Equipment

  • Cold Drip Brewer
  • Coffee grinder
  • Glass Carafe
  • Filter Papers
  • scale
  • Measuring spoon

Ingredients
  

Coffee Base

  • 160 g dark roast coffee coarsely ground
  • 700 ml cold filtered water
  • Ice cubes optional

Instructions
 

  • Grind dark roast beans coarsely to control extraction and avoid bitterness. Aim for an even, rough texture.
  • Place filter and add grounds evenly into the brewing chamber. Keep the surface level without pressing.
  • Add cold water and optional ice to the top chamber. This keeps extraction slow and balanced.
  • Set drip rate to one drop per second. Consistency ensures a smooth, full-bodied result.
  • Allow dripping for 8 to 12 hours. The coffee should appear dark, clear, and slightly syrupy.
  • Serve over ice or mix with milk for a creamy finish. Expect bold flavor with minimal bitterness.

Notes

Adjust grind size for texture control; coarser creates smoother coffee, finer increases strength. Keep drip rate steady to avoid harsh notes. Chill immediately after brewing and store up to three days. Add vanilla or spices for flavor variation. Handle setup carefully to maintain even extraction.
