Cold Brew Coffee

Most cold brew recipes use medium-dark or dark roasts because the long extraction emphasizes sweetness and chocolate notes. Light-roast cold brew is also popular for a brighter, fruit-forward style.

Coarse grind is standard. It produces a clean cup with full immersion methods like the Toddy or French press. Many roasters list a cold brew grind option on the product page.

Brewed cold brew concentrate keeps in the fridge for up to two weeks when sealed. Whole bean coffee for cold brew should still be brewed within 30 days of roast.
