Brewing Tips

Use coarse grind similar to French press avoiding fine particles creating muddy results. Coffee to water ratio typically 1:4 to 1:8 depending on desired concentrate strength. Room temperature brewing extracts faster than refrigerated but refrigeration improves shelf life. Strain thoroughly using paper filters for cleanest results. Dilute concentrate 1:1 or 1:2 with water milk or over ice before drinking. Store concentrate in sealed container refrigerated for up to two weeks.
