400 Grams to 2000 Milliliters, so the ratio is 1:5, ONE part coarse coffee grinds to FIVE parts water. Let it brew for 20-24 hours the filter it and store the coffee for up to 14 days (2 weeks). This is how I learn, by writing the thing that I learned.
@paperclipbike4 жыл бұрын
I get so confused by ratios: if you have 400 g of coffee and 2000 ml of water, then you have a total of 2400 g of ingredients. 400 / 2400 is 1/6. So the ratio kind of makes sense in that you have 1 part (i.e. 1 sixth) coffee grinds PLUS 5 parts (5 sixths) water (for a total of 6 parts). The other way of putting is to say 200 g per litre in this example - then if you know how much coffee concentrate you want to produce, you know how much coffee you need to grind.

@@paperclipbike ((let me see if I can help. If you consider a ratio as a fraction that's confusing. A fraction is not the same as a ratio. A fraction is an amount. A ratio is a proportion, a relationship. Of course they are related (haha) but they are different ways of expressing how two quantities compared to each other. They both use the language of numbers,of course. --- So the ratio here is 1 to 5 You end up with 6 grams. The coffee is a fraction of 1/6 of the whole. When you weigh the composed of one gram of coffee and 5 grams of water you will work out at 6 grams. When you weigh out the individual parts you have one gram of coffee and 6 grams of water. It's statistics. it's like what Trump demonstrated he didn't understand about the covid statistics during a recent interview. You have to look at what the second number refers to. In the fraction the 2nd number refers to the weight of the mixture. In the ratio of the second number refers to the weight of the water alone.

Just to point out a couple of, what I think is, typos (I normally wouldn't be nit picking, but since you made the effort to clarify this for someone who is trying to learn, I thought I should point out what might be a bit confusing): "So the ratio here is 1 to 5" - you should add the unit "grams" after both 1 and 5 if you later want to use a unit in the conclusion "You end up with 6 grams." ("1 to 5" without units doesn't say anything about how much the totality will weigh.) Second thing would be "When you weigh out the individual parts you have one gram of coffee and 6 grams of water." - I'm sure you meant to write "[...] and 5 grams of water".

Hey I hope this isn't a stupid question! So before this whole self isolation quarantine I used to buy a lot of coldbrew on tap at a few local places here in Florida. My question is, does that mean those places made a concentrate and then diluted their coldbrew as well into their kegs? I have always been super big into good tasting coffee, but I have never spent the time to understand it and thought now would be the time. Thanks in advance!

Hey, not a stupid question at all. The ratio varies by shop, most on-tap setups are designed to be served straight over ice (undiluted) or charged with Nitro (NO2) for a Guiness-like head. In these situations, we brew at a 'ready-to-drink' ratio of 1:15 (1 part coffee to 15 parts water). More details in this article: www.sevenmiles.com.au/editorial/cold-brew-coffee-guide/

Question: I've never been a coffee drinker, so I am completely ignorant on coffee. I've just started making cold brew to mix with other drinks. I've noticed a mud like consistency settling to the bottom. Is that normal? Do most people drink that? Or filter it out? It seems like it will mix fine if shaken or stirred, but I've tried using a standard paper coffee filter and that filters it out. I'm only using it as a mix in protein shakes, so I don't care about the consistency. I just don't want to drink it if it is bad for me.

depends on your perspective of 'better', however it's worth noting, brewing coffee at different temperature drastically changes the outcome of the final flavour. Both Pour over & French Press inherently use hot water to brew and temperature will change how fast or 'violently' the brewing process is. Where brewing by cold process is a much slower and more gentle process so some compounds in coffee simply won't extract or minimal amounts will thereby changing the final flavour in comparison.

@SevenMilesCoffeeRoasters4 жыл бұрын
They have a completely different flavour. cold brew is lower-acidity, which gives the brew a 'chocolaty' smoothness. It also lasts a lot longer in the fridge before it starts tasting funky. Chilled hot coffee can taste good too if it's immediately chilled over ice & served straight away - but it produces a thinner & brighter (more acidic) iced coffee than cold brew. If you just let hot coffee cool over time, then it will quickly develop a sharp, oxidised taste that's not ideal.

Thanks for the replies! When I first got my Toddy, I followed the instructions. Using 16oz and grinding the beans. But then not long into it, I just switched to regular 13oz ground coffee, different brands and I've never had a grinder. Excellent results every single time for 28 years. When I first started having an issue last year, I thought it might be the older of my two plastic brewers, yes. I got a new one gratefully and also switched from tap water (yes I used tap for all those years, in two different States) to buying bottled water. Had a great 8 weeks and thought I solved the problem. Then, the funky issue returned slowly but surely. I quit for 5 months--very disheartening. Just decided to try again, first 2 weeks were hopeful; this last batch, back to the funky un-coffee coffee. My first brewer I had for 13 years and it did get the coffee coloration, so did the other 2 I got later on. No issues ever with that. Sorry for long reply; I just mourn why this has happened..is it my taste has changed.. everything else tastes the same. I gotta figure this out.. cold Brew is the drink of the gods, at least to me!

