What is the ideal steep time for cold brew?
- It actually depends on how strong you like your coffee! How long you steep your cold brew will greatly affect the depth and strength of your coffee. I recommend starting with 12 hours. If that’s not strong enough, you can let it go for up to 24.
How coarse should I grind my coffee beans for cold brew?
- When it comes to cold brew, coarser is better. If it’s too fine, the coffee will be cloudy. You can grind your coffee at the grocery store using the french press setting. If you grind your coffee at home, check your grinder’s setting and adjust it to the coarsest.
How long does cold brew coffee stay fresh?
- Cold brew will stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to a week.
