Worth ItThey’re a little pricey, but these make clean up so much easier! I still use the reusable filter as well, these seem to be thinner than I remember and can break if not careful.

much sturdier than the off brand previously purchasedThese cost more, but after one use I understand why. They are definitely much sturdier than the off brand I tried previously.

You Don’t Need the Whole Messy Toddy System–Just use their filters! My inlaws convinced me to buy the whole Toddy system, so I bought one. But YIKES! It’s way more complex than it needs to be. All you really need is these filters–WAY easier and cheaper than using the whole system (see instructions below). With the full system, I was tired of worrying about the woolly bottom filter (which can leak coffee grounds and always looks dirty with embedded coffee grounds); the rubber bottom stopper (which can get lost–I had to re-purchase them); messy clean-up of grinds (which is time-consuming); and complex procedures (that you have to remember how to do).Here’s the EASIER, CHEAPER way using JUST these filters:1) Fill the filter bag with a whole package of ground coffee and sit it in a container (a pot or pitcher will do, as long as the water you pour in next rises high enough in the container to saturate the coffee in the filter).3) Pour 7 cups of water into the filter bag with the coffee and let the bag sit in the pot for about 10 hours (or however long you would normally brew). It can sit inside or out of the frig. Don’t worry about the grounds falling out–the bag will just sit there in the right position once it’s wet.4) After brewing, lift the filter bag up out of the pot and squeeze it so all the coffee juice is out of it into the pot (or just let it pour out).5) Throw away the filter bag with the coffee grinds. Pour the coffee from your pot into a pitcher of some sort.Easy, right?Now, here’s the COMPLEX way to do it (how the Toddy system works and why we no longer use it):1) First, the Toddy system requires you to grind your coffee coarsely (so, we got a coffee grinder) unless you buy filters additionally.2) To set up the system, you first have to cover the hole in the bottom of the white tub with a woolly filter (which turns into a mess of embedded grinds and sometimes doesn’t stop finely ground coffee from leaking through).3) Then you have to plug the hole under that with a rubber stopper, which will be in place while the coffee is sitting and brewing.4) Then, you pour your bag of coffee grounds into the white container and add 7 cups of water.5) After about 10 hours (or however long you want to brew), you set the white container on top of the glass pitcher to let the coffee filter through. But first you have to remove the rubber stopper–at which point the coffee starts pouring out before you can get it set onto the glass pitcher, so there’s always a little bit of a mess on my end.6) Once you have the white tub sitting on top of the glass pitcher, the coffee slowly strains through the woolly filter at the bottom of the white tub into the pitcher. The woolly filter is re-usable, but you’ll never get it clean, so explain to the family that it’s okay for it to be dirty and to not throw it away).7) After the coffee strains through, you are left with a mess of coffee grounds in the white tub, which you get to scoop out with your hands or ladle into the trash–and then wash the tub thoroughly.Way too much of a pain. Go the easy route! These filters are great!

Improved my toddy brewing experienceAlthough the filters seem a little expensive, they did make the brewing of cold brew using my toddy a little bit easier (no need to fill with water, then grounds, then water, then grounds, etc!). The coffee also drained much faster after brewing.

ExcellentThese are great. I love them. It’s so nice to use these when making my cold brew. The clean up is a breeze. I wouldn’t want to make my coffee without these. Excellent quality and I will buy again. Thank you. Worth the money 👍