Oh, so you don't just let it brew in the fridge? I think my concern about leaving it on the counter, at room temp, in a semi-open container (not airtight), would be microbial contamination. I have just been letting it sit maybe for an hour on the counter and then moving it to the fridge to brew overnight. I seem to be getting decent results - the coffee has a clear, crisp taste by the next morning. I am also using a finer grind because I want a more intense flavour, I found the coarser grind yielded a very weak coffee, and I was using so much more coffee to try and compensate for it. I would use a grind closer to a medium (but slightly finer) grind setting, but each to their own. Great video either way! Thanks!
@Waghabond3 жыл бұрын
Theres no way it gets contaminated so easily. The whole brew process is anaerobic and there is no bacterial that can get a hold over night (or even up to like 3-4 days). The most noticeable microbial activity that could happen in such a short time is maybe some lactic fermentation at around the 2 day mark (and thats actually a good thing :P). So dont worry about anything like that :), of course continue to do the fridge method if you prefer the flavour, but i'd recommend trying to leave it out and see what you think!

First the recipe: 2 cups French roast coffee, 2 cups medium roast coffee and one cup coffee and chicory, 8 cups water. The process uses the basic toddy container and fiber filter however we place the fiber filter into the center of a paper basket filter ala Mr Coffee type and press both into the bottom of the Toddy. Put the rubber plug into Toddy. Add 4 cups filtered water, stir, the add 4 more cups water. Cover and brew for 24 hours. Forgot, after draining the first batch of coffee I add 4 cups of filtered water to grounds and brew for 12 hours resulting in. Second brew that is put into a separate Toddy carafe. Both are store in the frig. I make my first ice coffee in the morning with the first drip and the second a few hours later. I use a blender for ice, coffee , milk, Splenda.

You seem to be the right people to ask this: has anyone ever tested the extreme ends of cold brew ratios? Like 1:1 or 1:15? I’m curious to know what extraction looks like at those extremes. For example, could 500 ml of water even be capable of extracting everything you’d want from 500 g of coffee, given enough time? Would a 1:15 ratio mean that your coffee would more quickly overextract? I know that cold brew is relatively forgiving, and there are many ways to get to a good result, but I feel like cold/room temp brewing is the Wild West of coffee right now. There aren’t as many generally agreed upon guidelines to build a brew method as there are for traditional brewing methods. It’s also hard to test things for yourself, since you have to wait between 12-24 hours to taste the results of the variables you changed. Long comment, but I appreciate your video, and picked up some tips to try!

Ben here....I certainly agree there's a lot of different opinions and recommendations out there. The 1:5 brew ratio is pretty close to the ratio used by Toddy themselves, which has been their recommendation as long as i've been using the system (since the late 90s). I have tried many different ratios over the years, with anything less than around 1:4, the yield becomes impractical (i.e. you barely get anything pouring out). I also get good results at 1:15 particularly with lighter roast coffees - but the end result is more of a ready-to-drink black coffee, not ideal for mixing with milk or other ingredients. I go into a little more detail in this blog post: www.sevenmiles.com.au/editorial/cold-brew-coffee-guide/

Idk if I will get an answer, as this vid I 2 years old, but I'm going to ask anyway! From other videos I've watched about making cold brew, I thought you were supposed to put the cold brew in the fridge (during brew time) to avoid bacteria causing food borne illness. In your opinion/experience, is that not necessary? I mean you use your method and drink the cold brew, so you're obviously not getting sick. I'm just curious why some methods insist on refrigeration. I wonder if it's region, culture, or just the general difference in any given country's food standards, that change the way we think about stuff like that? Also, I've heard leaving the coffee in the water longer than 8 hours, leads to a bitter tasting brew. But that seems untrue because, again, you're drinking it, and I'm positive you'd notice that! I wish I had the means to just set up a bunch of different methods to test, and then I wouldn't ask :p Thanks in advance, if anyone takes the time to answer! :D

To your first thought, yes! Putting it into a fridge I'd recommend; but as its coffee & water it will not 'stale' or go bad that quickly. I honestly think most do it for the thought of keeping others from messing with or any airborne particles collecting in the vessel. I'd guess a human-habit. Also I'd theorise that a stable temperature lends itself to a stable extraction, where we certainly do notice in the art of espresso extraction a single degree will make a vast difference to final flavour from one espresso to another. 24hr extraction is definitely a weird thought, BUT thankfully with no pressure being added and no 'hot water' exciting the chemical breakdown of compounds within the coffee, only the *very* soluble particulates are extracted and it does lends itself to a tasty brew. Also the addition of so much water would very much dilute the bitter compounds if any were extracted :) Thanks for your question! Josh

