Formel
## How to Calculate Cold Brew Ratio ### Common Ratios (Coffee : Water by weight) - **1:6** - Concentrate. Dilute 1:1 with water, milk, or ice before serving. Bold, strong flavor. - **1:12** - Ready to drink. No dilution needed. Balanced strength. - **1:15** - Light and refreshing. Good for iced coffee on hot days. ### Steeping Steep ground coffee in cold or room-temperature water for 12-24 hours. Most recipes recommend 16-18 hours. Longer steeping increases extraction but can also increase bitterness. ### Grind Size Use a coarse grind (similar to French press). Fine grinds will over-extract and make the cold brew harsh and gritty.

- 04Strain and dilute 1:1 for 8 servings of 240 mL each.
Häufig Gestellte Fragen
Can I steep cold brew at room temperature?
Yes. Room temperature extraction is faster and may produce a slightly different flavor profile than refrigerator steeping. Steep for 12-16 hours at room temperature, then strain and refrigerate. Both methods work well.
How long does cold brew keep?
Strained cold brew concentrate keeps for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator. Ready-to-drink strength keeps for about 1 week. The flavor gradually becomes stale and flat over time.
Is cold brew less acidic than hot coffee?
Cold brew is generally about 60-70% as acidic as hot-brewed coffee because cold water extracts fewer acidic compounds. This makes it gentler on the stomach for many people.
