The Qhh 64 oz system is a practical assembly that uses a heavy-duty soda-lime glass mason jar. This choice of material offers better impact resistance during refrigerator storage than thinner glass carafes. The system is designed with a 160-micron dual-mesh filter, which is sized to trap ultra-fine sediment, helping to produce a clearer beverage without the need for secondary paper filters.
The lid features a reinforced handle made of a fiberglass-polypropylene blend, which is rated to handle the 4-pound weight of a full jar. While the lid is designed to be leak-proof under normal conditions, the pour-spout hinge is intended for gravity pouring. It is most effective when the lid is hand-tightened until resistance is felt, providing a reliable seal for the 12 to 24-hour steeping process.
Specifications indicate the jar stands roughly 9 inches tall, making it a good fit for most standard refrigerator shelves. If you require a system that can also handle boiling water for "flash-chilling," the Takeya Flash Chill might be a suitable alternative. To keep your fridge organized with these large pitchers, consider using clear fridge organizer bins to group your brewing supplies together.
