In cold brewing, coarse ground beans steep at room temperature for 12-24 hours, slowly drawing soluble compounds out of the grinds. The low temperature mitigates acidity for a naturally sweeter, smoother chilled coffee concentrate. Diluting this supercharged liquid with water or milk provides a mild pick-me-up with chocolate and caramel notes.
The long steep of cold brew teases out uncommon mocha, berry and vanilla-flavored molecules you won’t find in typical hot coffee. Cold brew aficionados praise this refreshing, lightly caffeinated beverage for its subtle, nuanced taste and easy drinkability straight or crafted into creative coffee cocktails.
