518. cold brew

Have you tried cold brewed iced coffee yet? I may be late to the party…but this is the best way to make iced coffee. (Seriously, the best, best, best).

Let the coffee grounds sit in the water (1 part coffee to 3 parts water) overnight, then drip cold. I used the Chemex, others use cheesecloth. You get a coffee concentrate that you can keep in the fridge for weeks Like it would last that long in our hours. Heh.

More info here: NY Times, Smitten Kitchen and Pioneer Woman.

Oh, and happy summer.

517. double lucky coffee

Jussi Laitinen, Helsinki, Finland.

“Morning coffee with good friends and awesome flowergarden. Just found cloverleaf, and a second after that, my girlfriend did same. Thought that is was worthy of a picture.”

I’ll say, and worthy of  second cup of coffee, as well. Anyone else?

Jussi is a home barista and blogs (in Finnish) at nonsesopedia.
