The Takeya 2-Quart Tritan brewer is a versatile choice for making cold brew coffee. Its main body is made from Eastman Tritan™, a BPA-free polymer that is resistant to the oils and stains that can sometimes cloud other plastics. This material is also safe for "hot-bloom" brewing, where a small amount of hot water is used to start the extraction. The double-thread lid and silicone gasket provide a reliable airtight seal, which is necessary if you plan to store the pitcher horizontally in a crowded fridge.
The fine-mesh filter features a twist-lock interface that keeps it stable inside the pitcher during the brewing cycle. For the best results, it is recommended to use a coarse grind; this prevents "fines" from passing through and ensures the lid remains easy to unscrew after the coffee degasses over 24 hours. The 2-quart size provides a generous amount of concentrate that can be diluted as needed.