Hi, I like your video, I tried to make according to your recipe, but my coffee went bad (sour) after 3 days. what could be the problem? Maybe this recipe doesn't work if you have something other than coffee in the fridge? I kept it in a closed jar and it messed up anyway: ((
@d0nj032 жыл бұрын
Depends on your fridge settings and degree of bacterial contamination of the coffee, on how well sealed you keep it / how often you reopen it etc. But even then 14 days(!) immediately sounded like too much of a stretch to me, I've never heard anyone recommend that much. Common wisdom is more like 7 days for cold-brew, and I think even that already depends on a 4 degrees fridge, good seal and so on. Really the best taste is when it's fresh, and if you don't make a fresh batch every 1-2 days, you could be in for surprises.

After much experimenting, and suffering, I have learned-discovered, the best method for me. It’s this simple: place coffee grounds into your brewing container. I will work with particular measurements so adjust them to the amount of coffee ☕️ you desire to have to drink. My end goal is 3 cups, or 600ml. Add water once finished if you want to dilute. 1. Place 50g of grounds in container and add 500ml of cold water. ( remember, not filtered. Not tap. Not mineral. Water is critical in this method because you have 70% less acidity so everything is exposed, if you will ). Stir, I leave the stirrer in the container. Stir again in 30 minutes, and again in one hour. ( just do it a minimum of three times but on your last stir remove the stirrer. I use a fork. Don’t know why, just strange I guess ). Let sit for a minimum of five hours in total, or two hours after the last stir. 2. Gently pour the cold brew coffee into another vessel being careful to not also pour to a point where you begin to pour out grains with the water. NO FILTER IS USED. You will have about 400ml of coffee. You can stop here if you want, just add 200ml to get up to 600ml if you want. I use a 200ml cup size because it is easy and I Drink it black. If you add milk you might not want to add water. Let the coffee sit for roughly 12 hours, normally in the fridge. Then gently pour it into another vessel being careful to leave the dregs. Et vola, gravity and patience has filtered your coffee for you. 3. As I said, you can stop at that point, but I do not, because I’m a cheapskate. 😎. Immediately after I have initially poured the brewed coffee, leaving the grounds, I add another 300ml of water to them and stir. Stir again a few times and let sit for 10-12 hours, then pour, (same procedure), into another vessel. Yes it is a weak watery brew, but hey, I was going to add 200ml plain water anyway, so why not extract the remaining flavor! So you mix the two brews together and there you go. It’s very good coffee made with no heat or filters. Try it and let me know how you get on. And for you dear people in the good old US of A, looks like you will be doing some conversions 🤣😎😎😚

Skip the cold brew and make iced coffee folks. 200g ice and 300g of hot water thru 35g of coffee will give you coffee that’s much more flavorful than cold brew. I did cold brew for years and don’t miss that dull flavor at all.

@benjaminogle114 жыл бұрын
Carlos Rios Vega there are 2 ways to do it. If you’re doing pour over - The simplest way is to weight out 200g of ice and drop in the bottom of your carafe. You slightly alter the golden ratio to account for this. Use 35g coffee for 500g of water. Since you’ve got 200g ice, you want to run enough hot water thru the coffee to get the other 300g in the carafe. The other way is to buy something like the Coldwave Chiller that is capable of instantly dropping the temps of hot liquids. In this method you’d brew your regular hot coffee with the 30g coffee to 500g water ratio and then use the chiller to immediately drop temp.

I use a container that infused the coffee grounds through a fine mesh filter that sits in the water. I typically use a 1 part ground to 4-5 part water ratio. I let it sit for 24 hours in the fridge and then filter it to remove the coffee “sludge”. Does leaving the mixture outside of the fridge make it a concentrate? I just drank mine straight because I felt like it was too diluted when I added water.
@d0nj032 жыл бұрын
Leaving it out of the fridge means higher temperature and faster brewing, meaning more concentration if you leave it for the same amount of time. 20-24h sounds like too much for room-temp brewing, I expect bitter coffee on that timeframe, but IDK, maybe he uses very coarse grounds. As for concentration, some people are just lightweights. :) I also do 1:5 and treat it as ready-to-drink, so... you do you. It doesn't have to be diluted further just because someone on the Internet said to dilute it after brewing.

The toddy takes up counter space, is messy, and cleaning the filter and cloth is time consuming. My local bagel place uses this huge Toddy contraption with a giant bucket. At that scale, I think the system is great. For personal use, I'll stick with my Tube. www.amazon.com/dp/B071WXSCSC/ref=psdc_13397451_t2_B01HIT0VMW?th=1
