Product Description

Love homemade cold brew but don’t have a lot of room? The OXO Brew Compact Cold Brew Coffee Maker is your small space solution. Create up to a week’s worth of smooth coffee concentrate in the 24-ounce brewing container. It’s easy to use, add ground beans and pour water into the perforated rainmaker™ top to evenly distribute water over the grounds. Brew 12 – 24 hours on your counter or fridge, then place the brewer onto the borosilicate glass carafe to drain. The ultra-fine, reusable stainless steel mesh filter prevents grounds from escaping into your brew. The carafe’s cork stopper has a silicone seal that helps keep the concentrate fresh. When you’re done, the brewer and carafe nest for neat storage.

Consistent, Easy, and Strong: The OXO Compact Cold Brew Maker Delivers
I’ve been using the OXO Compact Cold Brew Maker, and it’s quickly become a favorite. I’ve tested brew times from 18 to 24 hours, and 18 hours hits the mark for the best flavor. I also played around with coffee-to-water ratios and prefer using more water for smoother extraction. Initially, I struggled with full extraction, but trial and error helped me nail it. Now, I just pour everything in and make sure the grounds are properly saturated. I’ve been using Starbucks Veranda Blend Blonde Roast, and the 12-ounce pre-ground bag costs around $8. Recently, I scored a 28-ounce bag at Target for $17, and I’m looking at Costco for a light to medium roast, but so far, it’s mostly dark roasts there. The brewer has a solid capacity. One time, I let it sit too long and it overfilled the carafe, but I got almost 32 ounces of concentrate—enough to fill my Chameleon Cold Brew bottle. The thing is, the Chameleon concentrate (which is supposed to be diluted) doesn’t hit hard enough for me. It’s not great quality, and I’m not surprised it’s from Texas—what do they know about strong coffee anyway? Overall, the OXO brewer has been a great addition to my setup. It’s simple to use, delivers consistently strong cold brew, and makes it easy to experiment with different brewing times and coffee ratios. Highly recommend if you’re looking to step up your cold brew game.

    I won't write much.

    The cold brew made from my home roast coffee (roasted in a nostalgia air popcorn popper), taste exactly like what I was looking for. Now I can enjoy a iced cold brew at home, or I can make some of the sweeter drinks that do best with the strong brew this produces.

    Easy to assemble. Easy to clean. No mess. No potential mold growth spots I have found. No leaks so far. so fast and easy to brew, and I love that I can simply place the brew container on top of the carafe and walk away while it slowly drips, as it's supposed to for a cold brew.

    Good job OXO, as always.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Quality brew, easy clean, stellar price
    Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2023
    Style: Cold Brew MakerVerified Purchase
    I am a professional barista. I wanted something close in quality to the Toddy system I'm used to at work, but designed for smaller batches. This fits the bill exactly. It makes an excellent gift for both cold brew novices (I got mom one for Mother's Day and she loves it) and those of us who have (or have used) nearly every sort of coffee brewer imaginable.

    The standard recipe OXO provides (which the marks on my carafe and brewer are accurately set to) uses 6oz/170g of coffee, and results in about 16oz of concentrate, or around a week's worth for one person. Other brewers I've used are generally designed to make a lot more coffee concentrate, and I never get through all of it before it's off peak. The small brew size is also great for making small test batches or trying new coffees.

    I've brewed two batches so far, one with only the included metal filter and one using the additional paper filters OXO sells (the paper filters fit the larger brewer as well as this one the same). Both batches were very clean, with no 'chewy' or gritty feeling from fines. I don't believe the paper filter is necessary for a good cup, but the batch I brewed with a paper filter was slightly superior. Aeropress filters are about the same size and would probably work in a pinch.

    I have had no issues with leaking, but always leave the brewer in a bowl just in case. The auto-dispenser feature works well and is so, so convenient. Cleaning this is much easier than the basket-style infusers--I like that I can fill it with water, swirl the used grounds, and pour it out in the garden without dripping through the house or having grounds go down the drain trying to get them all out. The whole unit comes apart easily for washing.

    All parts (including carafe) fit inside one another if you are not using the system; this was important to me as I don't drink iced coffee in the cold months and I don't have a lot of storage space to dedicate to something I only use for part of the year. The small overall footprint also makes it easier to tuck away on the counter where it isn't going to be bumped into.

