The Magical Fruit

The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

I'm getting old and the morning coffee isn't doing anything for the crash after midday. It's also getting hot and I don't want an afternoon hot cup of coffee. I want to try making cold brew and it seems simple enough. Any tips?

So far I've seen 1:8 coffee to water recommended. 24 hours steeped and 2:1 water to concentrate. Sound ok? Any extra steps to make it twice as good?

Thanks for the tip about brewing time, went with ~16 hours and it was plenty strong. Probably would've hated it at 24hrs ๐Ÿ˜
