TakeyaTritan Cold Brew Coffee Maker - Airtight Pitcher with Leak-Free Lid - BPA-Free Cold Brew Maker with Silicone Handle - Dishwasher-Safe Pitcher for Homemade Cold Brew - 2 Quart, White

This thing is perfect. I put in 4cups of water and run beans through my countertop grinder and then let it sit in the fridge for a day. No grounds floating around, it seals well in the fridge. I can pour while it's still got grounds in it to check how it's progressing and I can take the grounds out without making a mess. And you can put it all in the dishwasher. It's just perfect!

This is a great way to make cold brew. I don't use the filter that is included because i tend to get coffee grinds in the coffee. I use a tea type bag that I got off amazon and it works like a charm. No coffee grinds in my coffee and the bag is disposable so I just throw it out. NO mess at all.

I am an avid Dunkin Cold Brew fan and came across an article that spoke highly of this item. I purchased it and a bag of Dunkin Midnight ground coffee and am happy to report that my homemade cold brew tastes exactly like the store bought cold brew, at more than half off. It is super easy to make, with clear directions. All you need is this item, the bag of coffee, some measuring spoons (the first time) and away you go.

I really like being able to make homemade coffee. This is super convenient its just I would like to be able to make more coffee because it runs out so quickly!

I use this to make cold brew coffee and it works great. I can easily isolate the coffee grounds from the rest and then shake things up without working about the grounds mixing in where I don’t want them.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Whats to say, it doesnt leak and does the job. 24 hr steep time seems to the sweet spot with the grounds Im using. Only wish is that they offered a gallon size one. Cleans up great too

I purchased both this and the iced tea maker as a way to make my own beverages at home and save some money as well. They are both great products and you might be wondering if they are different at all.First of all, this product works great. Like all Japanese products, it feels high-quality. It is essentially a pitcher with a two-piece detachable filter and an airtight lid with basically two "notch" positions - closed and "open enough to pour," though you'll probably just take the lid off when you serve. The pitcher is oblong, which doesn't come through in the pictures, so you can lay it on its side for brewing, which is recommended for the coffee maker. The handle is also big and thick, with a rubberized grip.The differences between this and the iced tea maker are basically that the filter material used feels different. This has a silky, denser mesh, while the iced tea maker is a more standard, coarse, more open mesh. You can buy replacements for either one. The iced tea maker has a method of pouring hot water directly into the maker for brewing that is not advertised for this one, although everything is exactly the same except for the filter so I'm pretty sure you can use that method with the coffee maker as well, although again the filter material itself is different. The iced tea maker also comes with a little cup that acts as a holder for the filter, which can stand up by itself when the lid is not screwed on. The coffee maker does not come with the cup. I also found that, in general, tea soaks up less water than coffee, so I had to take out the coffee maker halfway through the brew, maybe before I went to sleep, and fill it up with some more water, whereas I didn't have to do that with the iced tea maker. I did find that the handle part of the pitcher where the lid screws in, the actual colored part, often feels slightly loose and made me feel like I had to tighten it slightly. Please note that only the color of this piece and the lid are different. The two-piece filter only comes in black no matter what color you choose. One piece of the filter screws into the lid and the actual filter part screws into that first piece. It has a flat bottom, so can stand-up by itself, as previously mentioned.Of course, this is a great airtight pitcher in and of itself, even when you're not using the filter and just need something big to mix/shake a drink in and pour it. It takes about 2 cups of ground coffee to brew a full pitcher, and I have noticed the slightest bit of leaking as I use this maker. We're talking a few drops after an overnight of brewing on its side and sealed airtight. If you close it all the way and hold it upside down, nothing is going to immediately leak unless you leave it that way for an extended period of time. It's slightly harder to clean out the coffee maker just because coffee grounds are messier than tea, including some thick soupy buildup that you're going to see at the top of the filter. Get ready to shake out about 95% of it into your trash can and rinse out the rest below a running sink. It's also a little hard to find the exact perfect way to pour coffee grounds into the filter without spilling any, and I've settled on using a corner of the bag itself to do it. The iced tea maker seems to come in brighter colors than the coffee maker. Takeya also makes a spa water infuser version of this with a more open plastic filter, but you can easily use this or the coffee maker and just infusion spa water by dropping fruit directly into the water, without having to use the filters at all, which will give you a stronger flavor anyway.The instructions tell you to use medium roast beans, but I love blonde roasts the most and I have made very good cold brew with this. Just make sure you use filtered water obviously and not tap water since you are cold brewing this, and wash everything thoroughly after each use before re-brewing. I have found that flavored beans like vanilla or hazelnut taste absolutely amazing cold brewed with this maker. Please note that you will not yield a full 2 quarters of brewed coffee because the filter and the grounds take up alot of volume in the container. I can get about 3-4 large glasses.

I started using this product recently based on another review. This is now my go to summer coffee drink. You have to use more grinds than normal, but that is all dependent on taste.
