Once just the drink of new parents and college students, cold-brewed coffee isn’t just regular coffee chilled. It’s much more. Crafted with cool water instead of nearly boiling hot water, cold-brew coffee lets time, instead of heat, extract the rich flavors and aromas of the beans. Taking from eight to 24 hours to brew, cold brew is actually the preferred coffee beverage of serious coffee aficionados.
All-day refreshment
This two-quart cold brew coffee maker makes four servings of delicious coffee. Smooth in design and cold brew taste, this deluxe coffee maker has a fine-mesh filter to keep any particles from your brew. It’s suggested to use a medium roast coffee as it imparts a mellower, nutty flavor. Releasing all the deep coffee flavors, the infuser that sits in the center of this BPA-free pitcher has an easy to clean, silicone handle and an airtight lid. Make sure to use any extra coffee for ice cubes.

Smart design
The extra-strong filter can withstand 100 pounds of weight. That’s a lot of coffee. This simple cold brewing method steeps while you sleep. Just add coffee to the sturdy filter, fill the mason jar with water and let it sit overnight. Greet the morning with a less-acidic cup of cold brew coffee or flavorful tea. The 2-quart mason jar has a flip-top spout and leak-proof lid. Everything can be washed in the dishwasher. Don’t put the coffee grounds down the sink drain, compost them instead.

High-temperature glass construction
Although designed for cold brew, the extra-thick glass can withstand boiling water, too. Since cold brewing takes time, we love the tight seal at the top of this lab-equipment-worthy carafe. Now you can make coffee beverages, and experiment with different beans and blends. This also works well for brewing tea, especially for an iced tea that stands up to a glass of ice cubes.
