Cold Brew

Cold brew is a smooth, low-acid coffee made by steeping coarsely ground beans in cold or room-temperature water for an extended period. The outcome is a naturally sweet, mellow cup that’s perfect for iced coffee or refreshing drinks. The following recipe is designed specifically for use with a Toddy cold brew system, it should create a rich concentrate that can be diluted to taste.
