How to make Cold Brew Coffee (that doesn't suck)

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

These days, cold brew is everywhere…cafes, supermarkets, liquor stores, your grandma’s place.
But just because it’s easy to find, doesn’t mean it always tastes good. In fact, much of the cold-brew coffee out there is downright awful.
In this video, we take you through what you’ll need to get started, and step-by-step recipe to making better tasting cold brew using the classic Toddy Brewer.

    400 Grams to 2000 Milliliters, so the ratio is 1:5, ONE part coarse coffee grinds to FIVE parts water. Let it brew for 20-24 hours the filter it and store the coffee for up to 14 days (2 weeks). This is how I learn, by writing the thing that I learned.

    I get so confused by ratios: if you have 400 g of coffee and 2000 ml of water, then you have a total of 2400 g of ingredients. 400 / 2400 is 1/6. So the ratio kind of makes sense in that you have 1 part (i.e. 1 sixth) coffee grinds PLUS 5 parts (5 sixths) water (for a total of 6 parts). The other way of putting is to say 200 g per litre in this example - then if you know how much coffee concentrate you want to produce, you know how much coffee you need to grind.

    @@paperclipbike ((let me see if I can help. If you consider a ratio as a fraction that's confusing. A fraction is not the same as a ratio. A fraction is an amount. A ratio is a proportion, a relationship. Of course they are related (haha) but they are different ways of expressing how two quantities compared to each other. They both use the language of numbers,of course. --- So the ratio here is 1 to 5 You end up with 6 grams. The coffee is a fraction of 1/6 of the whole. When you weigh the composed of one gram of coffee and 5 grams of water you will work out at 6 grams. When you weigh out the individual parts you have one gram of coffee and 6 grams of water. It's statistics. it's like what Trump demonstrated he didn't understand about the covid statistics during a recent interview. You have to look at what the second number refers to. In the fraction the 2nd number refers to the weight of the mixture. In the ratio of the second number refers to the weight of the water alone. I have no idea if this helped you but it sure helped me to type it out. All the best and THANK YOU for posting and reminding me of the proportions. I'd forgotten he even mentioned them.))

    @@dreamervanroom That's a good and concise summary. Just to point out a couple of, what I think is, typos (I normally wouldn't be nit picking, but since you made the effort to clarify this for someone who is trying to learn, I thought I should point out what might be a bit confusing): "So the ratio here is 1 to 5" - you should add the unit "grams" after both 1 and 5 if you later want to use a unit in the conclusion "You end up with 6 grams." ("1 to 5" without units doesn't say anything about how much the totality will weigh.) Second thing would be "When you weigh out the individual parts you have one gram of coffee and 6 grams of water." - I'm sure you meant to write "[...] and 5 grams of water". Anyways, excellent job explaining the difference!

    Don't forget, you can also serve cold brew hot. Only the brewing needs to be done at room temp. The original Toddy instructions back in the 60's had instructions for adding 2 parts boiling water to the concentrate. With a water kettle or a microwave, cold brew served hot is amazing and fast.

    We have been making cold brew Toddy for 40 years. My wife started it and over the years have modified the process. She is in heaven now but I try to duplicate her system. First the recipe: 2 cups French roast coffee, 2 cups medium roast coffee and one cup coffee and chicory, 8 cups water. The process uses the basic toddy container and fiber filter however we place the fiber filter into the center of a paper basket filter ala Mr Coffee type and press both into the bottom of the Toddy. Put the rubber plug into Toddy. Add 4 cups filtered water, stir, the add 4 more cups water. Cover and brew for 24 hours. Forgot, after draining the first batch of coffee I add 4 cups of filtered water to grounds and brew for 12 hours resulting in. Second brew that is put into a separate Toddy carafe. Both are store in the frig. I make my first ice coffee in the morning with the first drip and the second a few hours later. I use a blender for ice, coffee , milk, Splenda.

