Soaking coffee grounds in a jar of water overnight and then straining the coffee beans with a paper filter isn't a bad way to DIY cold brew, but new, transportable cold brew pitchers help streamline the process. Pampered Chef's new Cold Brew Pitcher ($59.50 at PamperedChef.com) debuted in June and functions as both the perfect at-home and travel cold brew maker. Remove the reusable filter, pour the concentrate into free hotel cups, filled with a scoop of hotel ice and a swish of cold water and in a cinch you have cold brew far better (and cheaper) than hotel options. Because it's hollow, you can use the short, wide pitcher to store extraneous soft items, like socks or bathing suits and not sacrifice prime suitcase room for your cold brew maker. Yielding 5 cups of cold brew concentrate, this pitcher is stout enough to fit in a standard hotel mini bar to keep cool and a rubber lid on top keeps your coffee fresh for a week.
