Ingredients
 

  • 2.5 cups (185 g) coffee beans alternative: coarse ground coffee
  • 4 cups (1 L) cold water

Instructions
 

  • Grind your coffee beans coarse.
  • Divide it between two 1-liter glass bottles, and fill each one with 500mL cold water. Mix them and store for 16 hours (12-18h) in your fridge.
  • The next day, filter the mixture first through a kitchen sieve. Filter it a second time through a very thin sieve. I used the barista coffee maker from Tchibo for the second filtration, who comes with a very thin sieve.
  • The cold brew coffee is best when enjoyed fresh, but you can store it up to one week in a glass bottle in your fridge.
  • The coffee is very intense, therefore dilute it 1:1 with water, milk, or ice before serving.

Notes

Let the coffee grounds dry and use them as a natural fertilizer for your plants.
