Constructed from Eastman Tritan copolyester, this 40oz brewer is built for impact resistance and clarity. Unlike traditional glass, this material is designed to be "drop-safe," making it a practical choice for busy households with children. A key feature is the 350-mesh ultra-fine laser-cut filter, which is significantly denser than standard filters to help prevent sediment from reaching the final brew.
The compact design is specifically engineered to fit into narrow refrigerator door compartments, saving valuable shelf space. Specifications indicate a 100% leak-proof claim, which relies on the proper seating of the silicone gasket; ensuring the lid is not "spongy" when closed confirms a secure seal. Features include a dual-utility lid that allows the pitcher to be stored horizontally if the door shelves are full.
Practical reality shows that the very fine mesh requires a quick rinse immediately after use to prevent oils from clogging the filter. While the 40oz volume is the total capacity, the net yield of liquid will be closer to 32oz once the tea leaves or coffee grounds are removed. This unit is a high-precision tool for those who prefer a sediment-free, chilled beverage.
If you are looking for a larger capacity for family gatherings, the West Bend 2.75-Quart brewer offers more volume per batch. Explore our range of beverage bottle organizers to keep your fridge neatly arranged.
