USE + CARE
Cold Brew Coffee Maker
All components are dishwasher safe. We recommend washing all components with soap and warm water before initial use and after every use.
Filter
To remove ground coffee from the filter, turn upside down and tap under running water. For deep cleaning, soak in a 50/50 solution of water and white vinegar, then clean with soap and water.
O-Rings
Check that the o-ring seal is properly placed on the lid and between handle assembly and body to prevent leakage.
COLD BREW
Taste the difference with the Takeya Cold Brew Coffee Maker. The traditional hot brewing process releases undesirable acids and oils, resulting in bitter flavor and acidity that is intolerable to many. With cold brewing, only the naturally delicious coffee flavors are extracted, leaving behind the bitter oils and fatty acids, creating a perfectly balanced, smooth extraction of concentrated coffee. Once brewed, concentrated coffee can be kept fresh in the Takeya Cold Brew Coffee Maker for up to 2 weeks and used for both hot and iced coffees.

COFFEE BREW INSTRUCTIONS
ADD COFFEE
Add 28-32 tablespoons (2 cups approx.) of your favorite medium roast, coarsely ground coffee to the filter, then twist into lid.
BREW
Fill the Takeya pitcher ¾ full, with cold, filtered water. Then lower filter into water.
Seal lid airtight, shake well and store on its side in refrigerator for 12 – 24 hours to cold brew. Occasionally twist open and swirl filter.
Remove filter when brewing is complete. The result will be a brew of concentrated coffee.
