Ingredients:
- 1/5 pound dark roast coffee and chicory, medium ground (about 1 cup)
- 2 cups cold water
- Ice
- Milk
Steps:
- Put coffee in a nonreactive container, like a stainless-steel bowl. Add 1/4 cup water, stirring gently to wet the grounds, then add remaining water, agitating the grounds as little as possible. Cover and let steep at room temperature for 12 hours.
- Strain coffee concentrate through a medium sieve, then again through a fine-mesh sieve.
- To make iced coffee, fill a glass with ice, add ¼ cup coffee concentrate and ¾ to 1 cup milk, then stir. Concentrate will keep in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Rick's Notes:
- Grind matters* medium is best. Too fine takes a long time to filter.
- Different coffees brew cold differently. Find one that works (and note it here!)
- Brew at room temperature.
