Customer Review: “Love this coffee maker it is fast and and compact it doesn’t take up much room and my coffee is ready in no time at all.it is a very high quality machine you can’t hear it brewing the coffee like some other coffeemakers it is easy to clean and so far doesn’t leak.”

Customer Review: “There is nothing better than being able to grind whole coffee beans and then right away make a pot of coffee. I couldn’t believe how much more flavorful my coffee was. This is the type of coffee that people pay big bucks for at the coffee shops and now I can have it wherever I want in my home – I’m saving money and it’s super convenient. The grinder can be adjusted to my liking as well as the strength of my coffee. The settings are pretty much self explanatory – I’ve had no trouble using it. It looks great on my countertop and doesn’t take up a lot of space. This summer my favorite feature has been the keep warm feature as I will enjoy the pot throughout the morning and into the afternoon.”

Customer Review: “This thing is horrible. We bought this looking for a grind brew combo, and while it does that, it is a complete pile of garbage.very confusing set up, and button system, but with time you figure it out.The big problem here is the grinder. it clogs up after 1 use, and most times during a just cleaned out use. The bottom metal trap for the grounds consistently gets stuck forcing the machine to shut down. The grinder simply does not have the power nor the teeth to grind at a consistent level. If I want to use it now, after about two months of owning it, I have to break everything down, clean everything out, put it all back together and grind half; then repeat the process. And that’s just for 4 cups of coffee.I am not sure what else is out there, but I would rather just go back to drip, or go to a coffee house every morning that deal with this garbage thing.DO NOT BUY THIS, IT IS A WASTE OF MONEY!”

Customer Review: “I don’t write a lot of reviews, but I felt like this product deserved one. This is an excellent cold brew maker. It is very easy to use and has a great 1,200 mL capacity. The plastic construction is more versatile (less fragile) than other brewers made from glass. The filtration system eliminates the sludge that other brew systems leave. The packaging is very thoughtful – a scoop and sponge are included. The scoop is easily overlooked, but it is the perfect size to clean the used grounds out of the filter. The sponge is an unexpectedly useful form factor to help with cleaning. Hopefully the sponges can be ordered separately, since sponges don’t last forever.Some minor downsides:Cleaning is moderately easy, but the only component that is recommended for the dishwasher is the pitcher (which is also easiest to clean by hand). All of the other elements are recommended for hand washing, which doesn’t take long.The way the filter is configured, the pitcher will work most effectively if stored (at least for part of the brew cycle) on its side. However, there is a vent in the lid that is prone to leaking when the pitcher is stored on its side. Brewing upright can lead to the top grounds not getting exposed to water.Unfortunately, one of the pieces broke during routine use after a couple of months: the pitcher lid is attached with a couple of hinges that snap the lid into place on the pitcher. One of the hinge attachments broke. I contacted customer service and a replacement pitcher arrived four days later. I’d recommend being careful with these hinge attachments as they seem prone to break. At the same time, the customer service is very responsive and suggests that they take support of their products seriously.”

Customer Review: “I’ve tried making cold brew a couple different ways, most recently with Ball jars and a metal filter. This Maestri brewer does a better job than other methods I’ve tried. No coffee ground sludge in the bottom, easy to clean grounds out of the filter, and easy to pour liquid out of the pitcher without removing the filter / grounds. The brew is pretty strong and tastes great. I have found that sometimes air gets trapped in the pitcher when I’m filling it, and that can effect the brewing slightly. When this happens, the coffee grounds don’t seem to get fully saturated right away, so the brewing time takes longer. 24 hours of brew time seems to be the sweet spot for my taste preference, which is strong.”

Customer Review: “I am beyond impressed with this 64 oz Mason Jar Cold Brew Coffee Maker! From the moment I opened it, I could tell the materials were high quality. The glass feels thick and durable, not flimsy at all, and the components fit together securely without leaking or feeling loose. It has that sturdy, well-made construction that instantly gives you confidence it’s going to last.Making cold brew with it was incredibly easy. Just add your grounds, pour in water (into the filter and over the grounds) let it steep, and you’re done. The filter does a fantastic job, smooth coffee, minimal gritty residue, and a clean, rich flavor every time.Cleaning is just as simple, which is a huge win for me. Everything rinses out easily, and the wide mouth makes it super convenient to wash thoroughly. No awkward scrubbing or trapped grounds. I may have thrown mine in the dishwasher!The 64 oz size is perfect for prepping multiple servings at once, which saves time during busy weeks. If you’re on the fence, don’t be, this is a high-quality, user-friendly cold brew maker that delivers exactly what it promises! Highly recommend! ☕️”

Customer Review: “5/12/25: UPDATE: The pot works fine. One thing drive me to using bad words. I said this before, but it is an irritant. They attached the handle to the lid. Plastic lids are hard enough to use on glass jar. Having a handle in the way so that you have to remove you hand with each turn is frustrating. Fir someone new to what cold coffee brew represents, this is a good starter pot, or I frequently used pot.The instruction page presented a problem. Simple answer: go online and get detailed instructions on just how to make cold coffee. Now, the simple instructions manuel is a fine reminder.Packaging handled the trip thru shipping very well. It is glass. It was double packed.There were many choices of cold brewing containers. Considering the cleaning process I go thru with my automatic tea pot, I opted for simple. Simple is very easy to clean with no over-engineered top to take apart to clean. Small enough for refrigerator or counter.The gaskets didn’t look sturdy to me, but after use and washing, I think they will be just fine. It’s hard for the plastic lid to screw on and off because of the handle, but I succeed. I use a standard tube sponge to clean the filter. Works better.”

Customer Review: “I bought this coffee maker to use at work. It is a good size make enough coffee for 1-2 people. I like a large mug and the pot will fill it up twice. Sometimes I use basket filters and ground coffee. Sometimes I buy pre-measured pouches that make this super simple and mess free. I got tired of paying like 75 cents a cup with my old pod system and also didn’t like the environmental impact. This is easy enough to use and wipe clean after use. The carafe opens wide to clean. The price was great when I bought it and I saw it is on sale now. This would be a nice pot for students in dorms, etc. It is a good office size. Simple, one-touch operation and keeps the pot warm.”

Customer Review: “This 5-cup coffee maker has been a game changer for my morning routine! The compact design fits perfectly on my cramped kitchen counter, and it’s ideal for small apartments or office spaces. Brewing is a breeze with the one-touch operation — just press the button and you’re good to go. I love the pause & serve feature, which lets me pour a cup mid-brew without any spills.The warming plate keeps my coffee hot long enough for those slow mornings, and the easy-view water window ensures I never overfill. Cleaning is hassle-free with the removable filter basket that rinses easily or goes right in the dishwasher. Overall, this little coffee maker does everything I need with minimal fuss — highly recommended for anyone looking for a simple, space-saving solution!”
