Customers love the 5-Cup Cold Brew Coffee Maker for its ease of use and great taste. Many users commented on how simple it is to make cold brew with this coffee maker, and some even said it tastes just like store-bought cold brew. However, some customers mentioned that the filters are tough to find to replace, and a few reported that their coffee maker leaked.
The product is amazing for any cold brew lovers out there. It is very easy to use and makes storage of concentrate even easier/convenient. Don’t forget to wet filter prior to putting into top unit or you’ll have it float on you when you add water. The bottom storage carafe is glass and the top unit is plastic. Everything is well made and is attractive for the kitchen. The directions recommend medium roast, but Dark works better for our family.

I originally purchased this cold brew maker after looking at multiple cold brew systems that were sold out at the time. I eventually settled on this system, and I cannot be happier. Pros: Nice design, drip through/valve at the bottom is functional and easy to use Makes delicious cold brew coffee Comes with two filters Glass flask which is attractive to look at, come with a cover to store Cons: Large/Bulky Upper assembly made entirely of plastic Only comes with 2 filters Glass flask is easy to break and impossible to replace This would be a 5/5 product if filters were easy to find and if bottom flask was easily replaceable. It would also be nice if system wasn't so bulky, but that is asking for a lot.

I bought this to try cold brewing for the first time. The process recommended by Brim for this coffee maker is quite easy to follow and efficient. While the valve is supposed to keep the coffee concentrate from leaking and I did not find any leaks during my cold brewing, I would still recommend placing a piece of food plastic wrap and aluminum foil beneath it to contain any potential leaks. Also, during the transfer process, be careful to put the coffee maker on a flat surface and to avoid high traffic areas where someone might bump into it. Finally, I think the cold brew coffee tastes best by itself without any creamer, and it does uses a lot more coffee than the normal brewing process.
