5 Best Takeya Tritan Cold Brew Coffee Makers for 2026 – Expert Quality Guide

Customer Review: “I’ve had and used several times a week for 4.5 years. This is just an outstanding little set up. Easy to use and easy to clean (as long as you don’t let the coffee grinds dry in the filter). Really durable, great buy that makes excellent could brew.”

Customer Review: “So I love tea, but I hate being warm. I’ve had a bunch of loose leaf tea just sitting in my cupboard throughout Summer because I didn’t want to drink something warm when it was already too hot in our house. From the first time I used this it immediately became a ‘why didn’t I buy this sooner?’ kind of thing. Now I always have tea either steeping or ready to drink. I’ve used it with both green and black teas, which have both been fantastic. Going to try a herbal chai tea next. The tea tastes perfect, exactly as it does with a perfectly steeped hot tea, but with cold brewing it somehow doesn’t get bitter when you leave the tea in too long, it stays perfect, so it’s even easier than brewing hot. And I get four large cups out of this, instead of 2 with my kettle. Went with Takeya specifically because I use one of their metal insulated water bottles daily, and love it. Same quality here. I kinda wish it was glass instead of plastic, but at least if I drop this it isn’t going to shatter on my feet. Drawbacks? If I’m being hyper-nitpicky, the way that the filter threads into the lid is kinda tricky. I usually have to try two or three times to get the threads lined up right. Can’t recommend this enough. One of the best purchases I’ve made on Amazon in a long time.”

Customer Review: “I’ve been using this cold brew carafe for a while now, and I’m never looking back! When I got rid of my old coffee maker that had seen better days, I didn’t want to buy another one right away. Instead, I wanted to look at my options. So for a while, I then started buying bottled cold brew from the store. However, the taste wasn’t as good as I’d have liked, and for the price I couldn’t justify buying more than 1 bottle (which meant I ran out of coffee mid-week.) Then my partner suggested I start making my own cold brew, which led me to this product. It was very important to me to find one made out of glass rather than plastic, and this fits the bill. It’s a good, thick, sturdy glass without being too heavy. This is really easy to use, too: fill it up with water, grind your beans, add them to the filter, screw everything on, shake it up, let it sit. I personally let it sit at room temp for 12-24 hours and then I transfer it to the fridge. I drink one large (16 oz) mug a day, and this lasts me around 4 days. I now have delicious, smooth, fresh coffee all week! This is also fairly easy to clean, with the exception of the filter. For the filter, I do find that it’s hard to get the wet grounds out (the stick like no other) so I end up letting it dry out for a day and then scrape them out. You’ll definitely need a bottle brush to properly clean inside the filter when you do dishes. However, that’s a small price to pay! This cold brew maker has already paid for itself over and over. If you like iced coffee, this is even better because it doesn’t water it down! I’d definitely recommend this to anyone.”

Customer Review: “I love this cold brew coffee maker. It’s the perfect size for my fridge. If it was any taller, it won’t fit the fridge shelf. It’s great for making coffee and tea. It’s easy to use. You twist the top to pour the liquid. I’m happy this one was not made out of plastic. It’s durable and made out of glass, except for the lid/handle. I use it every day. It’s very easy to clean and doesn’t not leak.”

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.”
