- Grind 1 ½ cups dark roast coffee. Grind the coffee to a medium coarse grind and measure out 1 ½ cups of grounds. We’ve found dark roast coffee tastes best for cold brew.
- Add 6 cups filtered water in a large jar and mix. Add filtered water to the coffee grounds, and give it a little stir.
- Refrigerate and wait 24 hours! Here’s where the brewing magic happens: and you don’t need to do anything! Just wait while the coffee brews.
- Filter the coffee. Pour the coffee into a strainer with a towel placed inside. Then, your cold brew is ready to drink!
- Serve: Take ½ cup cold brew concentrate and mix it with 2 tablespoons milk or creamer and 1 teaspoon maple syrup.
