Review on ☕ Takeya Patented Deluxe Cold Brew Coffee Maker: The Ultimate 1 qt Black Experience by Christine Bergseth

So I have the 1 and 2 liter versions. At first I used the directions with the number of tablespoons for each but found that the flavor and strength were lacking compared to the cold beer I drink from cafes. After reading online I got a better understanding of the coffee to water ratio. Here are some things I've learned. 1) If you're grinding the beans yourself, you'll want them to be a bit coarser. This helps with extraction and prevents coffee grounds from getting into your drink. 2) If you have a measuring scale it will help. Repeat the achievement every time. (They cost about $10 at Revain, I already had one for other groceries) 3) Manufacturers - 1 quart and 2 quarts, which is about - 1 quart = 32 ounces = 946 ml - 2 quarts = 64 ounces = 1892 ml4) Am coldest brew ratios say 1 part coffee to 8 parts water (1:8) up to 1:4 for stronger concentrates. I have a problem with the Takeya brewer. The supplied filters are not wide enough to catch enough coffee grounds. The filters are the same for the 1 quart and 2 quart sizes, with the 2 quart size having an extension. If you fill the filter to the brim you can fill just over 100 grams, I got around 104 grams. At 104 grams in a ratio of 1:8, 832 ml of water are required. At a strong 1:4 ratio, that's 416mL. That means the brew will give you about 28 or 14 ounces of booze. For a 1:8 concentrate, that's about 3/4 of a bottle and for a strong concentrate, less than 1/2. extension, you can get about 140 grams or so. but who knows whether the beans are called in the extension. At 140 grams, a 1/8 ratio is 1120ml of water and a 1:4 ratio is 560ml. A concentrate ratio of 1:8 gives you about half the capacity of the bottle, but to steep overnight you need to they lie on their side so that the water comes into contact with the coffee, which it barely covers and covers is not possible with a ratio of 1:4. With the right ratio you get great taste and a strong cold drink that suits you. The problem is the size of the filter and the amount of coffee you can put in it. The 1 liter version can be used, especially in the 1:8 ratio, but the 2 liter version cannot be used because you cannot use enough coffee for it. I am currently using the 1 liter version for brewing and the 2 liter version to contain my brew to repeat another brew in the 1 liter version. I'll keep using this until I find a better one.
