How to Cold Brew Coffee Using a French Press

Step 1

Add 4 Oz of coarse ground coffee to the bottom of the French Press. Pour 3 cups of cold or room temp water over the grounds gently. Gently stir to get all of the grounds wet. Let sit for 14-16 hours at room temperature. Press and strain into covered jar or vessel for storing your cold brew in your refrigerator. You now have a cold brew concentrate: Mix 1 part coffee with 1 part water when serving.

Step 2

Pour one part coffee concentrate into a glass and add 1 part water. Add desired amount of ice. Add cream, sugar, and stir. Or just enjoy the ridiculously smooth cold brewed coffee!

Step 3

Pour one part coffee into a coffee mug and add 1 part water. Place in microwave for 1-2 minutes, or until desired temperature is reached. Add cream, sugar, and stir. Or just enjoy the ridiculously smooth hot (cold brewed) coffee!
