BTaT Cold Brew Coffee Maker with 1 Gallon Mason Jar Drink Dispenser

Mo: It is a very nice brewer but the lid leaks. I did message the manufacturer but they're response was that the lid needs to be that way so that it is easier to pour the coffee out of the jar. I feel that that could've been done better like a spout in top of the lid so that it could breathe.

Tristan B.: I bought my first BTaT brewer in December 2018. When I first got it, I had an issue with the spigot leaking. I contacted the seller and they happily sent me a replacement spigot and I haven't had issues since. I recently bought another brewer so that I could cold brew green tea as well. I have had two BTaT brewers in my refrigerator since. Yesterday, I had another issue with a broken spigot. BTaT responded quickly and offered to either replace the spigot or give me a partial refund so that I could upgrade to a metal spigot on my own, and even provided a link to a nice stainless steel spigot on amazon. I ordered two replacement spigots and expect to use my BTaT brewers constantly for the forseeable future.

Other than the issues mentioned with the included plastic spigot, I have had no issues with the product. It is well made, easy to clean, and looks nicer than most other cold brew systems in my opinion. I would ordinarily reduce my rating by 1 star for the issues with the plastic spigot. However, I think the customer service provided by BTaT more than makes up for the issue.

ToddTodd: It’s high-quality, it doesn’t leak, it’s simple to use, and it makes delicious coffee. One thing to be careful about is grind size. I bought some pre-ground coffee on Amazon and the grind was so fine I had to strain the grounds from the coffee. Next time I will grind the beans myself or make sure the grind is medium.

I wanted to update this about the lid. It rusts and it is not airtight. If it were airtight, coffee wouldn’t come out of the spigot. You can prove this by replacing the lid with their stretchy silicone lid. Coffee will start pouring out and then stop until you allow air in.

I reduced my rating from 5 stars to 4 stars only because the lid rust. They should include a silicone gasket to prevent this and to make the seal airtight.

Chilly: Our family has become cold brew coffee fans as soon we tried. Has been looking for a quart size brewer until cam across this, and caught it on sale as well as a bonus!

Overall, this is a pretty good product, may not be the prettiest or highest class, but more than enough for its purpose. The lid has developed a little rust after a few uses but seller is quick to respond and sent out replacement. The only reason this does not get a 5star is the plastic spigot that came with it. It also drips a little but I order a stainless steel one for only $10. To be fair, similar products within the price range all comes with plastic spigot anyways. I do wish it comes with stainless Steel spigot and I’m happy to pay the additional cost.

Update: one year later
I have been using it every day, brewing new batch every 3 to 4 days.
I deduced one star from the review initially due to the spigot. I’ve bought two other stainless steel spigot since and they both drip. I now concluded that the dripping is by design of spigot in general, therefore I am upping it back to 5 stars.
For those who leaking from spigot, very likely it wasn’t tight enough.
Before you complaining...

AvaAva: My husband and I are both big coffee drinkers. This is perfect for us because we are grab and go people in the morning. It's a gallon sized jar, about the same size as a gallon of milk (not as wide) with a spigot at the bottom for quick use. The directions come on the outside of the box and also some recipe ideas, which I love! It doesn't take a lot of coffee to make this whole jar and the coffee comes out perfect. It's not watered down coffee at all. I doubled checked and tightened the spigot on the inside to make sure it wouldn't leak, also. It's very simple to use. It makes almost a week of coffee for both of us. We make sure to take out the inside filter of coffee after about 24 hours and have perfect (strong) coffee, or you can leave it for stronger coffee/espresso like coffee, but the coffee is actually ready to drink pretty soon after making it. It also comes with chalk to write whatever you want on the front and back chalkboard. The best part is that it can also be used for tea or drinks for a party and doesn't take up much room in the refrigerator. Super satisfied!
