Product Description
OUR BAGS ARE BETTER FOR (AT LEAST!) 3 REASONS
MATERIAL
We use the best natural organic cotton to make our cold brew bags.
No if's, and's, or but's.
SOLID CONSTRUCTION
Our cold brew bags are hand-made and use a super fine weave so that only coffee, nut milk, or juice gets filtered out. This way you won't have any sludge left behind.
If you’ve used nylon filter bags before you’re probably familiar with the “sludge” that ends up in your cup. Kind of ruins your morning, right?
With our cold brew coffee bag, just filter once and you’re done. No more filtering multiple times, or using paper filters to filter again, making a mess of your kitchen counter!
Go ahead and wring every last drop of your coffee, nut milk, or juice out of the filter bag. Our bags won’t cry, tear, or fray.
EASY TO USE AND CLEAN UP
The last thing you want to do after you’re ready to enjoy your freshly made cold brew coffee, nut milk, or juice is to spend minutes trying to pry and loosen a wet cotton drawstring, fiddle around with rubber bands, clasps, etc. It's enough to make you dump your entire brew into the trash from sheer frustration (we've heard)!
That’s why we're all about KISS: Keep It Simple Sam (added "Sam" to make the acronym work better). Our EasyOpen drawstring is made from nylon, which makes untying the bag a fast, simple, and dare-we-say, enjoyable process r/oddlysatisfying.
We also made sure cleaning the bag is easy too. Just turn the cold brew coffee bag inside out, dump most of the grounds into the garbage or compost, and then rinse it out under the faucet. Air dry, and soon you'll be ready to go with another batch of this wonderful caffeinated elixir.
3 STEPS TO AMAZING COLD BREW
It's easy to make your own cold brew at home, even if it's your first time.
Just follow these simple steps:
1) FIND A CONTAINER
No need for anything fancy schmancy here, save yourself a few bucks and stay away from those specialized and expensive cold brew containers.
A wide-mouth mason jar or any container with a relatively large opening that holds around 64oz / 6 cups / 1.89 liters / 1,893 milliliters will work (just saved you some conversions!). Make sure it also has a lid that can close tightly.
2) GET COFFEE
Before the bag arrives, make sure you have coffee at home. Feel free to use whatever coffee you have available. You don't need anything fancy schmancy here either. After you've done a few brews you can experiment with different beans - light, medium, dark, single/multiple origin, flavored, fancy ones, etc - and adjust to your taste.
The most important thing about your coffee grounds is the grind.
A coarse grind is key, think consistency of sea salt. The store-bought-pre-ground coffee is normally for drip brews machines like the one you (tolerate) at work. Ideally, buy whole beans and grind them at home right before you make a brew, preferably using a burr (and not a spinning-blade-of-death) grinder.
Or, feel free to grind in the store, but using - REPEAT AFTER MEEEE! - a coarse grind.
3) IT'S BREWING TIME
- WASH BAG: We recommend rinsing it in warm water and/or use a little dish soap.
- STRETCH the bag over your container (don't have a container? Go back to Step 1).
- GRIND & MEASURE COFFEE: grab your sea-salt coarse grounds and start with a 1 : 5 coffee grounds to water ratio and adjust from there. It's ok to use more water (1 : 8 ratio or more). If the cold brew ends up a bit too concentrated, just dilute right before you drink it, no one's judging you. In fact, we prefer a concentrated brew since it means we have a lot more for the coming week!
- CLOSE the bag by pulling the drawstring tight, cinch up the top of the bag, then tie the drawstring around opening.
- WAIT: The hardest part, wait for 12-24 hours and let chemistry work it's magic.
- REMOVE & SQUEEZE: After 12-24 hours, remove the bag and use your hands to squeeze the the bag. Feel free to use another container to help catch the dripping cold brew.
- CLEAN bag by following EASY TO USE AND CLEAN UP section above

