Do you heat cold brew coffee?

I bought 

Primula 2.7-qt Tritan Pitcher with Fruit Infusion & Cold Brew, but it didn;t come with any instructions----just the pitcher in a box. Not sure how much coffee to put in it. Do you heat it in the microwave then to get the benefit of a smoother taste, but like hot coffee better than iced?

Cold brew means not heated.

I use the Cold Brew Liquid Pods (Amazon) and pour it into a cup of hot water!  Hot coffee!

 

On that cool morning, add a Pod of Hot Cocoa.  Instant Latte!

Re: Do you heat cold brew coffee?

I don't have a designated cold brew pitcher.  I picked up some mesh drawstring bags on Amazon to hold my grounds.  I process my beans to a coarse grind and add them to the bag.  Put the bag in a half gallon mason jar and fill with water.  Refrigerate and let it brew 18-24 hrs.  For a faster brew, let it sit on the counter instead for 12-16 hrs.

Re: Do you heat cold brew coffee?

Cold brew coffee is supposed to be low acid coffee!

 

That's why I tried it.....still use iit because I live it!

 

I have never made my own.  I buy the pods.
