County Line Kitchen vs Coffee Bear Side-by-Side Comparison
Overall Verdict
The County Line Kitchen and Coffee Bear cold brew coffee makers can easily fit in your refrigerator door. They are, however, quite different in their design and the quality of the brew they produce.
The County Line Kitchen is by far the better brewer. It uses a brew ratio of 1:9 and the quality and strength of the brew are comparatively good. The brew (ratio 1:13) produced by the Coffee Bear tends to be a little below average. This difference is also due to the County Line Kitchen’s better-designed filter.
The Coffee Bear is a glass jug brewer with a plastic and nylon filter. It has a nicely designed twist-to-pour lid, but unlike the County Line Kitchen mason jar brewers, it cannot store on its side after brewing. The Country Line Kitchen is also all the more versatile because its stainless steel mesh filter can also be used for hot beverage brewing.
