Cold Brew CoffeeIt is Cold Brew Coffee. Put the ground coffee powder into room-temperature water, soak and extract for 12 hours, then filter out the coffee grounds; the resulting coffee liquid is cold brew coffee. Compared with regular hot-brewed coffee, its coffee flavor is noticeably stronger, it is less bitter, and the mouthfeel becomes smoother.
 
It should be noted that the longer cold brew coffee sits, the stronger its fermented taste becomes, so the flavor you drink each day will also differ. Front Street recommends drinking it within 3-4 days.

  
This kind of coffee sounds quite labor-intensive, but it is actually much simpler to make than imagined. You can understand it this way: put coffee grounds in cold water - place in the refrigerator to soak overnight - filter out the coffee grounds - done. The principle is actually similar to ice drip coffee, except that cold brew coffee is extracted with cold water over a long period, and because it is low-temperature extraction, only small molecules such as fruit acids and floral aromas are dissolved.

Perhaps you may ask, "For making cold brew coffee, what other coffee beans are recommended?"
I would recommend everyone try washed or specially processed beans.
The reason is simple: the resulting cold brew coffee has greater distinctiveness and better sweetness~

Cold brew coffee is a very easy-to-master brewing method. The Front Street Butterfly cold brew coffee is made based on 50 grams of coffee grounds, with the coffee grounds ground to a coarseness of 85% passing through a No. 20 standard sieve. Put the coffee grounds into a glass bottle, then add 400 milliliters of room-temperature water and 200 grams of hard ice cubes (a total ice-water mixture of 600 grams), with a coffee-to-water ratio of 1:12. Then use a stirring rod to stir the coffee grounds and water evenly, seal, and place in a refrigerated refrigerator.

After placing it in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours, use filter paper to filter out the coffee grounds and obtain a clean coffee liquid. Then use a clean sealed bottle to store the coffee liquid and refrigerate it for about another 4 hours before drinking.
