What is cold brew coffee?
Cold brew coffee is coffee that is brewed using cold water for an extended period of time, typically 12 to 24 hours. This slow, low-temperature extraction process results in a coffee that is smooth, less acidic, and more concentrated than traditionally brewed coffee.
Why does it take so long to make cold brew coffee?
Extracting the flavors from coffee grinds with boiling water can result in the release of acids. This is why hot coffee tastes so bitter.
Cold Brew slowly steeps the grinds in stagnant water and prevents acid release.
AstroBrew patented brewing technology speeds the process up from 24 hours down to 20 minutes. Amazing!
