Baraiser Cold Brew Coffee Maker, 3/4 Gallon Iced Coffee Maker with Ultra-fine Mesh Steel Filter and Spigot, White

I have 3 of these. Started with 1. My wife wasn't a big coffee drinker until she had some of the cold brew from this carafe and then she got hooked. Since I like my coffee stronger flavored, I ended up purchasing a 2nd so that I could have one batch steeping while dispensing (and still steeping) another. Over a year later, and my daughter has now started imbibing on my luscious cold brew, so I have purchased yet a 3rd carafe. Goes to show how pleased I am with the quality of these units. They sit nicely in the fridge with room behind for my bag of Costco (Jose's) grounds and some other items, and smaller items even fit on top of these. Notice the oldest one faces front for dispensing while the other two age for a few days before I rotate them. This method works well. The cost savings over buying coffee daily are incredible. I get about 3 weeks out of a bag of beans that costs $14. And, providing it has time to steep before my family sucks it all down, the flavor and strength are incredible. Easy 5 stars. They also include a card in the package and email me after purchase to make sure everything is good. That's a nice touch.

I have to say, I absolutely love this little thing. It's super easy, and it fits on any of the shelves in my fridge, so it's always got a home. The mesh basket is delicate, not fragile, so you have to be careful when cleaning it (can't bang it on the edge of the trash can to knock out the grounds), but it's also a great way to do cold brew. I used to use a gallon jar in which I would put the measured coffee grounds and water, then strain through a filter, and pour into a clean milk jug we kept in the fridge. I'd prep it Saturday, pour it Sunday, and that was our coffee for the week. That's why I'm a little disappointed at the actual volume of this thing. I don't think it's a gallon, though to be honest I haven't actually measured. Here's what I know about the volume: I filled a 32 ounce thermos with ice two times, had two pint glasses with ice, and one tumbler with ice. I feel like it's about 20 to 24 ounces shy of a gallon, which is one more day of coffee. So I have to brew more often. However, I can't take a star away for the size because the design is brilliant. I love the way it fits in the fridge, I love the way you just take out the basket and it's good to go. The spigot doesn't leak, and pours at a pretty decent-but-not-too-fast pace. Also, and this is petty thing, it isn't ugly, like the weird milk jug with brown water in it. Lid fits nice and firm. The plastic is surprisingly thick/feels durable. The bottom is slightly slanted towards the spigot, which is a nice touch. It could be slanted just a tiny bit more, but there's no way to avoid having to tip it up to get the last bit out, so it's fine. I love it. I'll probably buy a second one just to have on hand as a backup, as sometimes companies like this that make niche products for fads like cold brew disappear when the fad dies out. Though cold brew has been popular for a long while now, so who knows. Buy one!

Overall this is a nice product and good value for the price. I don’t love the steel filter cup so I’m removing it and using a few large coffee filter bags that I will steep in the tank. Steel filter leeched a lot of coffee ground particles and took forever to fill the tank by adding water through it to saturate the grounds. Grounds werent fully saturated as filter sits partially above water level. Spout pieces are easy to assemble and disassemble for cleaning while maintaining good seal. Skinny, oblong shape keeps fridge space usage to a minimum

This is my third brewer and so far it’s my favorite. The size is perfect, it makes about 5 days worth of cold brew so I don’t have to make it very often. It fits perfectly in the refrigerator and doesn’t take up much room. My previous maker would constantly clog at the spout but this one flows strong all the time. I did buy a cotton bag used to make nut milk and I put my coffee grinds in it instead of the mesh cup because I like my brew strong. I use 3 cups of coffee, let it bloom and make sure all the grinds are saturated, then I finish filling with water, refrigerate and let sit 24 hours. So far no leaking. If this stops working I will replace it with another one just like it. And the price is right!

I had been wanting to make my own cold brew for a while, but I used cheese cloth a few times and it felt too difficult. I love how easy and fast this makes it to have cold brew. My concern was that the cold brew would taste plastic-y, but it hasn't at all. Definitely recommend! The nozzle is durable and the strainer's coffee grounds capacity is pretty large. The only downside is that the lid is v easy to take off. I wish it had more of a click into place mechanism, but it's still a great value overall for the money I spent.

I got in a nasty habit of buying cold brew coffee at the store. That stuff is expensive. I had to figure something else out. I looked at a lot of cold brew containers, but this one caught my eye for the volume and height. Others with a high volume capacity were taller and I knew I couldn't accommodate that in my fridge. I have been using this for a few weeks and have had no issues. Some commenters noted getting grounds in their coffee. I have not had this. The mesh is very fine and does not let anything through. I can see someone getting grounds if the have the on the top ring, but filling the mesh prior to inserting solves this. The mesh cleans very easily. One thing to note, do not fill this at a high speed. The grounds rise with the water level and could go over the top ring if filling quickly.

I actually like this. I make my cold brew coffee with a 4:1 ratio. 4 cups of water to 1 cup of ground coffee. I use a (L) cheesecloth bag instead of the filter, because the filter won’t hold 3 cups of grounds, but it holds 12 cups of water and 3 cups of ground coffee inside the cheesecloth, perfectly. I lay the filter on top of the loaded cheesecloth, to push it deeper into the water and let it steep 18 to 24 hours on my countertop. It fits perfectly inside my fridge. I haven’t had any leaking (although I just started using it). I actually think I will buy a second one to toss into the white elephant exchange w/family this Christmas. We are all cold brew lovers. And there’s room to add side items like coffee, cheesecloth, syrups, tumbler, etc… inside. Perfect gift.

So we get out Thai tea from Amazon too. So we buy the 4 pack now. So fill up the strainer to the top with Thai tea and fill it up with water soak the tea too so it doesn’t want to spill out of the tea is dry. Wet the tea to prevent that. Also once u do that place it in the refrigerator or leave outside. Best results in the refrigerator. Then 24 hours later u got strong Thai tea and we use star bucks macchiato creamer with our Thai tea and we love it. Try it with any way u want. This unit simple and works great. Only issue sometimes it leaks from the nozzle. Also the strainer is heavy duty feels like it’s 2-3 layers thick and strong. Easy to clean too just rinse with soapy water and use the jet option on ur sink. Might get one more to have a cold brew coffee as well.also we noticed since we are cold brewing the tea no bitter taste in the teas since we don’t Obed brew the tea and it comes out just so refreshing.
