cold brew coffee即为 Cold Brew Coffee。 Put the ground coffee powder into room temperature water, soak and extract it for 12 hours, then filter the coffee grounds and the coffee liquid obtained is cold brew coffee. Compared with ordinary hot brewed coffee, it has a significantly stronger coffee flavor, less bitterness, and a smoother taste.
It should be noted that the longer cold brew coffee is left, the more fermented it will be, so the taste you drink every day will be different. Front Street recommends that it is best to drink it within 3-4 days.
This kind of coffee, which sounds quite labor-intensive, is actually much simpler to make than you think. You can understand it like this: Soak the coffee powder in cold water, put it in the refrigerator to soak overnight, filter the coffee grounds, and you're done. The principle is actually similar to ice-drip coffee, except that cold brew coffee is extracted with cold water for a long time, and because it is extracted at low temperature, only small molecules such as fruit acid and floral aroma are dissolved.
Maybe, you will ask, "What other coffee beans are recommended for making cold brew coffee?"
I would recommend trying washed or specially processed beans.
The reason is very simple, that is, the cold brew coffee produced is more recognizable and sweeter~

Cold brew coffee is a very easy method to master. In the past, the production method of Street Flower Butterfly cold brew coffee was based on 50 grams of coffee powder. The grinding thickness of the coffee powder was 85% using a No. 20 standard sieve. Put the coffee powder into a glass bottle, then add 400 ml of room temperature water and 200 grams of hard ice cubes (a total of 600 grams of ice-water mixture) into the bottle. The powder-to-water ratio is 1:12. Then use a stirring rod to stir the coffee powder and water evenly, then seal and place in the refrigerator.
After placing it in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours, use filter paper to filter out the coffee grounds to obtain clean coffee liquid. Then use a clean sealed bottle to store the coffee liquid and refrigerate it for about 4 hours before drinking.
