What is Cold Brew?

Cold brew refers to the process of preparing the coffee, not the temperature of the final product. After the coffee beans are ground, they are brewed with water at room temperature for approximately 18 hours or longer. This opens the doors to a wonderful cold coffee adventure that is softer, less acidic and higher in caffeine.

QUESTIONS YOU ARE CURIOUS ABOUT

Is Cold Brew Different from Iced Coffee?

Yes! Iced coffee, regardless of whether it is espresso-based or filtered, is brewed with hot water and served chilled with ice.

The thing to consider here is that when you add ice to a coffee prepared to be drunk hot, you risk experiencing a coffee that is too watery.

Cold brew is brewed with coarsely ground coffee beans by soaking them in room temperature water for 12 hours or more. Many of those who prefer cold brew instead of classic iced coffees say that it is intensely delicious but easier to drink. Because coffees brewed with cold water contain 67% less acidity than those brewed with hot water, which makes cold brewed coffee a great alternative for those who are sensitive to acidic drinks.

Why is Cold Brew Expensive?

Unlike hot coffee, which pours into your cup in a few minutes, brewing cold brew requires more time, effort and preparation.

Cold Brew is more costly and therefore more expensive for businesses than ordinary coffees, due to the long time required for preparation, the space it occupies, and the relatively large amount of coffee used.

Does Cold Brew Contain More Caffeine Than Other Coffees?

It depends. Probably yes.

It is said that more caffeine is dissolved when you brew coffee with hot water, but in cold brew, the coffee is one or two times more concentrated than water. This means stronger coffee than using the traditional coffee-to-water ratio.

Therefore, cold brew may contain more caffeine because it contains more coffee than other brews.
