Q: How much tablespoons of coffee is recommended if we fill it to the top with water.. at first i thought it was 12 cups so I tried adding like 18 tablespoons but i feel like that might be too much?? Help and thanks!
submitted by Wendy - 5 years ago
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!
submitted byBodum - 5 years ago
Brand expert
A: I use 4 scoops or healing tablespoons of coffee, stir and refrigerate for next day.
submitted byD AZ - 5 years ago
A: I use about a cup of coffee grounds for every 3-4 cups of water.

Q: Can you use regular coffee grounds
submitted by Keades - 7 years ago
A: Yes you can, although I get better results using coarse grounds.
submitted bywendylattes - 6 years ago
A: I have read in several places that coarse grounds are best for cold brew because you retain more of the oil that way
submitted byjace - 7 years ago
A: Yes, it's recommended that you use medium or coarse grounds.

Q: Is container heat proof
submitted by Ny400 - 8 months ago
A: Thank you for your question! The BEAN Cold Brew Coffee Maker is designed to be used with cold water to make cold brew coffee, but the BPA-free plastic carafe can also be used to brew hot coffee; however, we do not consider the BEAN heat-proof, so if you do brew with hot water, please use caution to avoid burns or scalding and only handle the carafe by the handle. Please also note that the BEAN is not insulated, if that is what you mean by “heat proof.” We hope this helps, and if you have any further questions, feel free to reach out to our customer service team at support@bodum.com.

Q: Can you make iced tea with tea bags in this
submitted by J9 - 11 months ago
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!

Q: Is it Microwave safe
submitted by Doesnt look similar color - 1 year ago
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!

Q: Does this product come with an instruction booklet for the amount of coffee grounds and water to use?
submitted by gvilla75 - 2 years ago
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!

Q: do the grounds float around? why is there no net? like a filter
submitted by mdfaiafk - 2 years ago
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.

Q: How many scoops of coffee should i put in with the water all the way to the top?
submitted by Maeva - 4 years ago
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.
submitted byBodum - 4 years ago
Brand expert
Q: what is the difference between making cold brew in this and making cold brew in a french press?
submitted by hcarpen4 - 4 years ago
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.
The Bodum Bean Cold Brew Coffee Maker is a popular choice among guests for its ease of use and ability to produce delicious coffee. Many appreciate its affordability and the convenience of making cold brew at home. However, some guests have experienced issues with durability and the effectiveness of the strainer. Overall, it offers a great solution for coffee lovers looking to save money and enjoy fresh brews without the hassle of complicated machines.

Cracking
The plastic cracked after the first few brews from the hot water. It caused a lot of leaking in our fridge and is really disappointing. Also took the top press section apart to clean and it never went back together correctly.
1 reply from Bodum team - 1 year ago
We’re sorry to hear that you’re having a less than ideal experience with your BEAN Cold Brew Coffee Maker. We would like to know more about how the BEAN’s carafe cracked - please feel free to reach out to our customer service team at support@bodum.com with more details. It’s important to note that, even though the BPA-free plastic is designed to be durable and long-lasting, it is still susceptible to extreme temperature changes, such as using the BEAN with hot water and then placing it in the refrigerator. We’d also like to better understand the difficulties you experienced reassembling the filter lid. To reassemble, ensure the mesh filter is placed between the cross plate and the spiral plate, and then screw the plunger post into the housing in the cross plate. Thank you for your review!

Phenomenal coffee results
I have been using Nespresso for years. The cost was stupid and the coffee choices are severely limited. I did a lot of research and decided to give this a try. Low risk based on price. I used Counter Culture Big Trouble coffee (they teach how to brew coffee using different techniques) The cup of coffee was perfection. I loved being able to pour as much as I wanted without having to go through the skimpy individual pod brewing process. It has been a couple weeks now - the consitency, ease and cost savings makes me happy. The nespresso is packed away in storage until I sell or donate it.

Not dishwasher safe! Lid warped after washing on dishwasher top rack.
The plunger part warped in the top rack of our dishwasher and now we can't get the lid to fit, and it leaks when we pour. It's supposed to be dishwasher safe.
1 reply from Bodum team - 2 years ago
Thank you for your feedback on the BEAN Cold Brew Maker! We're sorry to hear about the issue with the lid. The BEAN is designed to be dishwasher safe, and we'd love to learn more about your experience with the warping so we can investigate further. Please also note that the BEAN features a locking-lid, which requires aligning the tabs with the grooves in the carafe and turning to seal properly. If you’d like more assistance, feel free to contact our customer service team at support@bodum.com.

Good for hot brew
This was not a good cold brew option for me. The coffee was so watered down it was a waste of coffee. I started using it for hot brew, but that cracked the plastic after a years use. It was great for hot brew as it's a large pot. I wish bodum would make affordable glass options over 8 cups. The plunger has to be pushed down twice or you will get grounds, cold or hot, doesn't matter.

False description, vague instructions
This cold brew coffee pot is described as 12 cup capacity, and to the brim - yes, it does handle 12 cups of liquid. However this is a french-press style jug and if you want to fit that plunger in there is no way you can fill to the brim. You’ll most likely fill to 10 and a half, but that isn’t accounting for the 3 cups of coarse coffee you’ll need in order to actually brew. In the end you’ll be left with about 7 to 8 cups of actual liquid cold brew, of which will not be concentrated so you can’t even cut with water to extend. The brew process takes 12-24 hours according to the instructions(15 hours by Starbucks standards) so that’s a long time to wait for 3/4 a pitcher of standard cold brew. Also speaking of instructions, you’re without a paddle on this one. It says to add double the amount you would normally use in a regular coffee machine???? They couldn’t even give us a scoop amount or fill line. The scoop is just a tablespoon which can be smaller than other coffee scoops according to what you might use. Overall it’s very frustrating what’s hidden from you, it’s an 8 cup coffee press in the end. If you can just buy cold brew in the large 5 dollar bottles I would just do that. It uses a lot of coffee, like half a pound per brew. I unfortunately can’t buy the bottles because I need decaf for heart issues and nowhere I go offers decaf cold brew. It’s delicious if you get it right tho! Good luck.

Worth. Every. Single. Penny. Since decaf cold brew isn’t sold, I have to make my own. It works out great. I will get a few pieces of coffee in the brew, but it’s not overwhelming.

Cute, brews well, cleaning is a pain!
This is an attractive unit, it brews coffee well, and has a great price. You definitely need a coarse grind, any smaller and you will have particulates in your coffee. There is a bead on the end of the rod that protrudes about 3/8" which keeps you from pressing all the coffee out. All the grounds are in the bottom of the container and you have to dig them out with a spatula before cleaning. If I had to do it again, I would pick a brewer with a suspension chamber that can be removed from the unit for cleaning, something like the Primula Pace Brewer.
