Cold brew coffee is a different way to get your caffeine fix this summer. The differences between cold brew and regular coffee is that you use cold water to brew the coffee instead of hot, and it is significantly less acidic, making it much easier for your stomach to handle. Even though you have to wait some time until the coffee is done, it’s very hands-off and stays good in your fridge for at least a week! Try it out!

As you would for normal coffee, all you need are coffee grounds and water. The difference is that you’ll be using cold water, and the coffee grounds should be ground from beans at home, because you need a slightly bigger ground for cold brew. This will come in handy later in the process when you strain out the grounds.
Method
- Combine 1 gallon of water with 100 grams of grounds in a large container
- Whisk the mixture together
- Leave it in the fridge for 24 hours
- Use a cheesecloth and strain the coffee into another container. Depending on how small your grounds are, you might have to do this more than once.
- For the final strain, put a paper towel over a mesh strainer to catch the last small bits.
- Enjoy!
