Cold Brew Guide
Simple cold extraction method for smooth, low-acid coffee concentrate.
Cold brew uses time and cold water only. No heat. Results in smooth, less acidic coffee. Best with fruity or chocolatey light-roast single origins.
Recipe:
1:10 ratio (50g medium-coarse coffee, 500g water). Steep 16-24 hours.
Grind coffee:
Medium-coarse (like coarse sand). Weigh 50g.
Add to jar:
Place grounds in wide-mouth jar or bottle. Remove any filter.
Add water:
Pour 500g room-temp or cold filtered water. Stir gently to wet all grounds.
Steep:
Seal jar. Leave at room temp (16 hours) or fridge (24 hours). Stable temp best.
Filter:
Pour through fine mesh, paper filter, or cloth. Press lightly.
Serve:
Drink as-is, dilute 1:1 with water/milk, or over ice.
Notes:
Medium-coarse grind prevents bitterness.
Fruity coffees shine; chocolatey ones mix well with milk.
Keeps in fridge 1-2 weeks. Freeze extra as ice cubes.
Higher caffeine than hot brew – sip slowly.
Adjust ratio, time, and dilution to match your coffee and taste.
