INTRODUCTION TO COLD BREWING
COLD BREWED COFFEE AND TEA
![KitchenAid KCM4212SX Cold Brew Coffee Maker User Manual 7 KitchenAid KCM4212SX Cold Brew Coffee Maker 4](https://manualsdock.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/KitchenAid-KCM4212SX-Cold-Brew-Coffee-Maker-4.png)
The classic cold brew coffee brewing method uses coarsely ground coffee steeped in cold water over 12-24 hours. This no-heat brew method produces a smooth, balanced flavor that’s less bitter. Cold-brewed tea is steeped in cold water over 4-12 hours. For tea, your package may have recommended brew times, but a general guideline is 4-6 hours for green and white teas and 8-12 hours for black and oolong teas.
For best results, use coarsely ground coffee or loose-leaf tea leaves. If you have a kitchen scale, you can use the chart below to determine how much coffee or tea to use. Or, use the coffee fill guideline on the steeper (see at left) as a rough guide when making coffee.
USING THE COLD BREW COFFEE MAKER
