Cold-Brew Coffee

This homemade cold-brew coffee offers a remarkably smooth and mellow flavour that avoids the bitterness often found in traditional iced coffee. By steeping coarsely ground beans in cold water over a long period, you extract a rich, chocolatey essence that is naturally low in acidity and sugar. It is a refreshing alternative for warm mornings or a sophisticated afternoon pick-me-up that stays fresh in the fridge for up to a week.

Ideal for those following a low-sugar lifestyle, this versatile concentrate can be tailored to your exact taste. Whether you prefer it black and bold, diluted with chilled filtered water, or stirred with a splash of milk for a creamy finish, it provides a professional cafe-quality caffeine fix from the comfort of your own kitchen.

Ingredients for Cold-Brew Coffee

  • 350g high-quality coffee beans (about 950ml ), coarsely ground

  • Milk (optional

  • for serving)

  • A 12-cup (or larger) resealable container or stockpot with lid

  • a coffee filter or cheesecloth

How to make Cold-Brew Coffee

Place ground coffee in 12-cup container. Slowly pour 1450ml cool water over grounds. Stir very gently just until grounds are moistened. Seal container and chill 24 hours.

Strain coffee grounds through a fine-mesh sieve into a large measuring cup or bowl. Strain again through coffee filter into a large bowl or 3-cup (or larger) resealable container. (Alternately, skip the straining and use a thick filter, like for a Chemex.) To serve, pour over ice and dilute 1:1 with water or milk.