    I tried a variation on this method, which is brilliant, but I began to think about how to maximize the caffeine content, so I roughly ground a top notch coffee bean, pleced the grind in a tall mason jar or equivalent and then added near boiling water to the 3/4 mark. I then capped it off. A vacuum formed, which sealed it. After a week I strained off the coffee. WOW!!!! What a blast!!! Woo hoo. Felt like when I used to do a few lines, which I don't anymore. I gave that up 20 years ago, but this reminded me of it!!! To maximize the caffeine content you need to steep the grounds in hot water. I tell you true, this was not bitter or sour. It packed a real, tasty punch.

    From what I can see, the Espro Cold brew device works in essentially the same way as the Toddy. The taste should be very similar. Yes, you can use different ratios to get different results. Using a 1:10 ratio as you've described will produce less concentrated cold brew, so you'll need to adjust the amount of water / milk you add at the end (if any)

My question is, does that mean those places made a concentrate and then diluted their coldbrew as well into their kegs? I have always been super big into good tasting coffee, but I have never spent the time to understand it and thought now would be the time. Thanks in advance!

    Hey, not a stupid question at all. The ratio varies by shop, most on-tap setups are designed to be served straight over ice (undiluted) or charged with Nitro (NO2) for a Guiness-like head. In these situations, we brew at a 'ready-to-drink' ratio of 1:15 (1 part coffee to 15 parts water). More details in this article: www.sevenmiles.com.au/editorial/cold-brew-coffee-guide/

    After much experimenting, and suffering, I have learned-discovered, the best method for me. It’s this simple: place coffee grounds into your brewing container. I will work with particular measurements so adjust them to the amount of coffee ☕️ you desire to have to drink. My end goal is 3 cups, or 600ml. Add water once finished if you want to dilute. 1. Place 50g of grounds in container and add 500ml of cold water. ( remember, not filtered. Not tap. Not mineral. Water is critical in this method because you have 70% less acidity so everything is exposed, if you will ). Stir, I leave the stirrer in the container. Stir again in 30 minutes, and again in one hour. ( just do it a minimum of three times but on your last stir remove the stirrer. I use a fork. Don’t know why, just strange I guess ). Let sit for a minimum of five hours in total, or two hours after the last stir. 2. Gently pour the cold brew coffee into another vessel being careful to not also pour to a point where you begin to pour out grains with the water. NO FILTER IS USED. You will have about 400ml of coffee. You can stop here if you want, just add 200ml to get up to 600ml if you want. I use a 200ml cup size because it is easy and I Drink it black. If you add milk you might not want to add water. Let the coffee sit for roughly 12 hours, normally in the fridge. Then gently pour it into another vessel being careful to leave the dregs. Et vola, gravity and patience has filtered your coffee for you. 3. As I said, you can stop at that point, but I do not, because I’m a cheapskate. 😎. Immediately after I have initially poured the brewed coffee, leaving the grounds, I add another 300ml of water to them and stir. Stir again a few times and let sit for 10-12 hours, then pour, (same procedure), into another vessel. Yes it is a weak watery brew, but hey, I was going to add 200ml plain water anyway, so why not extract the remaining flavor! So you mix the two brews together and there you go. It’s very good coffee made with no heat or filters. Try it and let me know how you get on. And for you dear people in the good old US of A, looks like you will be doing some conversions 🤣😎😎😚

    I think it has more to do with the quality and type of coffee, and how strong you make it, than with whether or not you use a decanter with a hole in the bottom. You breeze by the coffee-to-water ratio and you don’t mention what type of coffee you use. By the way, when you let the coffee out through the bottom, don’t you use the grinds with all that bitter coffee that you don’t get when you poor it into the filter out of a pitcher?

    Leaving it out of the fridge means higher temperature and faster brewing, meaning more concentration if you leave it for the same amount of time. 20-24h sounds like too much for room-temp brewing, I expect bitter coffee on that timeframe, but IDK, maybe he uses very coarse grounds. As for concentration, some people are just lightweights. :) I also do 1:5 and treat it as ready-to-drink, so... you do you. It doesn't have to be diluted further just because someone on the Internet said to dilute it after brewing.

