I wanted this to make cold brew while I'm staying at my daughters' home instead of bringing my Mason jars, etc. This is a very nice kit for cold brew, with a 24 ounce, tall, wide-mouth Mason jar, pouring lid and stainless steel micro-perforated insert for the coffee, which all came well-packaged. I added a different top from the same company that has a pitcher-type handle to make it easier to keep hold of and pour with my hands. If you really like well-filtered coffee, then you might want to use a filter bag, but only if you are using a very fine grind of coffee – I often have only fine ground coffee on hand, so I do use a filter then, although the filter in this did a great job, all in all, when I tried it the first time on it's own with the fine ground coffee that was available. But even better is the company themselves. They reached out to ask me if I had any questions, and when I mentioned that the magnet that has the ratios for cold brew, which comes with the kit, had been folded in half and I couldn't get it flat, they verified my order and said that they would send me a new one. I thought that was very nice of them. I was expecting a small envelope with the magnet, but they actually sent me another whole Cold Brew Kit! The pitcher lids come in a box of two, so now I can make a regular and a decaf cold brew at the same time, or give somebody a very nice gift. Their customer service is above and beyond and I am going to buy other things from them to use with my Mason jars and to give as gifts to my friends who use Mason jars, too.
