HyperChiller HC1 Patented Iced Beverage Cooler, Reusable, 12.5 Oz, Mint

Cools coffee so quick. Love this

Works really well and does exactly what it promises. It cools hot coffee quickly without watering it down, which is the main reason I bought it! It’s simple to use, easy to clean, and convenient for making iced coffee at home without waiting around. Overall, it’s a practical little gadget that actually delivers on its purpose and I’ve been happy with it so far.

Works as described I use it everyday

I bought a Hyperchiller for office coffee - summer in Alabama average 10,000 degrees, so hot coffee seems like a waste. After using it a couple of times, I can understand the hype, but I also noticed more than a few things that merit improvement. Hyperchiller works as advertised-sort of. I won't get into the minutia of why this isn't an iced coffee maker, as I'm sure other reviewers have noted. This isn't a replacement for a Toddy or French press or bean bag or however you prefer to make cold brew coffee-rather, this is something that takes a hotter beverage and makes it colder, and in that regard it works really, really well. If I pour coffee fresh from brewing into the fully-frozen Hyperchiller and let it sit for a minute, the coffee comes out pretty cool. Not freezing cold- hot coffee poured into this is never going to be an iceless experience- but cool enough that I can add ice and milk and not water my drink down. For drinks that are often room temperature and chilled with ice- wine and whiskey come to mind- I think the Hyperchiller can chill them down to that ice cold level, but for near-boiling liquids? Nah. That has more to do with science than any design flaw, though, so I'm fine with it. Something I'm not fine with it the pouring mechanism. I understand the wider you make the opening the more likely you'll lose temperature and have worse results, but the lid is designed with an angled slot sort of design that's very shallow and awkward to fill, at least with a coffee carafe. Even taking a paper cup and making a sort of funnel the pour the coffee in always results in a puddle of coffee around the base of the Hyperchiller. I'll probably bring in a small measuring cup next week to see how that works, but the fact that it's immediately awkward to pour something in means it will end up being a bad user experience. Why not design the lid with gasket-sealed pouring spouts like travel mugs? You open one, dump your liquid in, close it, and it automatically seals. Make the caps the diameter of a quarter and you have a foolproof pouring mechanism. Sure, it adds more to R&D, but it's worth it. Getting the chilled coffee into the cup is a better experience, but not without some quirks as well, namely the lid vents, which are meant to help with freezing/refreezing so the water doesn't stress the steel. The way the pouring spout is designed, you have to almost invert the Hyperchiller to get everything out, which will cause any melted water to pour out of the vent holes as well. There's more than likely a better way to design either the spout or the vents to prevent this. All in all, Hyperchiller is good, but it could be great. There are some design flaws that don't put it in a design museum, but the intentions are there. Hopefully, they'll absorb all the feedback we're leaving and make an even better Model 2.

DEFINITELY BUY THIS FOR A GREAT ICED COFFEE--! BUT BE AWARE--DO NOT FILL THE WATER CHAMBERS TOO FULL. We happily used this product for several weeks before screwing it up. The directions probably mention this somewhere, but I'm dumb and didn't read them. We filled the outer water chamber too full, and when it froze, the ice expanded and the plastic housing cracked and now it leaks. We WOULD try to blame the company, but we realize in hindsight how physics works. We ordered the stainless steel model to replace it to prevent further user error. You'll be fine with this one as long as you leave a little space at the top when you full it with water. But, if you want to completely avoid that possibility at all, grab the steel one. We DO really like this product, though. It cools down fresh hot coffee in about 10 minutes, making iced coffee in the summer very easy. We can fill it up twice before the ice completely thaws, which means plenty for two, OR just a biiiiig iced coffee for one. The only thing I would ask for, is one that's maybe the size of a mini-keg or a gallon milk jug. 😉

I actually love this and have one that I purchased sometime during the pandemic. It's still going fine. And working great. But all of the plastic ones that I've purchased in the last year and treated exactly the same as my first one have cracked within less than 3 months. I don't know if they've changed the plastic or if the mint color is stronger than the white or the black, but going to switch over to the stainless steel and see if that works. It is a beautiful idea that I love for creating my protein coffee in the morning. But the materials have obviously not stood up. Please note I do use this every single day and only for coffee.

