I finally got around to making cold-brew coffee as laid out in this article that traversed the blogosphere a little while ago. I did notice a reduction in the heartburn factor, which is a major selling point if you drink as much coffee as I do (hint: too much). But the taste, well it’s not unlike turkish coffee or “camp coffee” in that it definitely has a detectable aftertaste. Frankly, it’s pretty nasty. I’m willing to give it a couple more tries to see if I can get it right, but I’m thinking at this point that cold-brew is best suited for making cofee based drinks and that plain old coffee is best for coffee.
