Step-by-Step Guide to Making Cold Brew Coffee
-
Grind Your Coffee Beans:
- Start with fresh Yawn Brew Kenya Blue Coffee Beans. For the best flavor, grind them just before brewing.
- Use a coarse grind, similar to the texture of sea salt. This prevents over-extraction, which can make the coffee bitter.
-
Measure Your Coffee and Water:
- The ideal coffee-to-water ratio for cold brew is 1:4. For example, use 1 cup of coarsely ground coffee beans for every 4 cups of water.
- Adjust the ratio to your taste preference. If you like a stronger brew, use more coffee.
-
Combine Coffee and Water:
- In your cold brew coffee maker or a large jar, add the coarsely ground coffee.
- Pour in the filtered water, ensuring all the coffee grounds are saturated.
- Stir gently to combine.
-
Steep the Coffee:
- Cover the container and let it steep in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours. The longer the steeping time, the stronger the flavor.
- Stir the mixture occasionally to ensure even extraction.
-
Strain the Coffee:
- After steeping, use a coffee filter or cheesecloth to strain the coffee into a large pitcher or carafe.
- Make sure to remove all the coffee grounds to prevent any bitterness.
-
Serve Your Cold Brew:
- Fill a glass with ice and pour the cold brew over it.
- Customize your drink with milk, cream, sweeteners, or flavored syrups as desired.
-
Store the Cold Brew:
- Store any leftover cold brew in the refrigerator in an airtight container. It will stay fresh for up to a week.
Tips for the Perfect Cold Brew
- Use Fresh, High-Quality Beans: The quality of your coffee beans significantly impacts the flavor of your cold brew. Yawn Brew’s Kenya Blue Coffee Beans are a premium choice, offering a rich and smooth taste.

- Filtered Water: Using filtered water can enhance the clarity and purity of your cold brew.
- Steep Longer for Stronger Flavor: If you prefer a stronger cold brew, let the coffee steep for up to 24 hours.
- Experiment with Additives: Try adding flavors like vanilla, cinnamon, or chocolate to your cold brew for a unique twist.
