I have just been using leftover brew from the morning and adding 1/2 &1/2 with a little raw sugar. I think when you add the 1/2&1/2 etc it becomes hard to tell the difference over the more in depth cold brewing methods.
Black rifle coffee company coffee rocks BTW

next batch I just dumped 1C of coarse ground in a mason jar and let it sit for 14 hours, strained it with cheese cloth but did not vacuum seal it. Tasted better, stronger though but not so bitter. Very drinkable.
Starbucks has almost no coffee taste to it :dunno: Tastes like whatever you mix it with. Think I prefer some coffee flavor.

Guess you missed the "if they drink cold coffee" part :dunno
Sorry I just always found that a funny saying and was trying to add a little humor. Didn't mean to offend

Coffee acidity scale
High= espresso
Medium= gravity coffee (drip), or coffee that's brewed under no pressure (French press, Aero press, siphon etc)
Low= cold brewed coffee

The process takes 24 hours but you get a full-flavored concentrate with very little bitterness or acidity that you can then dilute to your preferred strength with ice-water and cream.
Absolutely the best method of coffee consumption in my book! (at least between June-August)

The high acidity in brewed coffee comes with the application of heat in the brew process. When coffee is steeped cold, it prevents most the acids from being extracted out of the raw coffee.

Do you get the same yield as with hot brew and how long does it take? Actually cold water or room temperature? Refrigerate while steeping?

pop it in the fridge for 24 hours. Strain through cheese cloth into another 1/2 gallon jar.
I use 1/2 gallon mason jars since I have a bunch of them for cider and plastic lids.
I enjoy it, but others might have something even better.

It's typically a 1/1 ratio of ground coffee to water. I like to run .75/1 brewed for 24hrs at 45 degrees. You'll want to refrigerate while steeping. If you are able, use filtered water to help the shelf life and help keep the microbes under 11,000.
