Cold Brew Coffee Recipes

Steps:

• Grind the beans in a coffee grinder on the coarse setting; the ground coffee should resemble coarse sugar or sand.
• Cut a 6-by-6-inch double thickness of cheesecloth. Put the coffee in the middle and tie tightly with kitchen twine. Put the sachet in a pint Mason jar or other 2-cup glass container. Add the cold water and seal tightly. (If you prefer, you can just add the coffee directly to the cold water and strain through cheesecloth after steeping.)
• Refrigerate and steep for at least 12 hours, though 18 to 24 hours is best. Remove the sachet, press to extract as much liquid as possible back into the jar and discard the sachet.
• To serve, pour equal parts cold brew concentrate and cold water over ice. Add milk and sweetener if using.

Steps:

• Place the coffee grounds in a clean glass container. Pour hot water over the grounds; let stand 10 minutes. Stir in cold water. Cover and refrigerate for 12-24 hours. (The longer the coffee sits, the stronger the flavor.), Strain the coffee through a fine mesh sieve; discard grounds. Strain the coffee again through a coffee filter; discard grounds. Serve over ice, with milk or cream if desired. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• In a jar, stir together coffee and 1 1/2 cups cold water. Cover and let rest at room temperature overnight or 12 hours
• Strain twice through a coffee filter, a fine-mesh sieve or a sieve lined with cheesecloth. In a tall glass filled with ice, mix equal parts coffee concentrate and water, or to taste. If desired, add milk.

Steps:

• Put 400ml cold water into a large jug or jar and add the coffee grounds, but do not stir the mixture. Cover and leave to steep for 24hrs.
• Gently stir the mixture then pour it through a funnel or sieve lined with coffee filter paper (or a sheet of kitchen paper) into another large jug. This concentrate will keep in the fridge for 2-3 days.
• To serve dilute 1 part cold brew with 2 parts still or sparkling water (or to your taste) and serve with lots of ice.
