How To Make Cold Brew

1. To start, cold brew is made using a coffee:water ratio of 1:8 weighed in grams.

  • If you do not own a scale, you can use 4 cups of water and 23 tablespoons of coffee.

    • Note: A tablespoon of coffee is roughly 5 grams in weight

2. After weighing your coffee, grind it on a coarse setting. The grinds should be about the size of himalayan sea salt.