I prefer iced coffee over hot anytime of the year. This is the easiest and fastest method of preparing iced coffee without being watered down that I have ever tried. I have tried many ways, including refrigerator iced coffee (brewed in fridge), k-cups sold specifically to make iced coffee, and just letting the coffee cook on porch in winter lol. None of these are convenient or quick, and the k-cups taste watered down. Now, I usually use regular k-cups, brew, and then pour immediately in the chiller. While I wait a couple minutes to cool, I prepare add ice to my glass. Usually by the time I get my glass of ice ready, coffee is about done in chiller. I just pour in my glass of ice, and bam, done!! I rinse the chiller out and put it back in the freezer. I only take the chiller apart and replace the water inside once every week or two. This is quick and has worked fine for me. Not sure if it is specified to replace water or when, but since the water inside doesn’t touch the coffee, it doesn’t need to be done often at all. I mainly replace the water just in case some is lost to evaporation after awhile. I suggest that if you use a j-cup, you brew into a cup with a pouring lip. I use a glass measuring cup for this purpose. When I used a regular coffee cup, I spilled some pouring into the chiller every time. That was an easy fix, and if your pouring from a coffee carafe, that will not be an issue. Buy it! I have used this everyday since purchase months ago, and it is still working great.

This is how I do coffee all of the time now. It really does a really good job at making the coffee cold. Only downside would be that if you plan on doing more than 12oz expect the cooling power to dimmish but it makes sense. Sometimes you just want that 24oz of coffee in the morning. From testing 2 uses in a row is the max it can do before you need to freeze it again

I have had this on my mind for a while , I was a bit skeptical at first but I was amazed with how well it works , I tried both coffee and a fizzy drink , it chilled them both really quick. I would recommend this product to anyone who likes to drink iced coffee without dilution or just a drink or two that need cooling.

Je suis déçu du produit, mon café meme au bout de 3 min reste tiède.. bien loin des 60 secondes annoncée de plus , le produit est très volumineux ainsi je dois le mettre de côté dans le congèle et toute l'eau s'écoule par des trous sur le couvercle.. je ne recommande pas ce produit vu le prix élevé

Awesome product. Delivers as written on its description. Going to buy one more.

Even though I heard mad reviews, I was skeptical of how effective this thing could be... well spending-money-friends, throw your money AT the Hyperchiller if you like instant cold drinks! Like really cold! Even with straight-from-the-Keurig hot coffee turned ice cold within a minute! The only thing is, you can't do a spurr of the moment drinks and it only works on 1. So if you're a mega fan of iced coffee or iced tea and don't want to dilute it with ice, get more than 1 of these babies. I know I'll be buying a second one! Reason is, you need the water within the isolated layers to freeze for it to work. It is SUPER effective though! I was also skeptical about the "put it straight under the Keurig thing". I was afraid that it wouldn't be able to handle the flow of the hot coffee pouring out straight from the machine... but nope, no oopsies! The coffee just went in without any splashes or overspills and straight in. Lightly swirl for a minute and voilà! Instant iced coffee to pour into your favorite cup (also spill free pouring!) So yummy! And zero dilution! Just 100% coffee taste. It's amazing when you open up the hyperchiller afterwards because most of the water between the layers is completely melted back to water! That WAS pretty hot! Also super super easy to clean. Take it apart, put it in the dishwasher and done. Putting it back together, including filling the layers with water takes less than a minute. Hassle-free. Definitely recommend and buying a 2nd one. Best way out there to get that hot coffee turned ice cold in seconds without any funny taste.

Follow the instructions and it does exactly what it says. They are big and take up a lot of room in the freezer, but if you have the space they are great at quickly cooling hot liquids
