Iced Coffee > Cold Brew.
Fuck that, I love Cold Brew, its great with tonic.
Anyone else into coffee x tonic? What I had in the last time: Espresso Tonic (Cafe), Ristretto Tonic (Cafe), Cold Brew Tonic (at home) and Iced Coffee on Tonic (at home). Its a great Summer-Drink.New Cold Brew is in the making.
40g coarse coffee and 400ml water, 10 to 12 hours. Filter through Kalita 185. -
Make some iced coffee and you are fine.

I drink iced coffee all year long. Make iced pour over using my Chemex and a French Roast.
Stupid question but so you just fill the basin with ice and pour over as usual?

I do it in a Chemex as well but prefer the aeropress for that.
If you use lets say 300g of water for the pour over, just use 150g and let it drip on 150g ice inside the Chemex. Its really that easy.

Yes,Just fill the basin with ice,but the amount of ice will have an effect on the taste. You have to experiment. In the end the combination of the melted ice and the water equals the same water to coffee ratio as if you had brewed it normally. There are quite a few videos on YouTube. I have a coffee scoop that I've been using forever and I,at this point, know exactly how many scoops to use. My brother in law keeps telling me to weigh the coffee,just in case, I loose the scoop.

@Anesthetist I thought I was crazy for preferring the iced coffee at St. Louis Bread Company over most cold brews that I've had, which to me often taste like house paint smells. At least @JCMx800 is with me.

We checked out dark arts coffee in london. Hard to find by chance but worth the extra walk.

^More great pictures Flo, how was the coffee @Max Power ?
-
Thank you, it was awesome. Plus the people were super friendly and played good music. Was good hanging out there. Also not too far is crypt of the wizard and the hackney farm, so its worth going to hackney.

I studied at The University of London, Queen Mary College, 1988-1991 and lived on the Hackney Road. Was a really diverse, interesting and bustling place back then. Enjoy

@den1mhead Cool! Locals said it changed the last years - i liked it there. On my instagram account (rise_above_1984) you can see pictures of the hackney farm. That place was fantastic.

Great Instagram photos

Local Barista and my fav coffee shop said I should get a Kalita 155 Steel Wave Dripper. Ordered!
Picked up a 185 a few days ago and have been really impressed with the quality of the cup.
I love how far down the rabbit hole you all go in the name of caffeine!
Thanks for the recommendation!

Nice Earache/Napalm Death tee. I can't remember if I saw them or Bolt Thrower in concert many years ago. Good times

@budpatch nice on the 185. It's been my mainstay for years. I do go to a chemex if I want to go all out, but the 185 is a really high bar/sweet spot.
In random coffee news I'm onto my second cup of Cup of Excellence coffee for the spring/summer. Hints of a panama geisha, but more chocolatey back pallet and body. In heaven to be drinking such wonderful coffee this early in the season.
