@PlacidPenguin I don’t drink coffee either. Don’t feel bad. My mom, however does…as does everyone else in my family, I’m beginning to wonder if maybe I’m adopted! lol
@nolrak@PlacidPenguin Bah, you might be a 'bot. Bots are interconnected to the Cloud, and therefore a collective, and therefore never just “one”.
Prove you’re not a bot, by pressing the “I’m not a bot” button at the end of this message (only visible to REAL humans, not 'bots that are programmed to think they are humans).
@decoratedwarvet@PlacidPenguin Perhaps the terms are generally the same, but it is where they differ that is of import: specifically, everybody drinks coffee, but everyone doesn’t.
I bought this the last time, too. Big disappointment. I suppose it works more or less as advertised, but I don’t like the bland cold coffee it makes. I guess I just like a little acid in my brew.
I gave the bottle to my son - I don’t know if he still uses it or put it on the shelf once the novelty wore off. I don’t use the carafe at all because it takes a buttload of coffee grounds to make a batch.
Love my cold brew, just remember that the coffee you “brew” with this is gonna be extra strong, so I dilute it 50/50 with water. If you’re sensitive to caffeine I’d dilute it even further because this stuff is extra caffeinated.
All that being said, I use mine every day. I don’t have this exact model, I have just a purpose made pitcher that I picked up for about $15 from Amazon.
Never not going back to regular iced coffee ever again!
@MrMikenIkes You ain’t kiddin’. The stuff packs a wallop. I keep forgetting that, in my early morning haze, and portion the same as normal coffee. By the time I get to work, I’m a struck piano wire.
@MrMikenIkes What kind of coffee do you put in it? Grocery store? Coffee shop? Do you grind your own beans or buy them ground? I’m curious about this whole cold brew process.
@Dizavid I use a beer growler and free coffee from work. But I bought this first. Funny enough this works better as a filter because its so fine mesh. Worth my money.
@Dizavid I have a similar pitcher and it makes for a much much easier cleanup and a way to dispense the coffee.
I tried making cold brew before with just tossing the grounds in a container and filtering it when I wanted to drink it and it was a pain in the behind.
What wasn’t too bad was when I bought the Dunkin donuts cold brew packs that they sell in the grocery store. That’s basically just 2 big seamless coffee filters loaded up with coffee that you toss in a normal pitcher.
Now, when I want my coffee I pour it right from the pitcher (I leave the grounds in there until it’s time to make a new pitcher) into a cup, top it off with water and I’m out the door. Makes a 5 minutes process a 5 second process.
I bought this product on July 17th,2017 for the same price as offered tonight the product is well crafted and looks great the drinking vessel alone I would pay 25 bucks for its extremely functional and i use it a lot this is truly a great deal and what i call the “DEEP DISCOUNT”,buy with confidence this is a really nice product i’m sure you will agree .
@carl669 I think you just might need to use less water because I think that you need to use more beans for cold brew than you normally would for French Press.
@carl669 A French press will do as good a job, and cleans up more easily than these Primula devices. (I wish I had thought of that before I purchased this item ‘the last time around’).
These Primula items are reasonably well made, but I found that cleaning the screens of all of the spent grounds from a prior batch of brew can waste time & a lot of wash water.
After a few weeks of using the Primula regularly, it dawned on me that I could ALSO use my old french press in more or less the same way, so that I could have more cold brew on hand. (The carafe didn’t make enough in each batch to meet “local consumption requirements” during & between the 18 to 24 hour ‘cold brewing’ periods!).
After a few more weeks of using both devices, I retired the Primula, and now I use just the french press.
A significant difference exists in that you can fairly easily remove the ‘basket’ of spent grounds from the top of the Primula carafe and put the lid back on and place it, with the coffee back in the fridge.
However, with the grounds being stuck under the coffee in the french press, you have to decant it from the press into a storage bottle for the fridge.
(Regardless of which device you use, you do not want to leave the coffee in with the grounds for much more than 24 hours…)
It is actually an advantage that you don’t store the batch of coffee in the french press. This lets you start another batch ‘cold-brewing’ as soon as you decant the previous one, and give the press a quick rinse & fill it with fresh grounds and water.
Same. My french press made awesome cold brew. Then I bought this last time because it seemed like a more convenient option. Its not really, for all the reasons described, and also I find that having the grounds constrained in the basket really limits the infusion compared to loose in the french press carafe. Havent uswd it again since.
@carl669@ELJAY@hachover@MrMikenIkes I mean, certainly try your french press because you already have it. But, having purchased just the pitcher from another of our sites, I will share my experience. I also own a Bodum french press, and I find that cleanup to be much harder. With the Primula, you just pull the filter basket out, screw off the bottom, and shake out what you can into the compost (or wherever) then rinse it in the sink. Since the grounds are all still wet, it rinses off very easily. That may be enough, but I also wash the filter in soapy water later.
As for water contact, I stir the grounds pretty thoroughly when I fill the pitcher and once about mid-brew.
For the ratio, I use 100g of ground coffee for one full pitcher.
All that said, I’ve never used the french press for cold brew, so I can’t comment about taste differences, I just don’t imagine cleaning the FP is different for hot vs. cold brew.
@carl669@ELJAY I agree with everything that ELJAY is saying, but I do like the little carafe for other thing. Using it for big thiings of tea or maybe a packet of crystal light.
15 bucks for just the carafe at Target with free pickup or free shipping over $35 if you don’t want the silly bottle. Or you don’t think the bottle is worth $10(if you don’t have VMP). Price seems meh
I bought this set and liked it so much I bought a backup from Morningsave. Its nice that I don’t gave to make coffee every day to drink coffee every day. I guess I could use the small one for days when I have less than a cup left but too much to throw away but I alternate the bigger ones instead.
Just drank my morning coffee out of the travel bottle I got last time this was here. Definitely recommend. Though, you could always save $20 and just pour grounds and water in a water bottle and then filter it after steeping. But that’s dumb, right?
Bought this last time. Small bottle got donated after one use. Big carafe is now used with a cone filter to make hot coffee. Any old French press can make"cold brew" just as easily, if not better.
I bought this last time around. Works very well. Only trick is remembering to get it going ahead of when you want it, then if you remove the grounds it keeps for several days. Big hit with brunch visitors especially. I don’t drink enough cold coffee to need a 2nd set in rotation but highly recommend if you’ve been thinking about trying it.
Eh, I prefer using my french press to make cold brew.
Granted the membrane in the bigger one is probably stronger than I think it is, it’s a pain to clean. And the smaller one, though neat, still let grounds through.
@theliman2000 leaks during brewing or after when you remove the filter and re-cap?
you definitely have to rinse/clean the bottom cover gasket when you take the filter out, as it invariably has grounds on it that will screw up the seal.
@boygenius1991@theliman2000 I will not say “RTFM”, but it was mentioned in the instructions.
of course, they are printed so small they require an electron microscope to read!
Bought this previously on meh. The pitcher has a pretty significant design flaw, the mesh area where the grounds are stored isn’t large enough or at least tall enough.
The issue being if I want to use 2-3 cups of water’s worth of cold brew concentrate, the water will not come up to the level to fully submerge the grounds.
And if I use 4-5 cups worth of water, the mesh area can’t actually hold the necessary amount of coffee grounds.
There’s a sweet spot somewhere between 3-4 cups of water to .75-1 cups of grounds that seems to work okay, but if they had just made the mesh reach down further into pitcher, and maybe increased it’s diameter a bit, there’d be no issues.
The bottle on the other hand is absolutely awesome.
I definitely have a problem with the travel bottle leaking – I’m pretty sure the grounds are part of the issue but it’s not easy to keep em clean.
I also do not in any way have a snug fit on the lid of the larger pitcher. The gasket there – I’m just not sure how it’s supposed to fit on but no way does it fit snugly that I can find.
@Ignorant It may also be of note that I simply am unable to get that filter to stay straight in the middle of the bottle; it almost always skews to one side or the other of the bottle.
@blabounty it shouldn’t be an issue with the grounds if it’s during the brew process, unless you are filling the filter basket while it’s already in the bottle. I fill my filter, then set it in the bottle and screw the lid on. My filter will sometimes go a bit sideways too but I just take the lid off and straighten it out.
So ultimately I do like the purchase, but much as has already been said about easier, more reasonable methods, I even just dumped grounds into a large Mason Jar, shook it up a couple of times a day for two days, then strained it through a fine strainer into another Mason Jar and found the outcome to be the same with significantly less “hassle.”

