DIY COLD-BREW COFFEE

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 pound coffee grounds with 6 cups cold water in a large pitcher or glass jar. Let stand 5 minutes.
• Add remaining coffee grounds and 3 cups cold water, making sure all the grounds are wet. Cover, and let steep, at room temperature for 12 hours or in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
• Pass mixture through a fine sieve set over a medium bowl; discard coffee grounds. Line sieve with a standard coffee filter and pass mixture through again; discarding any remaining sediment. Pour coffee concentrate into an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
• To serve, dilute concentrate with an equal proportion of water or milk.

HOW TO MAKE COLD BREW COFFEE

Steps:

• Coarsely grind the coffee Grind the coffee beans on the coarsest setting on your grinder , or in short 1-second pulses in a spice grinder. The grounds should look like coarse cornmeal, not fine powder. You should have just under 1 cup of grounds.
• Combine the coffee and the water Transfer the coffee grounds to the container you're using to make the cold brew. Pour the water over top. Stir gently with a long-handled spoon to make sure the grounds are thoroughly saturated with water.
• Steep overnight Cover the jar with a lid or a small plate to protect it from dust and bugs. Let the coffee steep for about 12 hours. The coffee can be left on the counter or refrigerated; steeping time is the same.
• Strain the coffee Line a small strainer with cheesecloth or flour sack cloth and place over a large measuring cup or bowl. Pour the coffee through the strainer.
• Store the coffee Transfer the coffee to a small bottle or jar and store in the fridge for up to a week.
• Serve the coffee Dilute the coffee with as much water or milk as you prefer. Serve over ice or warm for a few minutes in the microwave.
