Brewing Cold Brew

No heat. No bitterness. Just time.

Coarse grounds — our cold brew grind — steeped in cold, filtered water for 12 to 24 hours. No heat means no bitterness: the result is smooth, sweet and naturally low in acid.

What to look for: Cold water extracts sweetness and body while leaving bitterness behind, so bold, chocolatey beans that might turn harsh hot become smooth and rich cold. Serve over ice, cut with water or milk to taste.

Our picks for cold brew

1. Cold Brew Blend Purpose Built

   Blended and pre-ground specifically for this. Full bodied, rich and clean — no decisions to make, no grinder needed. Steep, strain, done. This is the one.

2. Brazil Smooth & Sweet

   Brazil Santos' natural caramel sweetness is made for cold extraction — incredibly smooth over ice, and it takes milk beautifully.

3. Johnny Cash Strong & Dark

   Dark roast, cold water, big result. The intensity that makes Johnny Cash shine on the stovetop turns into a deep, chocolatey cold brew with none of the edge.
