How to Prepare Cold Brew Coffee Concentrate [Vegan]
- Combine equal parts finely ground coffee and room-temperature filtered water in a french-press. My french-press is on the smaller side, so I used 2 cups water, 2 cups ground coffee ( note: yields about 10-12 oz of concentrate, which will make about 3-4 servings depending on your preference of strength). If you don’t have a french-press you can use a jar or canister. The advantage of using a french-press is that it has a built-in filtering mechanism.
- Stir. Let sit for 10 minutes, stir again.
- Cover the french press or jar with saran wrap or a tight fitting lid. If you’re using the french press, leave the plunger top off to the side since it will separate the grounds and the water. Put the coffee mixture in a pantry cupboard for 24 to 36 hours. Don’t stir it during this time.
- Filter the cold brew. Use the plunger top for the french press and carefully push down as far as it will go. Then rubber band a coffee filter over the mouth of a canning jar. Pour the cold brew through the coffee filter. It will take a while, so pour a little at a time.
- Dilute the concentrate to your liking – I like to pour it straight over ice cubes. Try it before you load it up with cream and sugar, you might decide you don’t need them at all!
