How to Make Cold Brew at Home

Measure 100ml of coffee and grind the beans in a very coarse setting.

If you do not have a cold brewing decanter it is advised to use either a French Press or a tea brewing pitcher.

Add the ground coffee to the filter component of the cold brew decanter if not directly in to the alternative brewer and knock the brewer to evenly distribute the coffee.

Add the measured 1000ml of water in to the chamber through the filter making sure to wet the grounds as you pour.

Cover and keep in a cool dry place (20 degrees Celsius) depending on the strength you desire the final brew to be at. Bear in mind that the longer the contact time, the stronger your coffee will be.

Once the desired contact time is reached, remove the filter and dispose the coffee grounds. If you are using brewing vessel that does not have a filter component, it is advisable to use either a paper filter or a fine mesh sieve.

Hooray, your cold brew is ready to hit your palette! But be careful since cold brew contains 2-3 times more caffeine than other regular brews.
