Grind and brew automatic machines do exist, that might be a middle ground. Then she can at least use beans ground just before brewing as opposed to hours before.
This is where the obligatory "the water won't be hot enough for proper extraction" warning about most home counter top brewers goes.

> If you're like me, the main reason I roast my coffee is because it's the most cost effective way to get your daily dose of caffeine.
Okay, then I'm not like you, but lets continue...
> My goal is to save 15 minutes/day by cold brewing instead of my typical "hot brew" methods with aero press, percolator, drip brew etc.
Interesting idea, I have one on the way too and I feel you. But I'd rather sacrifice a morning shower than a good HOT coffee.
My solution? I have a semi cheap Grind-and-Brew Cuisinart drip coffee maker. I can program it the night before if I know time is limited, or if somebody is going to wake up before me (but who wakes up before 6:00am?).

> Instead, i'll be able to simply poor the cold brew in to a cup & microwave
Yeah... you lost me here. I'll take my decent grinder and drip over microwaved coffee. Making the big cold brew batch also takes up precious fridge space (all the new baby foods).
