Instructions
-
Combine ground coffee and water in a large pitcher, stirring thoroughly to saturate the grounds.
-
Cover the pitcher with a clean towel or cheesecloth and let it steep at room temperature for 12 hours or overnight.
-
Line a fine-mesh sieve with cheesecloth and place it over a clean pitcher; slowly pour the steeped coffee through to strain, without stirring, then discard solids.
-
Wash the sieve, then line it with a coffee filter and place it over a clean jar; pour the strained coffee through the filter, allowing it to drip naturally without stirring.
-
Store the concentrate in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three weeks, diluting 1 part concentrate with 1 part water or milk when serving.
