to do a coarse grind, I haven't found any difference with a coarse or fine grind, flavour seems to be exactly the same, I find time makes the biggest difference as well as temperature. Yes it's a cold brew :) but how cold will tell you how long to keep it in, my fridge is set a little colder than the recommended 4C, this means that things inside the fridge last longer, it also means the Cold brew will brew a little slower. Just remember though that it's a to your taste brew, just make a few different brews trying different grinds as well as time in the fridge, I have it to the point where I like the end result and only need one third of a cup of brew to make a very nice Iced Coffee or I add the milk/water to the level of my cup and pour the mix into my little saucepan and heat it up to have a hot coffee, I am not a fan of Microwaves for drinks, each to their own :) Lastly, the beans also will make a difference, this means a different brand of Beans will give a different result, I use two brands of Beans and mix them, this way I get the flavour I really enjoy.

Trés bien penser, extrément simple d'utilisation et trés bien fabriquer, se refermer parfaitement. Rien de tel que du café infusé a froid avec des glaçons par ces temps ci de chaleur

This is my second purchase of a cold brew coffee maker. But not the same as my previous one. The old one I had was made out of glass and unfortunately, it was pretty thin and lasted for a year and a half. It developed a crack near the lid on top. So I decided to get a new one before the crack propagates to the bottom of the glass jug. This was an item with a decent amount of reviews and was ranking 4.5 stars. This item exceeds the previous cold brew maker in terms of rating by the number of reviews and roughly the same ranking. What do I like? It is made out of plastic, but of high quality and should last longer The lid completely closes the container so there is no chance of spilling. Much quicker to completely soak the coffee grounds all that is needed is to give it a good shake. Most items in this category usually need stirring. Everything just screws on. What I dislike The instructions mention if you want to make it more concentrated it is recommended to pull the filter out and drain the remaining liquid into the rest of the concentrate for 45mins. But there is no easy way to do that unless you have a separate container where you can pour the concentrate and for the filter to rest above it. Because this a close and shake cold brew maker would imagine the rubber seal will be the first thing to go. But im sure that can be easily replaced. I have not given a flavour rating as I think it is irrelevant to this item because you're never going to get apple to apple comparison between other individuals who have written a review. But what I will say in comparison to my old one, the ratio between coffee and water seems higher than my previous one which required 1.1L to 80g of coffee. The instructions for this item require around 950ML to 108g of Coffee so it is more concentrated.

This product is a good summer time must in my home since we drink lots of cold brew. It’s good quality and makes good coffee! Easy to clean and use. I use these Folgers and it makes decent cold coffee!

its very great product
