You’ve probably seen an icy cup of cold brew on
Instagram, but we are here to give you the low-down.
Simplied.
Traditionally, cold brew is coffee that has been
steeped for a long period of time in cold water—
usually 12 to 24 hours. Because the coffee beans
never come in contact with heat, the coffee oils
don’t react with boiling water and don’t develop
that acidic, bitter coffee tang. The result is a richer
cup of joe with a smoother nish that’s easy on your
digestive system.
Brewing your coffee with cold water results in 65-
70% less acid than hot drip coffee or espresso, per
part. And if you’re looking for a buzz, cold brew also
often has more caffeine than regular coffee. Thank
you cold brew!
Cold brew is iced coffee’s
more talented and better
looking cousin—it’s not
really a fair comparison but
we’re going there anyway.
Sorry iced coffee!
