Crystal-Clear Cold Brew

Cold brew doesn't ask much of you — just a little patience and a place in the fridge. Set it up before bed, wake up to something smooth, low-acid, and ready to pour. The slowest coffee you'll ever love.

All You Need

  • Brew time 8–10 hours
  • Grind size Medium-coarse
  • Coffee dose 60 g
  • Water amount 700 ml

Tools

  • Jar or pitcher
  • Fine strainer or filter paper
  • Digital scale
  • Spoon or stirrer

Brew Method

1 Grind 50–60g of coffee to a medium-coarse setting — closer to sea salt in texture.
2 Add the grounds into your jar or pitcher.
3 Pour in 700ml of cold, filtered water. Stir gently until all grounds are fully saturated.
4 Cover or seal the jar. Place it in the fridge and let it steep for 8–12 hours — overnight works perfectly.
5 Once steeped, pour the brew slowly through a fine strainer or filter paper to remove all grounds.
6 Pour over ice and serve as is, or dilute slightly with water or milk to taste.
