When I make cold brew I tend to use a filter bag, makes cleanup a lot easier. While I would love to go on a tangent about sourcing local specialty coffee & grinding just to your dose to keep your beans fresh, those don’t matter quite as much for cold brew as they do for espresso & pour over. What really matters is if you enjoy the end result, so if there’s anything that you don’t particularly enjoy about your cold brew you can determine the root cause & adjust accordingly.

+1 for a filter bag, it’s made it so much easier. Also don’t forget to dilute it! That’s basically coffee concentrate right there lol
I’m hoping to overdose on caffeine
Any recommendations on filters or filter bags? I’ve only got drip coffee filters which certainly won’t do the trick.
