Brew
Cold Brew Concentrate
Coarse coffee steeped in cold water for 12–18 hours, then filtered. Smooth, sweet and low in acidity, and it keeps for about a week — the base for quick iced drinks.
Best with beans that taste
Why: Cold water pulls sweetness and body but little acidity, so chocolaty, nutty and caramel beans taste smooth and dessert-like. Bright fruity beans can taste flat cold-brewed.
