Aquach vs Toddy System Side-by-Side Comparison
Aquach cold brew coffee maker vs the Toddy Cold Brew System. Two brewers with a stylish twist, but only one stands out.
Aquach Cold Brew
Tested Using Methodology v1.0Toddy Cold Brew
Tested Using Methodology v1.0Overall Verdict
Aquach is a very stylish carafe-style brewer with an immersion filter. The filter can be lifted out with a little handle, and the stopper is a good fit. All looks good, except that the ultra-fine, lasered filter isn’t the best for producing a high-quality brew. However, the brew is good enough to drink, and the glass carafe and stainless steel filter can easily be used for additional hot beverage brewing.
The Toddy uses a freestyle brewing technique with a separate brew vessel. You can adjust the brew ratio as desired. The quality of the brew is excellent all round, as is the design of the product. The most attractive feature of the Toddy is its carafe, which stands out in much the same way as the Aquach does. It can also be used for cold brewing tea; two sample filter bags come with the package.
