Questions about Brewed coffee
What’s the best way to brew coffee at home?
For filter coffee, use freshly ground beans and water just off the boil, around 92–96 °C. A starting ratio is about 60 g of coffee per litre of water; pour evenly and let it brew for roughly 3–5 minutes.
How fine should you grind coffee for different brewing methods?
Use a coarse grind for a cafetière, medium for a filter machine or pour-over, and fine for espresso. If cafetière coffee tastes bitter or muddy, try a coarser grind; if filter coffee tastes weak and sour, try grinding finer.
How do you make cold-brew coffee?
Mix coarsely ground coffee with cold water, cover and steep in the fridge for about 12–18 hours. Strain it through a fine sieve or paper filter, then serve over ice; dilute the concentrate with water or milk if it tastes too strong.
How long does brewed coffee keep in the fridge?
Cool it promptly, cover it and refrigerate it within two hours; use it within 3–4 days. Keep milk out until serving, since coffee with milk does not keep as well.
Can you reheat brewed coffee?
Yes, warm it gently in a small pan or microwave, stopping as soon as it is hot. Boiling it can make the flavour harsh, and reheating coffee that has been left out for hours will not make it safe.
What goes well with brewed coffee?
Its roasted, slightly bitter flavour works especially well with buttery pastries, chocolate, cinnamon buns and oat biscuits. In cooking, use cooled brewed coffee in chocolate cake or tiramisu to deepen the flavour.
Is decaffeinated brewed coffee completely caffeine-free?
No. Decaffeination removes most, but not necessarily all, of the caffeine; the amount left can vary with the beans and brewing method. It still gives you the familiar coffee flavour, so it is an easy swap in most recipes.
Can you use brewed coffee instead of espresso in a recipe?
You can, but brewed coffee is usually less concentrated. Use a smaller amount in recipes such as tiramisu or coffee icing, or reduce it gently in a pan to make its flavour more intense.
