How To Use the Delter Cold Drip Coffee Maker

[@rhysevans2272]

Thanks for the video guys, and for sending the Delter Cold Drip to me so fast, ordered late on Sunday night, received early Tuesday morning!

[@AlternativeBrewing]

Hope you enjoy it!

Hi which paper filters can I order from your website to put on top of the coffee grounds? Thank you.

[@AlternativeBrewing]

these will work just fine 👌 alternativebrewing.com.au/products/delter-micro-filters-300-pack

This product is so good! Just wondering instead of a paper filter could you use an Able brewing disk? if so which one?

[@AlternativeBrewing]

Do you mean an Able Disk filter instead of the paper filter? - you could yes as it will fit the top no worries but we usually recommend not using a Metal disc filter for the dispersion of water as it's not always as even or consistent as a paper filter. As for the other filter below - this comes standard on the Delter Cold Drip and I couldn't see any benefits of replacing the current metal filter with another.

Are extra water trays available in glass rather than plastic?

[@AlternativeBrewing]

Hi Sue, no there's no glass trays sorry

@@AlternativeBrewingTy. Is this unit available on Amazon for US market?

[@joshpharding]

Thanks for this video! Is there a ratio required to dilute the strength of having it black? Or can you simply pour and drink without blowing you’re head of?

[@AlternativeBrewing]

I would say it's best enjoyed at a very low ratio of extra water to the original brewed coffee - perhaps just over ice - except I do find, personally, the flavour doesn't always match the caffeine effect and it could be weak and still blow my head off 😂

What is the difference between this and traditional cold brew you’d leave infusing in your fridge?

I have never tasted cold drip coffee - how does it taste compared to coffee made with the normal Delter ?

[@AlternativeBrewing]

I tastes like coffee, but has a significant less bitterness and brightness to it. Much more rounded, slick mouthfeel, if drunk straight - or can dilute to your preferred tastes. Hot brew vs Cold Brew - they're oranges and apples really - Cold Brew is great on a hot day - but I'll drink hot coffee whenever

[@andreaelizabeth5804]

Thanks for the tips. What size are the filter papers that you are using? Thanks.

[@AlternativeBrewing]

The Delter Paper filters here are perfect alternativebrewing.com.au/product/delter-micro-filters-300-pack/ But any other regular paper filter about the same size will just sit on top No worries

[@andreaelizabeth5804]

@@AlternativeBrewing thanks a lot. Can't wait to try it out on xmas day!

[@spencerwilson1886]

If i brew this overnight and leave it in the fridge, it will probably drip a few insignificant bitter drops of coffee over the additional hopefully 4-6 hours. But will it significantly stain and ruin the filter? How long until it inevitably retains that old stale coffee smell?

[@AlternativeBrewing]

I would say no, it won't do this.

[@fahminordin4658]

Awesome tips! Quick question, roughly how many ml of water for the pre-infusion phase?

[@AlternativeBrewing]

Twice as much water to coffee is the Golden rule for Pre-infusion 👍 this is becuase coffee grounds will soak about approximately twice their own weight in water every time you brew.

[@fahminordin4658]

[@ashleymurphy3715]

Any suggestions on a manual grinder to pair with this? The large dose is throwing me a bit, I don't want to adjust my espresso grinder so am looking for something specifically for this + delter press.

[@AlternativeBrewing]

You'll want this one - it has the best volumes in the hopper 👉 alternativebrewing.com.au/product/hario-skerton-ceramic-coffee-grinder/

[@wasrio1403]

Unless you put this in the fridge its not a pure cold drip, other systems allow for ice.

[@AlternativeBrewing]

This allows for ice 👌 Just smaller cubes I suppose

[@wasrio1403]

@@AlternativeBrewing yeah I guess but it needs improvement. It's clearly not designed for ice. Wouldn't be hard to correct though.

[@lennywinbox1734]

bunch of poppycock! how does the coffee taste? i would never buy one of those

[@AlternativeBrewing]

It taste like Cold Drip Coffee - depending in the coffee you use, I guess it could vary widely. - So I'm suggesting it doesn't change the flavour of the coffee to any great degree more ,than other Cold Drip Towers. But it certainly takes the hassle out of making a coffee on one, consistently much easier 👍
