Cold brew is made by steeping coffee grounds in cold water over a long period, usually 12 hours or more. Iced coffee, on the other hand, is brewed hot and then cooled down with ice or in the fridge. Cold brew tends to be smoother and less acidic.
Technically yes, but we recommend using coarse-ground, medium-to-dark roast coffee for the best results. It pairs perfectly with our cold brew brewing tools to give you a bold, smooth taste.
Properly stored in an airtight container, cold brew can last up to 10 days in the fridge without losing its smooth flavor.
If you're just starting out, we suggest going with a cold brew kit that’s simple to use and easy to clean. We’ve handpicked beginner-friendly gear in our collection to make your first brew a success.
All you need is a cold brew kit that includes a brewer, a filter, and your favorite coffee. Just add cold water and let it steep for 12–24 hours – it’s that easy! Its worth waiting for a great glas of coffee
Cold brew is a brewing method where coarsely ground coffee is steeped in cold water for 12–24 hours. This process creates a smoother, less acidic cup compared to traditional hot brewing. It's the perfect refreshing drink for warm days—or any time you want a mellow, flavorful coffee experience.
Making cold brew is easy and doesn’t require much equipment:
You’ll end up with a cold brew concentrate that can be enjoyed over ice, with water, milk, or plant-based alternatives.
Using the right tools can enhance both taste and convenience:
Kinto Capsule Cold Brew Carafe: Stylish, easy to use, and comes with a built-in filter.
Tiamo Cold Brew Dripper: Ideal for slow-drip brewing enthusiasts.
These tools help ensure even extraction and full-bodied flavor.
Grinding right before brewing maximizes flavor.
Longer steeping can make it bolder—but balance to avoid bitterness.
Keep your cold brew sealed in the fridge and enjoy it within a few days for peak freshness.
