425 mL
Tools:
8 cups
glass pitcher (or measuring cup)
2 L

Method
Step 1
Stir ground coffee with 4 cups (1 L) water in pitcher. Refrigerate 6 hr.
Step 2

As coffee filter gets filled with ground coffee and flow-through slows, discard clogged filter and replace with new one. Continue straining process until all cold brew mixture is filtered.
Step 3
Store cold brew concentrate in refrigerator and use within 5 days. To prepare, mix 3 parts cold brew coffee concentrate with 1 part water, cream or milk. Sweeten to taste with choice of sweetener or simple syrup. Add ice.
Step 4
