Given Madesco Labs' one-year full replacement guarantee - it is no surprise fine restaurants specifically request the Madesco Cold Brew Coffee Strainer Pouch to render an exquisite cold brew coffee (or coffee concentrate) with smooth flavor, rich undertones and side-step the bitterness associated with coffee beans assaulted by scalding water. For a mellow flavor with hints of caramel choose just the right bean, medium grind. Pour some cold brew onto ice for a refreshing pick-me-up. Or steep an extra-strong batch for concentrate to add to frothy steamed milk for an exceedingly smooth cappuccino. Keep some on-hand in your fridge and dilute for a refreshing beverage - hot or cold. Add to ice cream, whipped cream, icings, Mexican mole, barbecue sauce, chili, any other dishes looking for a touch of "cold brew coffee magic." Just spoon a quality, medium-grind coffee, into the coffee pouch, making sure all the coffee settles into the pouch's bottom. Holding the mouth of your pouch above your brewing container, slowly pour cool fresh water into the pouch, thoroughly saturating the medium-grind coffee. Pull the pouch drawstrings to close and immerse the portion of the pouch holding the coffee below the water level. Use the lid of your container to hold the pouch opening above water (or you can hang the pouch top outside the container altogether). Find something to do for 12 hours and let the magic take place. No need to shake or stir the water once the coffee is saturated - nature's dispersive forces do all the mixing for you (a little science here). Once made, store your cold brew in the refrigerator - it really does store marvelously - keeping a lid on it to avoid fridge smells and pesky oxygen.
