Seattle's Best Coffee Cold Brew How-To

Seattle's Best Coffee (www.seattlesbest.com) offers a quick tutorial on how-to cold brew coffee and the reasoning behind why delicious cold brewed coffee is used in its cafes.

The key ingredient in iced coffee drinks from Seattle's Best Coffee is the cold brewed coffee concentrate, produced by using the cold brewing process with the Toddy® brewing system. A Toddy uses cold water to extract the natural, delicious flavors of coffee and leaves behind undesirable bitter acids and oils. The result: A bold, slightly sweet, a little crisp, super-smooth taste with the added benefit of more than 50% less acidity than conventional brewing methods. Cold brewed coffee is used as the base for Seattles Best Coffee JavaKula™ blended beverages, coffee milkshakes and Hand Shaken ColdBrewed Originals.

@iloverumi - If your concentrate is too weak, you're probably not using a good grind.  I use a very fine expresso grind. More surface area on the coffee will make a stronger concentrate. I also let mine soak for 24 hours. We've used it for years like this, and the concentrate is so strong that one ounce (a shot glass) in a cup of water makes a good strong coffee, and I like my coffee strong. This gives us roughly 30 cups of coffee per pound.

I absolutely love my Toddy, though I'll point out that if your Toddy is the same design as mine (and it looks like it is) you use half a gallon of water, not a gallon. I always use exactly 9 cups (one cup more than half a gallon) and it comes close to overflowing.

@kennedym152010 I have an interview at Seattle's Best on Monday. I was wondering if you could tell me if you enjoy working there or not. My last job was horrible &I just want to make sure I'm not miserable at my potential new job.

I tried this at home. The "concentrate" wasn't too concentrated (I used the exact same coffee/water ratio and I let it sit overnight). I could drink the concentrate as is, w/o diluting it. Did I make a mistake somewhere? It tastes great and feels a lot better to drink. But it seems to require a lot more coffee beans to yield a cup of coffee.
