    This is why I can’t make a pot of coffee without first emptying the dishwasher (if it’s clean), move dishes from sink to dishwasher, and take out the trash first.

    This is one reason why I drink Cold Brew. I only have to make it like once a week.

    I just defer all that to lunchtime when I need the griddle.

    Which of course doesn’t get cleaned until dinner, when the cycle repeats.

      And you’ll come back in from taking the trash out and forget the original plan was to make coffee and go do another thing instead.

        I have a primula cold brew pitcher that I bought several years ago and it has had constant use. I’m not sure if they still make/sell this particular model but it does approx 2qts at a time.

        So I’ll make a primula pitcher and let it steep for a few days, then move it to a “storage pitcher” (regular 2qt pitcher) and then start another primula pitcher that’ll steep until the storage pitcher is empty. Rinse. Repeat.

        The pitcher has held up amazingly well over the years. Recently, the filter handle has these two little metal pins that function as a hinge…over time they corroded and now needs replacement. I bought some little screws and nuts to do it but now I forgot where I put the handle.

        The great thing about cold brew is that even cheap beans/grounds make a pretty good coffee. I usually buy the cheapest pre-ground at Job Lot, or store brand at the wholesale club. The pitcher has definitely paid for itself in Dunkin runs.
