Cold Brew Coffee Made Simple
Last summer I started to make cold brew coffee at home. I found it to be incredibly easy and so much fun trying different types of coffee!
All you will need are the following items:
Coffee
Quart sized mason jar
Coffee Grinder
Nylon bag
The nylon bags are easy to find on Amazon and I am sure other stores. Nylon will do the best job of not allowing any coffee grinds to get into the cold brew.
The main thing with making cold brew is to use a courser grind for the coffee. For the quart sized mason jar, I use 1 cup of coffee.
Take the coffee and put it into the nylon bag and tie the bag. Now you will want to fill the jar with water. Good purified water will make better coffee than straight out of the tap. Seal up the mason jar and put into the refrigerator.
Typically, I allow at least 12 hours for the cold brew to sit before using it. The cold brew concentrate will be strong not only in flavor but also caffeine, so you will want to dilute it to your own desired strength.
Now it is time to enjoy! I like to make an iced latte especially with the coffee combination I used in this one:
French Roast
Bourbon Barrel Aged Dark Roast
Coconut Medium Roast
Happy cold brewing!
