Cold brew doesn't suck if you like it. I just abhor it. Regardless, give this a try if keen to shake things up a bit!

    LISTEN! Cold Brew doesn't suck if you like it! I just really, really can't stand it. Sorry if I ruffled feathers! It's fine to enjoy musty coffee filtered through sweaty socks with no perceived acidity or really anything that makes coffee interesting. ha! Ok. That's enough trolling. Love you all- cold brew or iced coffee. Hugs and kisses.

    Just made it in written form for myself, might as well share :) Ingredients: 20g coffee, ground at around 20/40 on a Wilfa Svart Uniform grinder 300g water (240g at 93C° for brewing, 60g for ice) Steps: Bloom 20g coffee with 60g water for 1 minute. Pour water up to 150g, wait for 45 seconds. At 1:45, pour up to 240g water. Give a gentle swirl to flatten the bed. Let it drain completely. Add 60g of ice to the brewed coffee, stir until cooled to 5-10°C. Pour the cooled coffee over a cup of ice. Enjoy!

    Just brew entirely with clean hot water and place the carafe into an ice bath afterwards. Use a milk frother to speed up the cooling process. It works perfectly. Why dilute your coffee with water that sat in your freezer when you can use ice only for the heat transfer?

    One of my first drinks in the specialty coffee space was a cold brew and I was surprised at how "boring" the cup was. After I started brewing myself I came to the same conclusion, ofc it tastes bland at such a low extraction. Thank you for testing the variables for us, now that my hunch is backed by the Lance-science I'm gonna do it for sure.

    Totally agree, from the get go I never agreed with brewing onto the ice. A piping hot fresh brew will transfer heat to the environment very quickly due to sheer temperature differences. Relying on ice to cool the first 10 degrees or so saves very little time and adds a lot of unnecessary water.

I find my hot coffee does not hold well in those conditions where I need it to last another 4 to 5 hours, and I don't have the time in the morning to wait for it to chill to drinkable temperatures and then consume it on top of that.

Not the first to mention this, but I keep thinking that a stronger, more extracted brew to add to the ice could be made with an immersion method rather than a pour over: AeroPress, French Press, Clever Dripper, etc. That might solve the ‘not enough water to fully extract’ issue. I’ve also been pulling espresso shots into ice, which works well for me, but I do like variety…. Cheers and Thanks

The temperature of environment inside the tumbler is really cold, and with big, solid chunks of ice under there would definitely chill the coffee faster and better!

    Focus on extraction, not time, for better reliability and quality control. Immersion brews are equilibrium extraction, and if conditions are not consistent or optimal then brew quality will be more variable too. Allow enough time for equilibrium in your conditions…not just “X hours and it’s done”. How long is long enough? Get a tds meter and start monitoring, but once it stabilises anywhere between 22-24% that’s it, you’re done, and leaving it longer won’t extract anything more from it. You’ll be surprised at just how fast you get to 90-95% of extraction potential, even in sub-optimal conditions…but that remaining bit makes a big difference and is what takes most of the time to extract.

    If you’re gonna wait till after brewing to add the ice, you may as well pour the coffee between two carafes at a height a couple times. At high temperatures, each of those pours can decrease temperature by 5F or more. Do 5 pours, then add ice.

    Most interesting, Lance. I've been using a NextLevel LVL-10 "zero bypass" brewer (like a Tricolate but larger, y'all) for my iced coffee, and in fact 1:2 ice to brew water ratio I employ is pretty close to what's recommended as a "dilute" for this device even making hot coffee. Still your approach here is worth playing and experimenting (is there a difference?) with. Esp as I'm batch brewing and refrigerating in brim-filled air-tight containers rather than drinking immediately. (Maybe I don't need to chill as much as I think I do?) Current recipe: Coffee: 50g Ice: 280g Brew water: 560g Two blooms of 90g then 70g Two pours of 200g each Medium grind like for Chemex. Stir both blooms, 2nd more vigorously, with a WDT tool. Drop temp 3 to 5 degrees F for 2nd pour, which I begin with enough water still covering the coffee bed that it remains composed. (I don't want much if any agitation after the blooms. As you noted in your review of this device, it's allowing the coffee bed itself to act as a sort of filter. I suspect keeping fines locked in the bed is part of what allows this brewer to use longer contact times without producing bitterness.)

    How would you recommend getting a taste for acidity in coffee? I really do not enjoy light roasts especially for espresso, and I do enjoy cold brew. What is the best way to get acclimated to higher acidity levels and fruitiness in coffee? Also, how do you learn with espresso whether a shot is under extracted vs just acidic?

    Most household freezers are around 0 degrees Fahrenheit (Im in usa) but you can usually get coffin freezers (like the kind people keep in the basement) down to -40 Fahrenheit. This means colder ice and less dilution :) Or you can do what I do, brew and then dump into a frozen pyrex measuring cup (they don't break, promise) and then pour over ice. Minimal dilution and quite easy.

    Funny I did this just today by accident upon realizing I only have 30g of ice left, so I use more brew water, and to help the cooling process I put my cup / 2nd decanter in the freezer as well, it does wonders! What works for me is actually using distilled water as my ice. It works much better than using my mineralized brew water for some reason, less bitterness and astringency, wayy smoother. Also larger and clearer ice is FANTASTIC for iced coffee. At my house, we happen to have 2 fridges, 1 of the model is low tier ancient model so it doesn't really have the best freezer, but turns it's a blessing in disguise as it takes longer to freeze the ice and in turns it accidentally creates clearer ice.
