Love cold brew coffee, but hate making it? You can make cold brew coffee several different ways. Most methods involve grinding and measuring coffee beans followed by a ton of cleanup.

What’s great about making your own cold brew coffee at home is that there really is no right or wrong ratio. Everyone will have a unique steep time or ratio depending on what tastes the best to you! Charlie recommends a 2:1 ratio of coffee to water, but we encourage you to try whatever ratio’s you’d like, too! For some, making a concentrate (not adding water after steeping) gives them more flexibility later with adding water, creamer, or other dairy alternatives for what tastes the best to them.

The short answer is yes cold brew coffee is less acidic. Several scientific studies have shown that cold brew coffee may provide antioxidants, & also helps with stomach related issues since it is lower in acidity.
