Introduction
Iced coffee is the perfect way to cool down on a hot summer day. And while you could head to your local coffee shop to get your fix, making iced coffee at home is not only more affordable but also allows you to customize your drink to your liking. One of the best ways to make iced coffee at home is by using a cold brew system, and the Takeya Cold Brew Maker is one of the most popular options on the market. In this ultimate guide, we’ll walk you through the easy steps to making the perfect cup of iced coffee with the Takeya Cold Brew Maker.
Step 1: Gather Your Supplies
Before you start making your iced coffee, you’ll need to gather a few supplies. Here’s what you’ll need:
- Takeya Cold Brew Maker
- Coffee beans or grounds
- Filtered water
- A measuring cup
- A spoon
Step 2: Grind Your Coffee
The first step is to grind your coffee. For the best results, use a coarse grind. If you’re using whole beans, grind them in a coffee grinder. You’ll need about one cup of coffee for every four cups of water.
Step 3: Add Coffee to the Cold Brew Maker
Once your coffee is ground, add it to the Takeya Cold Brew Maker. You can use the filter or remove it, depending on your preference. If you’re using the filter, make sure it’s securely in place before adding the coffee.
Step 4: Add Water to the Cold Brew Maker
Next, add filtered water to the Cold Brew Maker. You’ll want to fill it to the top line, which is about four cups of water. Use a measuring cup to ensure you have the right amount.
Step 5: Stir and Refrigerate
Once you’ve added the coffee and water, use a spoon to stir them together. Make sure all the coffee is wet. Then, put the lid on the Cold Brew Maker and place it in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours. The longer you let it sit, the stronger the coffee will be.
Step 6: Strain Your Coffee
After your coffee has steeped for at least 12 hours, it’s time to strain it. Remove the Cold Brew Maker from the refrigerator and place it on top of a carafe or pitcher. Slowly pour the coffee through the filter and into the carafe. You may need to give it a few minutes to drain completely.
Step 7: Enjoy Your Perfect Cup of Iced Coffee
Now that your coffee is ready, it’s time to enjoy it! Fill a glass with ice and pour the cold brew over it. Add milk or sweetener if desired. You can also store any leftover coffee in the refrigerator for up to a week.
