The simple cold-brew maker that changed my entire morning routine.
, a unicorn of a coffee maker that costs less than $25 , is easy to use, and makes smooth cold brew with the least amount of effort.
If the Takeya came with instructions, I wouldn't have read it because it’s super intuitive to use. You just fill the mesh filter with coarsely ground coffee, secure it to the lid, add water to the pitcher, and then screw on the lid. Give the pitcher a good shake to make sure the grounds are thoroughly steeped, and then pop it into the fridge overnight. It takes less than five minutes, and all of the brewing happens when you’re asleep .
I make a fresh batch most nights for a smooth cold brew the next morning, and if I’m feeling ambitious on the weekends, I’ll get a head start and make two for the week ahead so I can snooze a bit longer. The one-quart version has served me well the last three years and the durable BPA-free plastic pitcher has yet to give out. If and when it does, I’ll probably get the larger two-quart version so I can make even more cold brew.
Instead of stopping by a coffee shop, waiting in a long line behind frustrated customers, and mindlessly ordering a diluted drink, I pour myself a cup of cold brew and just stand on the deck, taking in the morning air and running through my to-do list for the day. It only takes a few minutes , but that’s all the break I need to get focused for the day. The lack of a commute helps, too.
But best of all, I can drink cold brew all year round even if I haven’t gone to the office or seen friends at brunch for almost two years.This post contains products independently chosen by our editors and writers.
