Cold brew is the most forgiving method there is: no timers, no technique, just time. Calima is our dedicated cold brew blend — chocolatey and nutty with a crisp finish that stays smooth over ice for days.
What you need
- Calima, coarse grind
- A jar or cold brew maker
- Filtered water
Steps
- Combine coffee and water at a 1:8 ratio.
- Steep 16 hours in the fridge.
- Strain and serve over ice; dilute to taste.
A coarse grind is the one thing worth getting right — too fine and the brew turns muddy and over-extracted. What you strain off is a concentrate, so start by cutting it half and half with water or milk and adjust from there. It keeps about two weeks in the fridge.
