Since 2013, cold brew coffee has been growing in popularity. Nowadays, making cold brew coffee couldn't be any easier!
Simple Steps for Making Cold Brew Coffee:
1. Add coffee grounds and water to a container.
2. Put it in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours.
3. After your desired time, strain out the coffee grounds.
4. Enjoy a smooth and extremely versatile coffee concentrate!
To enjoy your cold brew, add hot water for a deliciously smooth hot cup of coffee or add ice for a full-flavored iced coffee. Feel free to add any tasty modifiers like sugar, syrups, half and half, or non-dairy creamers to make your cold brew coffee drink just the way you like it.
Detailed instructions for making Cold Brew:
Making cold brew is easy!
1. Start with a coarsely ground coffee. The accepted ratio is one pound of coffee grounds to one gallon of water. For home brewing, stick to a half-pound of coffee to four cups of water. You can use water right from the tap, but if you're in a hurry, you can certainly boil the water first.
2. Keep it in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours. Again, if you're in a rush, six to eight hours may be sufficient. Any lidded container (except metal) will do.
3. Strain the coffee grounds from the water and keep the concentrate in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. If you choose to add water to the concentrate, it will greatly reduce the amount of time the coffee can be kept.
4. Serve and enjoy!
