Classic Kauai Cold Brew

Cold brew is coffee made by steeping coarse ground coffee beans in cold water for 12-16 hours. The steeping process takes much longer than a typical cup of coffee prepared with a hot-water method such as drip, espresso, or French press because cold water requires more time to extract flavor from the grounds than hot water.

We recommend starting with a ratio of approximately 3/4 cup of coarse ground coffee for every 25 ounces (about 3 cups) of cold, filtered water. Here is everything you need to make the perfect cold brew pitcher at home.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pitcher
  • 2 cups coarse ground 100% Kauai Coffee Cold Brew or Estate Reserve Coffee
  • 8 cups cold, filtered water.

Instructions:

  1. Grind: Use 2 cups of coarsely ground coffee for 8 cups of water.
  2. Combine: Place the coffee grounds in a large jar or pitcher, and add cold, filtered water. Stir gently to ensure all the grounds are saturated.
  3. Steep: Cover the container and let the mixture steep in the refrigerator for 12 to 16 hours, depending on your desired strength.
  4. Strain: After steeping, strain the mixture using a fine mesh sieve or a coffee filter to remove the grounds.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Dilute the concentrated cold brew with water or milk to your preference, add ice cubes, and savor the smooth flavors of your homemade decaffeinated cold brew.
