Review on ☕ Mueller QuickBrew Smooth Cold Brew Coffee and Tea Maker - 47 oz Dripper Iced Coffee Brewer with Adjustable Water Flow, Stainless Steel Filter, Borosilicate Glass Carafe by Tara Clark

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice but flawed

I bought this because I spent a lot of money to buy bottled iced coffee at the grocery store. This cold brew machine has great reviews and an even better price, so I gave it a try. First of all, this is a very nice set and I had high hopes for it. However, after two shots of iced coffee, I noticed some significant problems: the instructions recommend using 17-20 tablespoons of coffee, but I can only put 16 tablespoons into the strainer with one level (making it almost full to the brim). . above) - if the mesh insert is very full, you need to pour the water VERY slowly; too much and the coffee grounds will overflow through the spout into the pot. - The jug is leaking through the lid/handle seal. I've learned to pour coffee over the sink, otherwise the cold drink will spread on the counter or floor. Tightening the gasket too much didn't help either. It's also a bit annoying that everything except the carafe itself can be cleaned in the dishwasher.

Pros
  • Positive only
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