Nope. I still don’t drink coffee.

Therefore, not everyone is doing it.

@PlacidPenguin
Everyone who matters drinks the stuff.
By self-admission, you don’t.
Therefore, you don’t matter.
The original statement is still true.
Q.E.D.
@mike808
According to how you set up your logic, you’re grouping everyone who matters into a category of coffee drinkers.
Just because I don’t drink coffee, doesn’t mean I don’t matter.
Because I don’t necessarily not matter, I can’t be grouped into the category of people who don’t coffee.
@nolrak @PlacidPenguin No one said anything about ‘Anyone’! They said ANYBODY!! I’m just saying,…
@mike808 @PlacidPenguin Again they said ANYBODY!! Not ‘Anyone’, Chezzz!!
@decoratedwarvet
Nobody said anything about “anybody” or “anyone” until you brought the terms up.
It was " everybody" vs " everyone’". Any by definition, the two terms are generally interchangeable.
@PlacidPenguin I don’t drink coffee either. Don’t feel bad. My mom, however does…as does everyone else in my family, I’m beginning to wonder if maybe I’m adopted! lol

@MrMikenIkes What kind of coffee do you put in it? Grocery store? Coffee shop? Do you grind your own beans or buy them ground? I’m curious about this whole cold brew process.
@Pamela I buy the big ass 3lb cans of preground Colombian coffee from Costco. It’s like 8 bucks for a ton of coffee and it comes out great every time.
In the past I’ve purchased whole beans and ground them myself but that was time consuming because you’re using a lot of coffee to make this.
I wouldn’t use Folgers and even the Dunkies brand beans are just…meh, but the Costco coffee is some good stuff.
But yeah, just whatever you normally drink is fine, it gives you basically the same flavor just stronger and without the acidity.
That’s actually why I started using cold brew coffee, because I get bad acid reflux with most coffee, but not anymore!
I don’t use this exact model (mine was $15 from Amazon for just the pitcher) but they all work the same way and should all produce a similar coffee.
@MrMikenIkes @Pamela You know what happened to the curious cat don’t you?¿
@MrMikenIkes Thanks very much for the tips! Very helpful.
Why should I spent $20 on this instead of just throwing grounds and water into a big QT cup and then filtering it later? Come on.

@Ignorant Doesn’t work for me. It seems to always leak a little bit and then stop.
/giphy daunting-agonizing-silver
@blabounty strange. Is this when brewing with the filter in, or only after you remove the filter?
@Ignorant Good question.
This is when brewing with the filter in. I generally pour it out and have it in one go afterward.
@Ignorant It may also be of note that I simply am unable to get that filter to stay straight in the middle of the bottle; it almost always skews to one side or the other of the bottle.
@blabounty it shouldn’t be an issue with the grounds if it’s during the brew process, unless you are filling the filter basket while it’s already in the bottle. I fill my filter, then set it in the bottle and screw the lid on. My filter will sometimes go a bit sideways too but I just take the lid off and straighten it out.
