HOW TO BREW COLD BREW
1. Grind your coffee
Achieve the perfect grind by using coffee beans ground to a coarse consistency, similar to that of sea salt. This ensures optimal flavor extraction during the steeping process.
2. Add water
Allow the cold brew process to unfold by gently pouring cold or room temperature water over the coffee grounds, ensuring their complete submersion. Maintain a ratio of approximately 1 part coffee to 4 parts water, but feel free to customize this ratio to match your unique flavor desires. Give it a gentle stir to ensure an infusion of flavors.
3. Steep and strain
Be patient after you cover the container and allow the cold brew to steep for a minimum of 12 to 24 hours in the refrigerator. Remember, the longer the steeping time, the bolder the cold brew concentrate will become.
4. Serve and enjoy!
Savor the satisfaction of personalization by diluting the cold brew concentrate to your exact preferences. Whether it's a touch of water or a splash of milk, unlock the full potential of your creation. Pour over ice and experience the pure delight of cold brew.
