This is a cold tea kettle, NOT COFFEE

During my time on earth I have used three different coffee makers for cold brewing coffee. Two worked fantastic but unfortunately weren't available when I had to buy a new one (the original two were gifts but I was able to use them regularly for a while). BTaT (Brewed to a Tea) sells his vessel as an iced coffee. Manufacturer, because everything is in fashion. So you will sell more inventory. But that's for tea, not coffee. When using a coarse grind, the coffee will never be fully brewed in water. When you pour it into a glass, the coffee will be light brown in color with enough transparency to see objects on the other side. I suspect it has to do with the design of the screen; The holes on the sides are smaller than those on the bottom, so most of the soaking takes place on the bottom. Less surface area at the bottom of the strainer means weak coffee. I tried steeping for 36 hours, pouring the original water over the ground coffee as slowly as possible (drip-drip-drip), stirring the ground coffee while pouring the water, stirring the ground coffee the next day and soak it. Strainer inside and outside of the jar, like a tea bag. None of them work enough to justify my time or make it an acceptable cold drink maker. Gave them 1 star for the elegant glass design. Yes, and because it is the lowest rating.

Pros
  • Not just useful for its intended purpose
Cons
  • Not the best
