ingredients
- 4 ounces whole coffee beans, ground coarse
- 4 cups filtered water
directions
- Pour the coarsely ground coffee in a large carafe or jar. Add the filtered water. The grounds will rise to the surface of the water.
- Gently stir together the coffee and water so that all the coffee grounds are well saturated. Cover with a tight-fitting lid.
- Place in the refrigerator for 18-24 hours.
- Line a sieve with cheesecloth, a flour sack towel, or a large coffee filter. Place it over a large glass measure, 4 cup capacity or greater. Slowly pour the coffee through the sieve.
- When all of the coffee is filtered through, discard the coffee grounds. Pour the coffee concentrate into a large container with a tight-fitting lid. Cold brew concentrate will keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
- To serve, fill an 8 oz. glass with ice cubes. Pour in 1/2 cup of coffee concentrate. Add up to 1/2 cup of cold water to dilute. Add flavored syrups, sweeteners, and creamers to taste, if desired.
