Our verdict

A fridge-steeped cold brew maker that turns ground coffee and filtered water into smooth cold brew for iced drinks. It needs planning ahead, since every batch steeps for many hours.

Overview

A stainless steel steeper holds the ground coffee inside a glass carafe filled with filtered water. The whole unit goes into the refrigerator to brew, then the carafe pours the finished coffee.

Slow refrigerator steeping gives a smooth, balanced brew, and the larger carafe stretches each batch further. Nothing happens fast: you plan a day ahead, and the unit needs fridge space.

Who it's for

Iced coffee drinkers who brew ahead and have a free shelf in the fridge will use it most. People needing hot coffee or a brew ready the same morning should look at a drip machine.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Stainless steel steeper with reusable filter
  • Glass carafe, easy to pour
  • Larger than the original model
  • Manual operation with no settings
Cons
  • Brewing takes many hours
  • Needs a refrigerator shelf to brew
  • Glass carafe can break if dropped
  • Dishwasher safety not listed

Performance notes

Flavor is governed by grind size, the coffee to water ratio and how long the steeper stays in the cold water. A longer steep extracts more, while fresh grounds and filtered water shape the taste.
