HyperChiller HC1 Patented Iced Coffee/Beverage Cooler, NEW, IMPROVED,STRONGER AND MORE DURABLE! Ready in One Minute, Reusable for Iced Tea, Wine, Spirits, Alcohol, Juice, 12.5 Oz, Mint

I LOVE this gadget! For those who reviewed negatively due to cracking, I can only imagine they cannot follow instructions. Make sure to follow the instructions (not difficult) and you'll be fine. I use mine almost every day and it's been fantastic!

This HyperChiller solves the biggest problem with making iced coffee with a single-serve machine – Watered down coffee no more! I use my Keurig to make the coffee, toss it into this, leave it for a minute or two, swirl and then pour over ice. No more watered down coffee, keeps the cost low AND you don't need to clean between uses! When you do want to clean, it's easy to defrost, clean and re-assemble with ease. Get this if you were in the same boat as me!

I prefer iced coffee over hot anytime of the year.
This is the easiest and fastest method of preparing iced coffee without being watered down that I have ever tried. I have tried many ways, including refrigerator iced coffee (brewed in fridge), k-cups sold specifically to make iced coffee, and just letting the coffee cook on porch in winter lol. None of these are convenient or quick, and the k-cups taste watered down.
Now, I usually use regular k-cups, brew, and then pour immediately in the chiller. While I wait a couple minutes to cool, I prepare add ice to my glass. Usually by the time I get my glass of ice ready, coffee is about done in chiller. I just pour in my glass of ice, and bam, done!! I rinse the chiller out and put it back in the freezer. I only take the chiller apart and replace the water inside once every week or two. This is quick and has worked fine for me. Not sure if it is specified to replace water or when, but since the water inside doesn’t touch the coffee, it doesn’t need to be done often at all. I mainly replace the water just in case some is lost to evaporation after awhile.

I suggest that if you use a j-cup, you brew into a cup with a pouring lip. I use a glass measuring cup for this purpose. When I used a regular coffee cup, I spilled some pouring into the chiller every time. That was an easy fix, and if your pouring from a coffee carafe, that will not be an issue. Buy it! I have used this everyday since purchase months ago, and it is still working great.

I’ve had one of these for over a decade and just upgraded to this new version! I use it regularly to cool down freshly brewed coffee, but I’ve also used it for wine and cocktails over the years. It lives in the freezer so it’s always ready to go. The cooling capacity is about one beverage—a hot cup of coffee is perfectly chilled in about a minute. This updated version has a much better seal and doesn’t leak, which is why we finally replaced our original after 10 years. My whole family is getting one for Christmas this year—it’s incredibly practical!

11/29/18 – Updated For Hyperchiller V2

I’ve had the original version for some time now and recently got this V2 model. And the V2 fixes the quirks that plagued the original. The concept has remained unchanged. But the original model had a leakage issue when pouring out the coffee. There were 2 vent holes that help with pressure inside the device, and the melted ice / water would come out when you tipped the unit steeply at the end of the pour. I used to have to cover both holes with my thumbs when pouring so i didn’t get water in my coffee.

They fixed that in V2 so the hole is smaller, just a single hole now, and better placed. So there’s no leakage issues.

The spout is slightly modified in V2 as is the shape being not entirely round like it was before.

So..all in all , V2 was a worthy upgrade and I think they’ve perfected this device at this point!

Works as advertised. Gone are the days of pouring hot coffee over ice and being left with watered down iced coffee, or having to make coffee in advance and have it take up space in the refrigerator! I have a Keurig and with the drip pan removed the HyperChiller fits nicely and the coffee pours right into the HyperChiller.

My only issue, and it's not one that applies to everyone per se, is that I make a 10 oz cup of coffee and this will melt all the ice in the HyperChiller. So at that point it has to go back in the freezer for 10 hours to freeze before being used again. I like to have one in the morning and another in the afternoon which can't be done.

It's a surprisingly low tech concept and design so not sure where the $40 price tag is warranted. There must be some knock off's out there for less than half the price.

Omg for you iced coffee loves I’ve found the best gadget EVER!!! So my morning routine is to brew my coffee go back in bed or what ever while my hot coffee cools down to then, if I have the patients, put it in the refrigerator for a little (I more times than not skip this step) then add my ice and hope for the best…. I’ve also made the coffee ice cubes but to be honest that’s a pain… well Café Procopio game changer!!! So you get your HyperChiller and fill a stainless steel chamber with water then you fill the plastic container with water and in between those two is another stainless steel chamber that in 12 hours turns arctic cold! So when your ready to brew your coffee you just put this mug looking contraption under your coffee machine and when it’s done you just rotate it one way then another let sit while you get your drinking glass ready with ice and a straw and pour!!! OMG my iced coffee was so cold my lips turned blue!!!! You then just pour some clean water in where your coffee went do a couple of twirls then dump out and it’s clean!! Put back in freezer and repeat! It’s able to go in top shelf in your dishwasher and works with tea, alcohol and juice and is small enough to “chill out” in your freezer without bothering anyone. It is supposed to be able to chill 2 12.5oz drinks before you need to re freeze!! After my 1st use I’m convinced this is a Café Procopio 2 👍🏻👍🏻 up!!!! You can get directly from them, plus as of this review, offering a coupon or just get it on Amazon for a few bucks more!
