The thing worth knowing

Cold brew is a slow, low-temperature extraction, so it uses a coarser grind or more leaf and a longer steep than a hot brew. Keep it refrigerated and follow the maker's guidance on how long it keeps.

What we have not done

We have not independently tested this product. The description above is compiled from the manufacturer’s published specification and from what the category demands, and it is written to tell you who the equipment suits rather than to sell it. Where we have no first-hand experience, we say so rather than inventing a star rating.
