Welcome to yet another drink-making post. This time, as I said I would in the previous post, I made cold-brew coffee, and this time, it actually came out well. Making cold-brew is incredibly simple (I do give my thanks to some other online articles and YouTube videos), but there are a few things I did have to be wary of. This post, well, is mostly about those "after" things. Like last time, here's my recipe:

• 85g of ground coffee
• 2 cups of water

To make it, I took out the French press, poured in the two cups of water, and measured out 85 grams of coffee (which is a lot of coffee, if you ask me) and then the coffee (albeit more slowly because I didn't want the coffee to spill everywhere). The exessive amount of coffee is fine because I think that less caffeine will dissolve in the coffee at low temperatures so by adding more coffee you're essentially allowing more to dissolve and therefore it will actually... end up like coffee. Either way, by adding so much it does end up having a lot of caffeine... so beware. I might experiment with this more to get less caffeine, but whatever.

Making sure not to "press" the French press, I put the coffee in the fridge for a good 14 hours. It's optimal to do this at night so you can wake up to a nice cup of chilled coffee. Also try to get a fridge that has a space tall enough to let you put your French press if it is rather large.

Anyway, after the 14 hours, you can take out your coffee, and press the French press so that all the coffee grounds get filtered. However, don't drink the coffee as it is right now. The coffee is so caffeinated that it will taste acidic and bitter and awful. Instead, you want to have a drink with something like a 1:1 coffee-to-water ratio so you can have diluted coffee. It will taste much, much better, and will be refreshing, and all the other things people say about cold-brew. If you want milk and sugar, you can add those ~ I don't.

You can take the rest of your highly caffeinated drink and pour it in a pitcher for later. Just make sure to dilute it when you actually pour it out (or don't if you're that kind of person)!

Here's the result (I might have to work on my photography skills...):
