How are you preparing the cold brew Shane?

I bought a couple things:

I put the ground coffee into the gallon container and fill about 3/4 up with water and stir.
I leave it sit in room temp for about 24 hours.
I pour it through the gold filter.
Then fill up the rest of the container with milk.
Add 6 heaping spoons of sugar.
Stir, pour over ice.

It seems to work out about 3:1 coffee to milk for me, although many recipes call for 50/50.
You can also use water to cut it instead of milk if desired.
You don't even need to add sugar, it is pretty damn sweet naturally.
Mine tastes comparable to Starbucks Frap in the bottle IMO, but mine is a shade darker.

Finally got around to roasting again. Been too busy getting my yard and veggie garden ready for the season.
Small batches of each.

Papua New Guinea Baroida Estate at FC+.
Guatamala Burbon Finca San Diego Buena Vista at City+.
Sweet Marias French Roast Blend at Vienna.
El Salvador Majahual Tablon La Montana at City+

Hey Shane, any idea how much coffee you are putting in?

Not really, I know the mark on my grinder. I played with it until it tasted just right. If I had a scale I would weigh it. Maybe next time I will measure it.

Just received the 2.5# of Kona Earth I ordered last weekend, so I think that may be in my future soon.

Sorry to go off topic...

Didn't SM have a nice page that showed each level of roasting and talked about it. I can not find it.

Help, please?

Can't wait to try them.. I am all out for tomorrow... boo!

CigarSquid · 06-14-2012, 08:21 PM

So far, out of the 3 above, the Ethiopia is my favorite.

I did what they recommended on the bag.. first time I was able to taste what they described on there. Great source to get coffee, I think.
