Actually, I never used the term "cold brew". It's an iced coffee, brewed using hot water.

I'm not patient enough to wait for a 12h cold brew ๐Ÿ˜‚. And also, the taste will be different. Cold brew will accentuate bitterness, while using the normal immersion filter method will extract a lot of sweetness from the bean.

Usually, I make around 300mL of iced coffee. Here's how I do it:

  1. Weigh 100g of ice cubes, put in the carafe, and store in the freezer.
  2. I use 18g of medium roasted arabica, and grind it medium coarse (similar to pour over size)
  3. Put the coffee ground in Hario Switch and add 200g of boiled water.
  4. Stir and let it brew for 5 minutes.
  5. Decant the coffee into the carafe (nr. 1).
  6. Give a good stirr until all the ice cube melt, and enjoy it directly or put in the fridge for later.

I hope it helps.

Just bought it, haven't tried it yet. It was roasted medium, so filter method will be my choice. I usually using clever dripper, or Hario Mugen if not too lazy ๐Ÿ˜….

Maybe just my "traditional", but tbh I never enjoy the "alternative" post-harvest methods (i.e. honey, carbonated, etc). My heart will always to the traditional full- or semi-washed beans.

If you like to experimenting with different basket size, I recommend bottomless porta. I used the one that fits 24gr-basket, but able to swap to 18gr or 12gr basket.

Update: I tried to make a Vietnamese coffee with it, and it taste okay. I even got a hint of gasoline in the cup ๐Ÿคฃ.

This seems to be roasted traditionally, i.e. using firewood and steel wok. So, they really over-roasted it...

Thanks for all the suggestion, I suppose trying coldbrew will be interesting. I also will try turkish style with additional sugar. And mybe Vietnamese after buying some condensed milk.

LoL... Actually she doesn't really into the coffee world. She knows I'm a coffee addict, and always bring me beans if she able to get some.

My colleague brought me this dark roasted robusta. I never have a pleasent experience with that kind of roast. Any idea how should I enjoy it?

[-] mifilmi@lemmy.my.id 2 points 1 year ago

LoL. Itu beli dari Dasawarsa rostery di Jogja. Papua dan Flores terlalu earthy, agak kurang suka.

Yeah, that's a misconception. Indonesian coffee have various notes. Even I haven't try them all.

Currently using Clever Dripper, a similar brewing concept with Hario Switch.

I started with Bengkulu Honey, and it's very sweet. I couldn't taste any acidity or bitterness in the cup. However, i think I can go a little bit finer grinding size to extract more and increase the body.

Found these beans from my local roastery. Both are from Sumatera island, although different area. Sumateran coffee are well known for their fruity notes. So I'm excited to taste them.

Same here, Liftoff for mobile, and browser when I got a chance to sit in front of my computer.

Clever dripper is my morning choice, brewing beans from West Java, Indonesia.

Found this video yesterday, and the concept is quite interesting. It's "radial infusion", which means the water infused to the coffee ground from the side, instead of poured over. The video says it will results higher extraction percentage. I do interested and already found a distributor in my country, but does it worth a buy?
