COLD COFFEE
Cold brew coffee is a popular drink in the summer. The process of making cold brew coffee is different than brewing hot coffee and will take more time, but the end product and taste are worth it. This easy guide will show you how to make your own cold brew coffee at home.
INGREDIENTS
Cold brew coffee is made by steeping coffee grounds in cold water for an extended period, usually 8 hours or more. The process is different than brewing hot coffee because hot water extracts the flavors faster.
To make your own cold brew coffee, you will need:
- - A bag of ground beans that are finely ground
- - A container for the coffee (a pitcher or a jar)
- - Filtered water (use around four cups)
- - Honey or maple syrup to sweeten the finished product
- - A cheesecloth - this can be substituted with a fabric strainer
The most popular type of beans used for cold brew is Colombian and Brazilian dark roasts. You will want to grind them as finely as possible so they can dissolve easily. You also want to make sure you don't use any oils in the grinding process, as it will make your drink oily and bitter. Then, all you need to do is measure out your ground beans, add them into a container and then pour in cold water.
If you're using a cheesecloth, just put it over the top of the jar and then secure it with a rubber band before pouring in your ground beans. If you're using a fabric str

DRINK YOUR COLD BREW
iced coffee in a mason jar
Cold-brew iced coffee is a popular drink during the summer months. The process of making cold brew coffee is different from brewing hot coffee and will take more time, but the end product and taste are worth it. This easy guide will show you how to make your own cold brew iced coffee at home.
Cold brew is made by steeping coarsely ground coffee in cool water for 12-24 hours. The resulting mixture is then strained or filtered to remove any grainy particles or sediment that may have formed during the steeping process. It's important not to boil the mixture so as not to burn the beans and ruin the flavor of your coffee.
Making cold brew at home is easy! All you need are two ingredients: coarsely ground coffee and water. You will also need a container large enough to hold your desired amount of water and grounds, such as a French press pot, mason jar, or pitcher with a mesh filter on top (or cheesecloth). Lastly, you'll need something to strain or filter your finished product; we recommend using a nut milk bag, which can be found at most natural food stores or online retailers like Amazon.com
