Cold Brew Hacks: How to Make Smooth and Refreshing Cold Brew at Home with Cordillera Coffee


Cold brew coffee is not just a trend; it's a refreshing and smooth way to enjoy your favorite drink, especially in the warm Philippine climate. With Cordillera Brew Coffee, you can easily make your own delicious cold brew at home. Here’s how!


What You’ll Need:


  • Cordillera Brew Coffee (your choice of blend)

  • Coarse coffee grinder (if you’re using whole beans)

  • Water

  • A large jar or pitcher

  • A fine mesh strainer or coffee filter


Step 1: Choose Your Coffee


Start by selecting your favorite Cordillera Brew Coffee blend. The Single Origin Benguet Arabica works beautifully for cold brew due to its smooth, sweet flavor. If you prefer a bolder taste, go for the Single Origin Ifugao Robusta for a rich and robust brew.


Step 2: Measure Your Ingredients


A good rule of thumb for cold brew is a 1:4 coffee-to-water ratio. For example, use 1 cup of coarsely ground coffee to 4 cups of cold or room temperature water. Adjust according to your taste preference—stronger or lighter!


Step 3: Combine and Steep


In a large jar or pitcher, combine the coarsely ground coffee and water. Stir gently to ensure all grounds are saturated. Cover the jar and let it steep in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours, depending on how strong you like your cold brew.


Step 4: Strain the Brew


Once steeped, it’s time to strain! Use a fine mesh strainer or coffee filter to separate the coffee grounds from the liquid. For an even smoother result, you can strain it twice.


Step 5: Serve and Enjoy


Pour your cold brew concentrate over ice, and dilute it with water or milk to your liking. Add your favorite sweetener or a splash of vanilla for extra flavor. If you want to take it up a notch, try serving it with coffee ice cubes made from leftover cold brew!


Final Thoughts


Cold brew coffee is an easy and delicious way to enjoy your Cordillera Brew Coffee. It’s perfect for those hot days or when you want a refreshing pick-me-up without the acidity of hot coffee. Ready to try it out? Visit our shop to grab your coffee and start brewing today!
