COLD BREW 101

  • Cold brewing is a method of brewing coffee over a long period of time (typically 10-16 hours) without heat.
  • Cold brew coffee tastes less bitter than traditional hot-brewed coffee because cold brew has approximately 67% less acidity than hot-brewed coffee.
  • Rather than being made in 35 minutes at high temperatures, cold brew coffee is made over a period of 12-24 hours at low temperatures (room temperature or below).
  • This process takes longer since heat is the catalyst in traditional brewing, but since cold water is being used (or rather hot water is not being used), the roasty flavors and aromas from the beans are gradually extracted, but the acrid oils and acids are left behind.
  • This makes for a richer, smoother, and sweeter brew. The difference is actually so great, that people who never drink their morning brew without cream and sugar often find themselves drinking their cold brew black.
  • The Cold Brew Process produces a smooth, rich coffee that is very low in acidity and naturally higher in caffeine.

DOES THE COFFEE MATTER?

ARABICA VS ROBUSTO
  • Yes, it definitely does. Cafe Agave uses 100% Arabica Coffee.
  • Arabica coffee beans are far superior to Robusta in terms of flavor and quality. They are grown at higher elevations for longer periods of time giving the beans more time to develop their flavor.
  • Robusta contains more caffeine than Arabica which contributes to a harsher taste. They tend to produce a higher yield and are used for lower quality coffee and instant coffee.
WHY WE CHOOSE DARK ROAST

  • Dark roast coffee is commonly described as having an intense, full-bodied, bittersweet and bold flavor, largely due to the roasting process.
  • Tastes converge towards chocolatey darkness, and there is less in the way of floral, berry, fruit, citrus. We think this bold and rich flavor is perfect for our spiked ready to serve cold brew.
