Over the past decade, cold brew coffee, distinct for its long brewing time, lack of bitterness, and smooth taste, has surged in popularity. Originating in 17th-century Japan as Kyoto-style drip coffee, it evolved from Dutch traders' techniques and has since become an artistic brewing method, influencing global coffee culture. Cold brew's rise, marked by a 350% growth in the U.S. since 2017, owes to its smoothness, shelf stability, and adaptability, with major chains like Starbucks popularizing it and innovative methods continuing to emerge.

What to Know When Buying Cold Brew Coffee?

Cold Brew Coffee is a type of coffee made by steeping coarse grounds in cold water for 12-24 hours, creating a smooth, less acidic brew. A variant, nitro cold brew, involves infusing regular cold brew with nitrogen, resulting in a creamy texture and a foamy head. The strength and flavor of the cold brew are influenced by the coffee-to-water ratio, which is typically 1:8, and a coarser grind is recommended for optimal extraction. Cold brew coffee demonstrated health benefits, including prevention of hyperthermia in warm weather and improved physical performance in exercises with caffeine intake ranging from 3-9 mg/kg. According to a May 2020 study from Islamic Azad University in Iran, published in "Nutrition and Food Sciences Research," drinking 3 to 4 cups of cold brew coffee daily (300-400 mg of caffeine) may lower the risk of cancers, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease.

What Equipment Do I Need for Brewing Cold Brew Coffee at Home?

Brewing cold brew at home requires a quality burr grinder, a large mason jar, and a fine mesh sieve; the grinder ensures a consistent coarse grind for optimal extraction, the jar is an affordable brewing vessel, and the sieve strains the coffee effectively. With a flexible budget, your options extend to various cold brew coffee makers, bottles, or kegs for serving cold brew or nitro coffee.

What Are the Price Ranges for Cold Brew Coffee?

Cold brew coffee beans vary in price, typically ranging from $0.50 to $1.00 per serving, offering significant savings compared to cafe prices, which can be as high as $5 per cup. Organic cold brew coffee tends to cost about 20% to 30% more than non-organic options. At Powerbean Coffee, our specialty grade organic cold brew blend is priced at $20.44 for a 12 oz bag ($1.70 per oz) and $89.01 for a 5 lb bag ($0.35 per oz).

How Many Cups Can You Make from a Bag of Powerbean Cold Brew Coffee?

You can make approximately 34 standard 8 oz cups of cold brew from a 12 oz Powerbean Coffee bag. If two people are drinking two cups daily, a 12 oz bag would last about a week.

How To Brew The Best Cold Brew Coffee

To brew a cold brew coffee, start by combining 6 oz (170 grams) of coarse-ground coffee with 1.36 liters (around 46 ounces) of cold water. Let this sit for 12-24 hours, sticking to a 1:8 coffee-to-water ratio for a perfectly balanced flavor. If you're craving something stronger, try a 1:4 ratio for a rich cold brew concentrate. While it's okay to use any coffee, coarse grounds are best to extract the flavor. Don't be afraid to get creative by adding your twist, like a dash of vanilla or a sprinkle of cinnamon. The beauty of cold brew is its lower acidity and the way its caffeine kick varies with the roast level.

What is the Shelf Life of Cold Brew Coffee?

To keep your cold brew coffee fresh and just right, store it in an airtight container in the fridge for about 7-10 days.
