    Description

    This auction is for a Vintage 1950's Filtron Cold Water Coffee Extractor.  I show an advertisement in the last photo which shows the a complete setup.  This one is missing the plastic pieces.  There should be a round piece that would hold the beans under the water, a rubber ring, two cones and filter.  Some pieces (bean holder, plug) can still be purchased from Filtron.  Others will have to be substituted.  One site suggested using regular coffee filters.  I have included instructions for using the cold brew system.
    The brew system has three pieces, when stacked they measure approximately 13" tall, 9" diameter.  The glass is in good shape, I found no cracks chips or repairs.  There are white streaks on the glass, I show a closeup in the 10th and 11th photo.  I don't know if they could be buffed out.   The Bakelite handles and stainless bands are in good shape.
    The cold brew system reduces the natural acidity from your coffee.  The concentrate can be stored in the
    refrigerator for up to six weeks or may be frozen for longer periods. When reconstituted, it becomes a delicious smooth-tasting low acid cup of coffee.
