Cold brew coffee offers a smoother, less acidic flavor profile compared to traditional hot-brewed coffee. The extended steeping time extracts different compounds from the coffee grounds, resulting in a naturally sweet and subtly nuanced taste.
The primary flavor characteristics are smoothness, low acidity, natural sweetness, and a rich, chocolatey or nutty body depending on the coffee bean origin. Citrus notes or fruity undertones can also be present but are less pronounced compared to hot brews. The slow extraction process avoids the bitter oils extracted by hot water, leading to a cleaner cup. Common flavor descriptors include chocolate, caramel, nuts, and subtle fruits.

Grind Size
Use a coarse grind, similar to that used for French press, to prevent over-extraction and bitterness.
Steeping Time
Steep for 12-24 hours at room temperature or in the refrigerator for optimal flavor extraction. Longer steeping times generally result in a stronger concentrate.
Water Quality
Use filtered water to avoid introducing unwanted flavors to your cold brew concentrate.
Filtration
Thoroughly filter the concentrate to remove sediment and ensure a smooth final product. Cheesecloth, coffee filters, or a fine-mesh sieve can be used.
Concentrate Dilution
Cold brew is typically prepared as a concentrate and diluted with water or milk to your desired strength. Start with a 1:1 ratio and adjust to taste.
