Have you ever thought that hot-brewed coffee is to bitter? You’re not alone. Hot coffee can be incredibly strong for some peoples preference. Cold brew coffee allows you to enjoy all of the same energy and health benefits as normal coffee, without the hard bitter taste! To make it, you don’t even need a filter, or coffee maker. Just get a large jug or container, and you’re ready to go!
Cold Brew Coffee – What Is It?
Cold brew coffee is when you steep the grounds directly in cold or room temperature water for a longer duration of time (12 hours or more). The water is never heated, but it extracts the caffeine from the grounds over the duration of time.
What Is Hot Brew Coffee?
Hot brew coffee involves boiling the water, this allows the coffee drinker to extract the caffeine much faster then cold brew as the heated water will speed up the caffeine extraction. While the major benefit is the faster brewing time, the downside is that the coffee tastes stronger, and will be more bitter since the hot brew method extracts the acid from the coffee as well.