    The only gripe I have is that the colander-looking thing you pour water through does not always do a good job soaking all the grounds. The instructions tell you not to stir the coffee, but I do gently press the grounds to ensure they're submerged. It's not a major issue at all, just stands out because of how much of the marketing is about that shower head feature.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Not Perfect, But is Anything in this World Anymore?
    Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2021
    Style: Cold Brew MakerVerified Purchase
    There is an issue with Cold Brew nowadays. Namely - there is a quickly closing gap in between the taste & value of homemade versus store bought. See back in the long long ago, the only place you could get cold brew was that hipster coffee shop near downtown (the one with the good music and the tip jar with the funny sign). Other than that, you had no choice but to make it yourself, and because of its lack of prevalence, you basically wound up making some super janky Toddy Style system with a Home Depot bucket and some cheesecloth because you didn't know what you were doing.
    Now, all of that is different. Cold brew has entered the general population and has surged in popularity (with good reason!) There does lie a problem though. People assume, just like traditionally brewed coffee, that its much much cheaper to make it at home. While this is true to an extent, its not nearly the cost benefit that you would see from making a pot at home versus a $3.50 macchiato from the green and white mermaid lady. The other issue is that hot coffee at home is dead simple; add water, add a filter, add grounds, push a button. Cold brew is simple, but not that simple. This leads to the biggest issue with cold brew - making it at home is kinda a hassle, no matter what fancy infusion system you've got, and the big boys at the supermarket selling gallons of clear, filtered, smooth cold brew right next to the cream cheese and orange juice do a pretty good job of it.
    Lets do some math. This cold brew system costs $30, which is pretty negligible assuming you use it for more than a few weeks. The real cost comes in the form of grounds. This system takes 6oz of ground coffee, and 24 oz of water at a time to make "5 to 7 servings". I have NEVER once drawn seven full servings out of it. Maybe if you're sensitive to caffeine or the size of a house cat you'll get the full seven, but I almost always get five, sometimes four if I'm being greedy. I buy mid-tier plebeian level coffee in 12 oz bags for $6.50. That means each brew with this system uses $3.25 worth of ground coffee, and generates five servings - meaning each serving is 65 cents a piece (not counting cream and sugar or whatever other shenanigans you add to your drink). Thats not bad. 65 cents is cheap and over the course of a year having two cups a day would mean you only spend $474.50 in grounds. You can spend that much at Starbucks in about 130 days on just one drink alone, or about 1.5 college mid terms worth (1.1 if you're a STEM Major)
    Now if you just say "eh" to it all, and buy pre-made cold brew, a reputable brand sells 32 oz of concentrate for $8.99 (lets say $9). Both the OXO and this pre-made brand recommend diluting 1 part concentrate to 2 parts milk or water, so their strength is about equal. If 24oz from the OXO is 5 servings, 32oz is 6.6 servings. Meaning the pre-made is $1.30 per serving. If you had the exact same amount of coffee from the pre-made, you would spend $949 over the course of the year. Now a difference of $470 or so over the course of a year sounds significant, and to many it is, but consider you'll spend $30 the first year on the OXO as well. Is $440 over an entire year worth it to you? Maybe. Is the amount of time wrangling grounds, waiting for steeping, filtering, and then enjoying worth that amount of time? It really depends on you, but it is something to consider.
    My review of the OXO is this: if you have a very SPECIFIC coffee in mind that you want to turn into cold brew, get it. Buying pre-made means you're at the mercy of whatever beans that company chooses, whereas when you make it yourself you get total control. That total control does come at a cost though. Grinding your own beans, waiting for infusion, and filtering all takes a certain amount of time. In my case, the built in metal mesh filter does not do a perfect job of removing sediment, and I often find myself running the concentrate through a paper filter afterwards in order to get it all. Every pre-made concentrate will be basically 100% sediment free. As well, using the wrong grounds, or grinding the coffee too fine will make the draining process slow to a crawl, as the filter gets completely clogged. Making sure your grounds are nice and chunky will help this, but if you buy pre-ground get ready to get sludgy.
    Do I love this product? Yes. Would I buy it again if it broke? No. Its got a good Aesthetic (TM) and that's about it. The big Toddy filters that places like Starbucks and whatnot use are ugly as sin, but work wonders. The traditional cold brew infusion bottles and jars (the ones with the mesh filters that sit in a big bottle of water) do alllllright, but are big and leave sediment all over the place. This is somewhere in between the two, and doesn't have the full pros of either, but doesn't sacrifice everything for design.
    I want you to be happy. I want you to drink great coffee that energizes and invigorates you. If having a neat little bottle with a cork top in your fridge makes you happy, go for it. If you just have to make cold brew yourself - I would recommend a Toddy system. If you just enjoy the taste of cold brew, buy it pre-made from one of those big corporate overlord brands.

    5.0 out of 5 stars So easy and great tasting coffee

    I chose this brewer after looking at quite a few different ones. It's great, really easy to use, clean and store when not in use. It makes really good cold brew and needs a coarse / very coarse grind of beans. I really like the glass carafe and having the concentrate available in the fridge makes coffee easy whether drinking it hot or cold.

    It works exactly as advertised, whether you like brewing for 12 hours at room temperature or for 24 hours in the fridge, it works great, and is easy to clean afterwards. The reusable metal mesh works great as long as you use the right size grind. Product was delivered on time in original packaging and received a follow up call from seller as well, so 5 stars across the board.

    Look, the only reason you wouldn't buy this is if you need more cold brew per batch. Otherwise, it's a simple, great design that works perfectly, disassembles easily for cleaning, looks like it has decent part availability (though I've not needed any), and makes a really decent brew for a reasonable price.

    One of my most-used coffee prep devices.
