Bodum Bean Cold Brew Coffee Maker 12 Cup / 51oz - White

A: We recommend using 1 scoop of grounds for every 4 ounces of water you pour. Cold-brew usually demands more grounds than when made hot due to the extended brewing process. Enjoy!

A: I use 4 scoops or healing tablespoons of coffee, stir and refrigerate for next day.

A: I use about a cup of coffee grounds for every 3-4 cups of water.

A: Yes you can, although I get better results using coarse grounds.

A: I have read in several places that coarse grounds are best for cold brew because you retain more of the oil that way

A: Yes, it's recommended that you use medium or coarse grounds.

A: Thank you for your question! Yes, you can use tea bags to make iced tea in the BEAN Cold Brew Maker. Simply add your desired number of tea bags, drape the strings over the lip of the carafe, and place the fridge lid on top to hold them in place. Once your tea is ready, remove the bags and switch to the press lid; the filter isn’t needed for tea bags, but make sure to depress the plunger for easier storage, and use the thumb trigger to pour your freshly brewed iced tea. Simple and convenient!

A: Thank you for your question! The BEAN Cold Brew Coffee Maker is specifically designed for cold brew preparation - we do not recommend using it in the microwave. Instead, consider transferring your beverage to a microwave-safe container if you’d like to heat it. Hope this helps!

A: Yes, the BEAN Cold Brew Maker does come with an instruction booklet that provides a basic guide on how much ground coffee and water to use. For our French presses, we generally recommend one Bodum scoop (included) per “cup” of coffee (4oz) you are making. For cold brew, we suggest doubling that amount. Keep in mind that factors like the type of beans, roast, grind size, and steeping time can all impact the flavor, so we encourage you to experiment with different ratios and techniques to find your ideal brew. Enjoy!

A: This Cold Brew Coffee Maker features a French Press filter that is used at the end of the brewing process. Simply switch the refrigerator storage lid for the French Press lid and slowly press down using the weight of your hand. The filter will push all of the grounds to the bottom of the coffee maker and you will be able to pour a cup of smooth homemade Cold Brew.

A: For hot coffee it's recommended to use 1 rounded tablespoon or 1 Bodum Scoop for every 4oz of water. For cold brew it's recommended to double this and use 2 rounded tablespoons or 2 Bodum Scoops for every 4oz of water.

A: The Cold Brew Coffee Maker is a french press that is optimized for making cold brew. A separate lid from the plunger allows it to fit easily into a refrigerator overnight and the spout on the plunger lid means that once the grounds are pressed down it is easy to pour.
