Cold Brew Preparation

Mix Coffee and Water

Steep the Coffee
Cover the pitcher or jar with a lid or plastic wrap, and let the coffee steep at room temperature or in the refrigerator for about 12 to 24 hours, depending on your desired strength.

Strain the Brew
After steeping, place a fine mesh strainer or a coffee filter over another pitcher or a bowl. Slowly pour the coffee mixture through the strainer to separate the liquid from the coffee grounds.
