To buy: Oxo Good Grips 32-Ounce Cold Brew Coffee Maker, $45 (originally $52) at amazon.com

The Oxo Good Grips 32-Ounce Cold Brew Coffee Maker nabbed the best overall slot in our cold brew makers test. We had professional baristas evaluate key category components, like coffee concentration, filtration, flavor, and ease of use. They found Oxo's model delivered the best results out of the ten cold brew makers they tested. 

Thanks to its smart design, this 32-ounce cold brew coffee maker is incredibly easy to use. All you need to do is fill the brewing container with your favorite coarse coffee grounds, pour cold water over the top, and let the mixture steep for anywhere from 12 to 24 hours, depending on your desired caffeine strength. It has a stainless steel mesh filter to prevent grounds from getting into the liquid, a unique top with holes that evenly distributes water for a smoother brew, and a lever for fuss-free draining.  Other features include a glass carafe that catches your cold brew and doubles as a measuring cup to help you track how much liquid you have.

Our barista testers raved about this machine. Victoria Ratermanis, a barista at Edy's Grocer in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, said this maker has "an authentic cold brew process" that resulted in "the strongest cold brew" she tested. She noted that her cold brew tasted great even after adding water to dilute it.
