Cold Brew Time! (self.coffee)

I'd love to make some cold brew now that summer is here!

Anybody had success making it in a french press?

What roast level do you prefer?

What grind seems to work best?

Feel free to drop your cold brew takes!

I make it in a French press. Dark roast, 30g per 500ml lukewarm water. Stir for uniform consistency. Refrigerate overnight (10 hours or so), enjoy in the morning!

Oh wow, I saw a recommendation of 6:1 water to bean. Followed by a 1:1 dilution.Your ratio is way less intense!

Do you water it down after, or drink it straight?

I do 6:1, makes a pretty strong concentrate. I drink it straight in little sips.

I do a 10:1 with no dilution. 12:1 is also pretty common. Way easier to deal with when you first wake up in the morning lol
