This is not the case, the cold brew is actually much better! We can therefore call it cold brew.
Cold brew can be done in two ways, depending on the patient and the taste of each.
The Hario "drip" allows you to transform your ground coffee into a rich, delicate, aromatic and sweet liquor. All extracted in 12 hours!
Whereas the Hario bottle allows you to obtain an aromatic coffee drink without any great difficulty by immersing your ground coffee in filtered water in 6 hours in the refrigerator!
MATERIALS AND INGREDIENTS REQUIRED FOR THE PREPARATION OF COLD BREW (No. 1 with a Hario drip extractor)
To make the cold brew in drip, we used the Gihombo Bourbon. Indeed, this coffee from Rwanda is very fruity, naturally sweet and acidulous. Moreover, this coffee has little body. The cold brew in drop will magnify all its aromas and flavors by bringing him this liquor side!
We recommend the following accessories:
- Manual grinder Porlex 40gr or a Baratza Virtuoso grinder
- Bourbon coffee from Gihombo or Enesio
- Filtered water (1L)
- stopwatch
PREPARATION PHASE
1- Grind 75gr of coffee for 1L
2- Put the coffee in the middle tank
3- Wet the coffee with a little water and mix with a wooden spatula
4- place the pre-cut paper filter on the stainless steel rod, having rinsed it beforehand (to remove the taste of the paper)
5- Put the water in the top tank (1L)
INFUSION PHASE
6- (This is where it gets a bit tricky) Set the flow of the drop with the tap at one drop per second, using a stopwatch.

FANNY'S TIPS:
Try it sparkling, it's even more refreshing! or with a slice of orange or peach!