    I was in New Orleans and got hooked to a cold brew concentrate from a brand called N. O. Brew. I tried Starbucks and others but this was the only one that wasn't watery and tasted really yum. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm guessing this is mainly due to the ratio used. I'll try using your 1:5 ratio and see if i can replicate the strength to a extent. Thank you for sharing your method via this video. Appreciate it very much :)

    I got nowhere near 1:5. I was trying out ratios from 1:40 to 1:30. And I hit the sweet spot one day. Perfect! Smooth, yumm. But then I lost my notes and have not been able to replicate since. Please note, I got the powder from a local blender who also mixes Chicory. It is also a fine powder. I feel it is strong enough in these ratios but in your case you might want to get a source and experiment. Weight, take notes and keep trying until perfect.

    Depends on your fridge settings and degree of bacterial contamination of the coffee, on how well sealed you keep it / how often you reopen it etc. But even then 14 days(!) immediately sounded like too much of a stretch to me, I've never heard anyone recommend that much. Common wisdom is more like 7 days for cold-brew, and I think even that already depends on a 4 degrees fridge, good seal and so on. Really the best taste is when it's fresh, and if you don't make a fresh batch every 1-2 days, you could be in for surprises.

    You seem to be the right people to ask this: has anyone ever tested the extreme ends of cold brew ratios? Like 1:1 or 1:15? I’m curious to know what extraction looks like at those extremes. For example, could 500 ml of water even be capable of extracting everything you’d want from 500 g of coffee, given enough time? Would a 1:15 ratio mean that your coffee would more quickly overextract? I know that cold brew is relatively forgiving, and there are many ways to get to a good result, but I feel like cold/room temp brewing is the Wild West of coffee right now. There aren’t as many generally agreed upon guidelines to build a brew method as there are for traditional brewing methods. It’s also hard to test things for yourself, since you have to wait between 12-24 hours to taste the results of the variables you changed. Long comment, but I appreciate your video, and picked up some tips to try!

    Ben here....I certainly agree there's a lot of different opinions and recommendations out there. The 1:5 brew ratio is pretty close to the ratio used by Toddy themselves, which has been their recommendation as long as i've been using the system (since the late 90s). I have tried many different ratios over the years, with anything less than around 1:4, the yield becomes impractical (i.e. you barely get anything pouring out). I also get good results at 1:15 particularly with lighter roast coffees - but the end result is more of a ready-to-drink black coffee, not ideal for mixing with milk or other ingredients.

Just from observing the outcome of the brew, it looked a lot less than 2L. I wanna try making this for some friends and I don't know how much it'll serve. Thanks!!

    They have a completely different flavour. cold brew is lower-acidity, which gives the brew a 'chocolaty' smoothness. It also lasts a lot longer in the fridge before it starts tasting funky. Chilled hot coffee can taste good too if it's immediately chilled over ice & served straight away - but it produces a thinner & brighter (more acidic) iced coffee than cold brew. If you just let hot coffee cool over time, then it will quickly develop a sharp, oxidised taste that's not ideal.

    1:5 works well for may people because it allows flexibility with dilution of the end product. Another approach is to brew at a 'ready-to-drink' ratio of 1:15, this will have a similar taste & texture to pourover filter coffee, but is a less flexible than a concentrate.

    Buying coffee beans then grinding them fresh is always the way to go in any coffee making situation but if you don't have a grinder ( like me ) then you really can't do anything about it and just buy grounds according to your most used brew method ( pour over, espresso, syphon, etc.). There are a lot of affordable grinders out there though. Look for a burr grinder. Most coffee experts will recommend you that.. and a digital scale if you really want to be super calculated.

    Your grind size will most definitely affect the flavor especially with a cold brew since the grounds are sitting in the water for a long period of time. Typically, the finer the grind size, the shorter the brewing time required. I know at some grocery stores, they have commercial grinders available for customers to use. However if you plan on grinding your own beans often or have multiple brewing methods, i definitely recommend getting your own grinder.
