Here's an EASIER AND CHEAPER way!

My relatives swore by this product, so I bought one. But WOW! This is a lot harder than it should be. We don't use it anymore. I'm tired of worrying about the wool floor filter (which can let coffee grounds through and always looks dirty because of the built-in coffee grounds); rubber floor plug (which can be lost, had to be bought new); messy grinding cleaning (which takes a long time); and complicated procedures (which you need to remember). Here's an EASIER and CHEAPEST way: 1) From the same company, just buy Toddy THMPF20 Paper Filter Bags, Home Model Filters, Natural, 20-pack, which are similar to coffee filters except for the larger bags (NOTE: they don't carry any you don't normally get with the toddy -System supplied; they are purchased separately and are considered an optional product, but in fact they are the easiest to use and the only thing you need!The main thing is that the water you pour rises high enough in the container for all the coffee fill up in the pot). filter).3) Pour 7 cups of water into the coffee filter bag and let it sit for about 10 hours (or as long as you usually brew). It can be inside or outside the fridge. Don't worry about the coffee grounds falling out - the bag just sits in the right position when it gets wet if you're using a container that works well with the filter (e.g. a small saucepan). 4) After brewing, lift the filter bag out of the jug and squeeze it to get all the coffee juice out (or just let it flow out). 5) Discard the filter bag with ground coffee. Pour the coffee from the coffee pot into any pot, or if you've already brewed it in one pot, you don't need to pour it into another pot. just right? Here's the COMPLICATED way to do it (how the toddy system works and why we don't use it anymore): 1) First, the toddy system requires you to finish grind your coffee (which is why we have a grinder), be it because, you buy extra filters 2) To set up the system, you must first plug the hole in the bottom of the white tub with a wool filter (which turns into a mess of stuck grounds and sometimes doesn't prevent finely ground coffee from seeping out) 3 ) Then you need to plug the hole underneath with a rubber stopper, which will stay in place until the coffee is set and brewing. 4) Then empty your coffee grounds bag into a white container and add 7 cups of water. 5) After about 10 hours (or however long you wish to steep) place a white container on top of the glass jug to allow the coffee to strain. But first you have to remove the rubber stopper, then the coffee starts to spill out before you can put it on the glass jug, so it always makes a bit of a mess for me. 6) Once you place the white cup on the glass jug, the coffee will be filtered into the jug through the wool filter at the bottom of the white tub. The wool filter can be reused, but you will never clean it, so explain to the family that it can be dirty and don't throw it away). 7) After the coffee is strained, a mess of coffee grounds is left in the white tub, which you need to scoop out with your hands or empty into the bin, then rinse the tub thoroughly. too much pain Go the easy way.
