Actually, I never used the term "cold brew". It's an iced coffee, brewed using hot water.

I'm not patient enough to wait for a 12h cold brew ๐Ÿ˜‚. And also, the taste will be different. Cold brew will accentuate bitterness, while using the normal immersion filter method will extract a lot of sweetness from the bean.

 

Usually, I make around 300mL of iced coffee. Here's how I do it:

  1. Weigh 100g of ice cubes, put in the carafe, and store in the freezer.
  2. I use 18g of medium roasted arabica, and grind it medium coarse (similar to pour over size)
  3. Put the coffee ground in Hario Switch and add 200g of boiled water.
  4. Stir and let it brew for 5 minutes.
  5. Decant the coffee into the carafe (nr. 1).
  6. Give a good stirr until all the ice cube melt, and enjoy it directly or put in the fridge for later.

I hope it helps.

Finally tried this method, and I love it. However, my beans are too acidic, so 5 minutes immersion is too long. Gonna try again with shorter immersion time.

Then come to Jogja :D

The do sell it online, via Tokopedia (if you're in Indonesia).

The draw time is slower than regular v60, so more immersion time. Hence, the coffee is more (but not overly) extracted. It brings out various flavours in the cup.

Just bought it, haven't tried it yet. It was roasted medium, so filter method will be my choice. I usually using clever dripper, or Hario Mugen if not too lazy ๐Ÿ˜….

 

Maybe just my "traditional", but tbh I never enjoy the "alternative" post-harvest methods (i.e. honey, carbonated, etc). My heart will always to the traditional full- or semi-washed beans.

If you like to experimenting with different basket size, I recommend bottomless porta. I used the one that fits 24gr-basket, but able to swap to 18gr or 12gr basket.

Wait, let me count... one in the morning, one during coffee break, one in the afternoon, and one before sleep... That's four...

Other factors: coarser ground, longer pull, (maybe) unscaled machine...

My colleague brought me this dark roasted robusta. I never have a pleasent experience with that kind of roast. Any idea how should I enjoy it?

 

Found these beans from my local roastery. Both are from Sumatera island, although different area. Sumateran coffee are well known for their fruity notes. So I'm excited to taste them.

 

Found this video yesterday, and the concept is quite interesting. It's "radial infusion", which means the water infused to the coffee ground from the side, instead of poured over. The video says it will results higher extraction percentage. I do interested and already found a distributor in my country, but does it worth a buy?
