i hate diary milk so **ck lattes but cold brewed coffee is sublime. 1/3 cup grounds: 12 oz H20 let sit and chill for ten hours or so. strain through a fine mesh strainer and cup of godlike iced coffee is yours. taste is fantastic this way but it does use a bit more beans to make it thusly

Mordy, Friday, 29 August 2014 00:35 (ten years ago) link

not that it's a bad thing... but not enough caffeine

Peets' iced latte was the sole thing that got me through moving last month.

stumptown's cold brew has fueled me through a few occasions this past month.

I tried out this place too: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/11/dining/the-best-iced-latte-in-america.html

I suppose you can call it a mild version of Thai Iced Coffee. Wouldn't go out of the way for it.

i get so sad when you order iced coffee & they reach for just the tiniest lil plastic cup

schlump, Friday, 29 August 2014 04:03 (ten years ago) link

also sucks strolling into a cafe trailing a thought bubble full of sweet frosty coffee sloshing around in it & seeing COLD BREW — $5.50 chalked on the board

I bought adorable paper straws to drink the cold brew I make for myself with

first of all iced latte is made with espresso, not coffee

the late great, Friday, 29 August 2014 04:49 (ten years ago) link

i ask for three shots in a 16 oz iced latte which i guarantee you a) has enough caffeine and b) does not taste like milk

the late great, Friday, 29 August 2014 04:50 (ten years ago) link

like elvisa, i get it at peet's

the late great, Friday, 29 August 2014 04:51 (ten years ago) link

Brew it strong, use a shaker and don't include the ice cubes in what you serve and it will always be better -- the only exception to this rule is Vietnamese style.

Three Word Username, Friday, 29 August 2014 07:50 (ten years ago) link

Let me let you in on a little secret: make ice cubes out of coffee. Sounds crazy, but it works. You might want to consider adding milk and sugar to the ice cubes, in addition. Hell, you can even add the ice cubes to coffee that's too hot! It'll cool it down very quickly.

Coffee Bob, what do you make of cold brewing

am0n, Saturday, 6 September 2014 17:24 (ten years ago) link

are u saying add the coffee ice cubes to gatorade?

am0n, Saturday, 6 September 2014 17:25 (ten years ago) link

I was surprised to hear the Jeremy Irons character in Brideshead Revisited refer to staying up studying with lots of Iced coffee when I started trying to watch the series a couple of weeks back.
hadn't really thought of it as being something that hit English shores that early. 1920s or 30s or whatever.

Stevolende, Saturday, 6 September 2014 18:52 (ten years ago) link

Amon cold brews are not something I have ever really enjoyed, they always seem too strong and they are usually too expensive in coffee shops. If I want cold coffee I will simply chill a mug of hot coffee.

Gatorade with coffee ice cubes? Boy that really is a strange idea. I would advise against it.

Coffee Bob, Saturday, 6 September 2014 19:06 (ten years ago) link

i'm tellin' ya, cold brewed coffee yields a different dimension of flavor.
and coffee ice cubes rule! they melt slowly

SEEMS TO ME (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 6 September 2014 22:01 (ten years ago) link

Instant iced coffee truly is not bad, depending on the flavor. I use Taster's Choice Colombian. French Roast instant isn't bad, either. Not crazy about OTC iced coffee - rather just throw those crystals in a tumbler with ice, sugar and soy milk. Then shake the bejeezus out of it. Yum, foamy. Currently addicted to this sh!t.

Instant coffee isn't bad shaken up with soy milk and ice - I like it strong, OR stirred into ice cream, esp. Mint.

number of coffee shops in manchester that understand the concept of iced black coffee so far: 0 out of 4. STOP PUTTING SUGAR IN IT UGH

lex pretend, Tuesday, 23 September 2014 13:23 (ten years ago) link

Have you tried politesly asking for no sugar?

online hardman, Tuesday, 23 September 2014 14:30 (ten years ago) link

cold brew or no brew

festival culture (Jordan), Tuesday, 23 September 2014 14:32 (ten years ago) link

xp tbh if you ask for "black coffee" it is insane to put sugar in it imo

EMA Sumac (Stevie D(eux)), Tuesday, 23 September 2014 14:38 (ten years ago) link

like by asking for black coffee he is already asking for no sugar

EMA Sumac (Stevie D(eux)), Tuesday, 23 September 2014 14:38 (ten years ago) link

I think every single time I've gotten iced coffee in this country it's just served black by default and if you want cream or sugar you put it in yourself at the cream and sugar station

yes this is what i'm SAYING. i have politely asked for no sugar after taking a sip and realising it's disgustingly sickly

lex pretend, Tuesday, 23 September 2014 14:45 (ten years ago) link

The tricky thing is that sugar doesn't change the color of the coffee.

Immediate Follower (NA), Tuesday, 23 September 2014 14:53 (ten years ago) link

Black coffee just means no milk not no sugar but they shouldn't be putting any sweetener in it unless you ask for it anyway.

I got a drink somewhere in AZ that was horchata with two shots of espresso in it and it was called the dirty hor.

Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Tuesday, 23 September 2014 14:57 (ten years ago) link

Also I am totally getting a dirty chair with THREE SHOTS tonight because i agree that the default amount used in latte type things is not enough. I like my coffee really strong tho. Also, I would like to praise the delicious nectar that is Grady's (no relation) Cold Brew. So fucking good.

horchata with two shots of espresso

Why hasn't this combo been jumped on by the coffee corps of the world? Or even your usual 3rd wave shops?
