I start with a 3:1 ratio of water to grounds, maybe 4:1 by the time it mixes. I do mine in a mason jar, so I fill the jar to 500ml with grounds then I fill that up the rest of the way with water. Its a 1.75L jar so I figure about 1500ml water goes in as its mixing up with the grounds.
Let sit for a day in the fridge and stir or shake occasionally.
This makes a good concentrate, which I then mix with water to get the right taste.
How much would you put in a single serving, and how much would you dilute it?
When using the above concentrate, I'd go for a roughly 60/40 concentrate to cold water mixture.
I usually fill a 20oz yeti with ice, then add concentrate and water to fill it up.
Ohhh yeah that makes sense now.
I uh... Drank it straight and got kinda loopy a few times.
Woof. Cold brew has the highest caffeine content of any other brew method. You probably drank 4-5 times the amount of caffeine you're used to lol
Yeah. All I knew was that my throat hurt and it felt like I had boofed a JATO rocket
