Cold brewed coffee

filtering cold brewed coffee to make coffee concentrate

Thanks to a cousin in law based abroad who forwarded to me a link on cold brewed coffee and how to make it.

It is so simple, cheap and easy to make but after I tried it, I was 100% converted. Hard to go back to the old way of preparing coffee.

For those interested, here is the procedure:

In a large jar put one third cup of ground roast coffee then add one cup of water. Cover and set aside for 8 to 24 hours. Strain to obtain coffee concentrate and place in a covered bottle or jar. Refrigerate

 To drink, mix one part coffee concentrate to one part very hot water. If you like, heat coffee to near boiling to have a hotter coffee.

To make iced coffee, just mix one part coffee concentrate to crushed ice of equal part. Add sugar or aromatics to taste.

Voila. very very good coffee that can put a smile to your face. Magandang umaga!