I highly recommend these filters for quality and durability. I purchased a set of these filters in August 2o22 and have used *one* filter to brew cold brew coffee once every 10 days or so, and the filter continues to work exceptionally well. (Writing this review in February 2025). The filter shows no signs of wear or deterioration (despite my habit of sqeeeeezing and twisting the filter filled with grounds once I finish a brew, trying to extract all of the wonderful coffee). For cold brew, I use the filter in a one-gallon glass jar that I purchased at Target (described in my next paragraph). I use coarsely ground coffee beans (~160 gm by weight) and ~2100 ml of water, and it yields almost exactly 64 ounces of cold brew coffee. I include photos of my brewing process in action!The glass jar at Target is called "128oz Glass Jar with Metal Lid - Threshold™: Clear Glass Food Storage Container, Stainless Steel Lid." The price is $6.00

I used this to brew my coffee. I love the fact that it’s reusable and that I’m no longer adding to the garbage pile. The coffee tastes great and the bag held up way better than the disposable bags. I just wish the size was a little larger for my brew container.

I used to have a Toddy and was considering getting replacement filters. When I searched filters this doppelganger bag came up, and it has been a joy to use.I just put the grounds in the bag, added water and soaked for 24 hours and voila excellent cold brew. Simple, easy, fantastic cold brew.

I have only used this filter once but the experience was so much better than with paper filters. I have a Filtron cold brew system and the 8x12 filter fits perfectly. The taste and feel of the coffee is different/better than with the Bunn paper filters I was using, somehow the yield is higher with this filter (perhaps because the coffee is contained more tightly in the bag). Finally, the last steps of squeezing the coffee out of the filter, throwing out the coffee and washing /drying the filter was very easy and clean. Love this product!

Very easy to use. I didn't submerge the bag into my 2L Mason jar, I kept the mouth of the bag open and around the opening of the jar and screwed the lid over the whole thing. And my cold brew tastes great! Highly recommend this product!

This light weight exquisite fabric filter bag is easy to fill with a cup (or stronger)of coarse ground coffee, pull the drawstring and submerge in carafe with cold water. I used an old glass toddy carafe with a snap on lid. A quart or larger mason jar works too!Store in refrigerator overnight or longer. Squeeze bag to drain all liquid. I then empty grounds in my front yard flower pots or soil .Rinse bag in cold water till water runs clear and then hang outside to dry. Wonderful! The old toddy systems were cumbersome and cleanup was messy.

I bought a cold brew pitcher with an included filter for steeping the coffee grounds. I found it took a very long time to produce a good pitcher of coffee with that filter and started favoring those prefilled disposable cold brew coffee bags from the grocery store, which are more expensive and they tear easily.I found this company and decided to give it a try. I just made my first pitcher and it made some great coffee in just over 12 hours! The other filter would take 24 hours and I’d have to stir the grounds every so often.The only thing is it’s harder to get a lot of the used grounds out of the bag than the filter, and obviously the disposable bags you can just toss out with no clean up. I’ve heard it’s not the best to put a lot of coffee grounds down the drain so next time I’ll try harder to dump more out, but it’s a little annoying.When rinsing the bag I noticed some grounds had gotten into the space at the top wear the drawstring is. That’s a minor thing but thought it worth mentioning. All in all I like it and will continue to use to save money and be a little less wasteful.

I was using a gallon size glass mason jar style container with metal micro-mesh filter that had metal dispenser that was attractive but dripped everywhere because you really can't avoid that without scrunching a paper towel around the dispenser hole each use. I was just using my usual grind coffee from a can and that left a lot of silt, and the seller recommends course grind anyway so, I tried that but still got the same silt in the coffee regardless. This sleeve eliminates the silt and I can just use it in my choice of gallon container: I use what mom would have always used for kool-aid. A good handle, a plastic top that comes on and off and also holds the drawstring from the cloth sleeve sort of in place. Honorable mention though; the string will wick the coffee and drip in the fridge, so I've made a habit of wrapping the string around the handle, or use some other similar concept which stops the mess. Great product I've been using it over 6 months now and it hasn't come apart at the seams or otherwise ripped yet. It will eventually, and I'll be buying another... actually 2 more just to make sure when it's usefulness is at an end, I have the replacement on hand!
