cold brewed
May. 16th, 2009 03:23 pmRecently we acquired a grill and engaged the experiments of outdoor cooking. In order to better heat the coals, we needed a metal coffee can. Folgers no longer makes coffee in large metal cans so I ended up with a big can of HEB coffee grounds. It isn't the coffee I normally drink, so I wondered what I was going to do with a couple dozen ounces of coffee grounds. It is getting hot too, notwithstanding this morning's thunderstorms. So the experiments with iced coffee began. Now that I've acquired a large glass jar and determined the 3 to 1 ratio and overnight steeping works best, I think I can move through all that coffee easily.
