Cold Drip

Just finished my first go at cold drip 🙂

60grams of Ethiopian Nekisse to 600ml of ice and water over 7 hours. Last few drips as I type, hopefully it comes up ok.

Any good suggestions of beans ratios etc, I worked on 1/10.

Thanks

Lovely! I've done 60g to 500ml of water in mine for best low-volume taste. As to the bigger units like yours ?? Did you roast light for this or medium?

Hey BrettH mine is pretty much at capacity at the 750mls mark. Coffee was roasted just to medium dropped at 202c with a slower drying cycle and slightly higher airflow. First pour tonight just on ice was pretty good. Chester

The first effort at cold drip wasn't to bad :thumb: but as with all things coffee room for improvement :exclaim: Next roast will be a yirg dropped slightly lighter around 198c, and going to increase the drip rate just slightly higher to avoid any over extraction (it was very slight in taste but there was a little bitter note at the back of the palate) Going to stick to the 60 grams / 600mls ratio unless some one has a tried and tested method that's amazing in the cup every time 🙂 Chester

My base recipe is 6g/100mls at 3 drops per second. I then adjust the dose (usually up) for the next batch. But I seem to like 6/100 best especially for Ethiopian coffees.

Not sure how relevant it is, but I make Japanese Iced Coffee in the ratio of 32g coffee, 230g ice and 230g hot water in a Kone Coffee Filter. Really enjoying it on these warm afternoons!
