In reply to Marsha Gibbons. Hi Marsha, yes you can heat it on low heat slowly to not impact the flavor.

In reply to BK. Hi BK, the coarser ground helps with extraction and makes it easier to filter for a smoother finish.

What if you don’t have the coarsely ground coffee and just use the store ground coffee in a large french press? Would that work or are there any major differences?

Hi Kate.
Thank you for your amazing informative presence here. I made the blueberry pie yesterday, and it was great. I also have loved putting nutmeg in (instead of cinnamon, but it is good both ways).

In reply to Jeff Snyder. Hi Jeff, thanks for sharing your method. I also enjoy cold brew, especially during the hot summer months.

Cold brew coffee is the best! I double your recipe, and use two cold brew bags which are 4″ x 6″. I also filter it again with paper coffee filters, and then add water to make it normal strength. There’s always a pitcher of cold brew in our refrigerator, ready to drink.

Thanks for your inclusion of a rough measure. I was going to weigh the beans, but the battery in my scale has died (not something that gets checked very often around here). I’ll try the right way next time, see how it compares.

Thanks for sharing! Ex barista here and I could not remember the ratio we used at the cafe for the life of me. This is a perfect recipe. Only tidbit I can add is I use my mesh filter on my drip machine to strain. So happy to have my cold brew again :)
