This rugged and economical setup makes great cold brew coffee -- and you'll never need to buy a disposable filter.
I've tried several systems, but this is the best value so far. The Ball jar is nearly bombproof and very easy to clean. Lids are standard, so you can pick up extras (and replacement jars) pretty much anywhere. The screen filter is stainless steel, also easy to clean, and should last for years. The only thing that's likely to wear is the silicone seal. Fortunately, they're inexpensive, so you can stock up.
I'm used to weighing my coffee, but you can be much more casual with this brewer. In my case, I started with a good-quality but inexpensive dark roast, Seattle's Best #4. The pre-ground stuff works fine, though you'll want to grind it more coarsely if you work with whole beans. The instructions aren't kidding when they say leave at least an inch of freeboard as you fill the filter. If you don't, it will be hard to pour the water through your grounds. I actually leave a bit more space than that (maybe 3 cm).
Just spoon your coffee in loosely. Don't tamp it down and don't stir. Once you've poured water through the grounds to about the 1.5-liter mark, seal things up and give it a good shake. This is what fully wets the grounds. I usually reopen the jar and pour a bit more water on the seal and top of the screen to remove any grounds or sediment before setting the jar aside to steep.
For me, 24 hours at room temperature yields a rich brew. You can leave it longer for stronger coffee, but you will run the risk of natural fermentation the longer it sits. This can be offset by brewing in the fridge. If you go this route, you'll also double the brewing times.
And who has time for that? I'm ready to get at my cold brew as soon as possible, even running two brew jars at a time. With the coffee and method described above, I use the concentrate full strength for cold coffee with a splash of milk over ice, and cut with water by about a third for hot. Your mileage may vary.
There's no one right way to make coffee. I still use my Aeropress for metro and lighter roasts, and pour-over fans will probably feel the same. Those methods give you more control for bringing out the best in top-quality beans. But my French press is feeling a bit lonely since I started using this system. It's easy to get hooked on the smooth, sweet-tasting finish of cold brew, and this is the most economical and convenient brewer I've discovered to date.

Loveeeeee this!!!!
I LOVE cold brew coffee and this cold brew coffee jar makes it easy to make an entire week’s cold brew coffee! It holds tons of cold brewed coffee and is simple. You simply put the metal coffee filter in the large mason jar and add COARSE coffee (normal grind will penetrate the metal filter requiring you to pour the brewed coffee through cheesecloth to catch floating coffee grounds. Coarse coffee does not have to be re-filtered.Clean up is not fun, but it’s not terrible. The coffee grounds will be wet so they stick to the wire filter, but just tap it out and wash it in between brewing. This is my only reason for removing a star.I put 12 scoops of coffee in the filter at night and pour water over the filter to the top. Refrigerate over night and Voilà - vest brewed cold coffee! I add a little French vanilla cream and it’s better than any you can buy in the store!Overall, I love this cold brew system and would recommend it. See my pictures for more details.
