INTRODUCTION TO COLD BREWING

COLD BREWED COFFEE

The classic cold brew coffee brewing method uses coarsely
ground coffee steeped in cold water over a period of
12-24 hours. This no-heat brew method produces a smooth,
balanced avour that’s less bitter.

The KitchenAid Cold Brew Coffee Maker makes roughly
840mL of coffee concentrate.

To serve your cold brew beverage, we recommend using

COLD BREWED TEA

The Cold Brew Coffee Maker can also be used to make tea concentrate (approximately
960-1020mL). Cold brewed tea is steeped in cold water over a period of 6-12hours.

To serve your tea beverage, we recommend using a 1:7 tea to water ratio. This means
you add 1 part tea concentrate to 7 parts water.

Enjoy your cold brew tea the way you like by mixing concentrate with ice, water, milk,
or sweeteners.

TIP: The longer you steep and the more tea you use, the more bitter the tea
will become.

a 1:3 coffee to water/milk ratio. This means you add 1 part
coffee concentrate to 3 parts water or milk.
