The Hario Mizudashi Cold Brew Coffee Pot is the best option if you want a device that you can simply set and forget. It's just a basic glass pitcher with a filter that attaches to the top with a screw. The procedure is as follows: fill the pitcher with cold brew, add the measured coffee grounds to the filter basket, and secure the filter inside the lid. To make cold-brew coffee, fill a pitcher with water and a coffee filter, then seal the pitcher so that the filter is submerged in the water for 12 hours at room temperature or 24 hours in the refrigerator. After the allotted time has passed, remove the filter and the grounds, and pour yourself a pitcher of cold brew.

Pros:

• Easy to implement and reasonably priced
• Dishwasher-safe
• Variety of colors to choose from

Cons:

• The height of the pitcher could prevent it from fitting in some refrigerators.

Size: 8 66 x 4 53 x 6 The dimensions are 69 inches; the method of brewing is immersion; and the yield is four cups.

According to Josey Markiewicz, a barista at La Colombe, a traditional French press is all that's needed for those who don't want to spend the money on a special cold brew maker. To make cold brew, you need only add grounds and water to a French press, chill it in the fridge overnight, and then plunge the filter. This Bodum model is a great option if you prefer the feel of a French press and have a tight budget of less than $25.

The unique feature of this model over a standard French press is the inclusion of a second, flat lid. therefore, the French press filter's bulbous top won't be protruding, a feature that is especially useful if you don't have a lot of room in your refrigerator.

Pros

• Superb for steaming mugs of java.
• Compact enough to be easily stashed away in the refrigerator
• Inexpensive

Cons:

Size: 7 25 x 7 25 x 12 The dimensions are 5" in height, with an immersion brewing method and a capacity of 1. 1 liters

You can't make more cold brew in a pitcher brewing system while the pitcher is in use, as any coffee expert will tell you. The Toddy Cold Brew system was created for this very purpose. Here's a time-honored solution: brew your coffee and water separately in a plastic carafe, then strain it through a fine mesh strainer into a glass pitcher. There will be no waiting time between batches; the brewing process will resume as soon as the first one is complete. When compared to our top picks, the Toddy Cold Brew system does require a bit more of your time, and some reviewers have noted that its setup isn't particularly intuitive. Once you've mastered the machine, however, you'll have everything you need to make gallons upon gallons of delicious cold brew.

Pros:

• Superior carrying capacity to the rest of the models we considered
• Ideal for large-scale production
• Producing results that fit your needs

Cons:

• It can be a hassle to pour the coffee into the designated carafe.
• Enhanced communication is essential.

The Bruer Cold Brew Maker is the equipment of choice for those who are serious about their cold brew and will stop at nothing to get the best possible cup. It works more like a traditional hot coffee drip machine than a traditional cold brew maker, which typically involves submerging coffee grounds in cold water before filtering them out. The time it takes to make cold brew is cut down to four hours from the standard 12 or 24 hours used by many other brewers. In addition, over-extracting the beans is not a concern. When using an immersion method, it's easy to lose track of time and end up with a much stronger cup of coffee than intended because you forgot to check on the grounds. Using a drip method, you can carefully take only the amount of liquid you need from the soil. In addition, unlike the alternatives we considered, you can regulate the rate at which the water drips.  

Pros:

• The output time is shorter than usual
• The strength of your coffee can be adjusted thanks to the varying drip rates.
• Small in stature

Cons:

Measuring at 7 by 8 by 6 inches Dimensions: 9 inches; Brewing Method: Immersion; Volume: 28 ounces

If you're a fan of cold brew, you've probably noticed that many of the pre-made cartons of the stuff come with convenient spigots that make it easy to pour the beverage straight into your glass. And the KitchenAid Cold Brew Coffee Maker is just like that, only with a larger carafe and a spigot. You can get iced coffee whenever you like without having to unscrew a lid or lug a pitcher from the fridge. Coffee grounds are soaked in cold water and then filtered out, so in that respect, this maker is similar to the others we selected. However, those who swear by this machine praise its ultra-fine filter, saying that it prevents even the tiniest coffee grounds from escaping. A good cold brew does not have sediment at the bottom of the glass.

Pros:

• Conveniently located spigot
• Perfect size for the refrigerator door
• Fine-mesh filter ensures cleaner, creamier brew

Cons:
