Toddy Brewing Container

Brews mean coffee. Very overpriced. Make one yourself!

You are paying for a (rather large, mind that fact if you’re tight on space!) plastic container with a hole on the bottom. THAT’S IT. It should cost 50 cents. No, really. Can’t say I wasn’t disappointed, even though great coffee does come out of it – but that’s entirely a function of beans and the method itself, not this simple plastic container.

Of course, its only benefit is its narrow neck on the bottom where Toddy’s own (overpriced) filters fit snugly. Then there is also a hole on the very bottom where Toddy’s own (overpriced) stoppers fit to plug it until you want to drain brewed coffee into a storage container (any bottle will do.) You can buy those stoppers at any HD for fifty cents – they have a choice of cork or rubber.

Try buying Toddy filters first, and finding a container that narrows down so you can place them well. How about a sturdy plastic bottle – cut out the bottom, turn upside down, no need for stoppers then, just use its cap to drain when done.

Does the job – Holds the coffee

Love the Toddy brewing system. This is the second replacement container I’ve purchased. It tends to crack right around where the plug goes in. The first one we washed in the dishwasher, the second we were very careful with, but after we moved and took it back out we had the same problem. Hopefully this one will last longer than 1 year.

Does What It Was Created To Do

This “Toddy Brewing Container with Handle” does exactly what it’s suppose to do….makes great cold brewed coffee. I’ve seend some comments about the handle being a problem. I sure wouldn’t try to pick up the container when it’s full of liquid without supporting it with my other hand. If used with common sense, you shouldn’t have a problem.
