Fuck off

Coldbrew is worse than instant coffee

pint mason jar

It's because you've been sold a pack of lies. You want a very fine grind, espresso grind, to make cold brew, but the internet says to use a coarse grind, so you've been doing it wrong the whole time.

look at this bullshit:

an entire POUND of coffee for a quart of coffee. That's a cataclysmic amount of waste. That's like burning down a tree to make a single burger.

It's basic chemistry, you want an extraction in solution, you grind the solids as fine as you can to maximize reaction surface area, but a whole bunch of retards never had a basic science education and propagated a bunch of nonsense about cold brew, and you fell for it since you also did not graduate high school either.
Anyway, try it with an espresso grind and you'll see the real benefit

I had been using old Voss bottles for packing my cold coffee, filtered water, etc. But lately, all I can find is Voss in plastic bottles, so fuck that.
I have large mason jars that I use now. A pack of mason jars is worth the small cost.

COLD brew, stupid. not ROOM TEMPERATURE brew.

I'm sorry. I only shitpost on 4chan to feel better about myself. /ck/ deserves better.

I use about 4 TBPS fine ground coffee(usually Bustelo) in a quart of water, 12 hours in the fridge. run it through a filter in the morning and it's very nice, strong, slightly sweet and chocolately tasting. I always have it black unless I'm feeling extra beetusy and then I add a dash of sweetened condensed milk

Try TJMaxx, seriously, if you want large and small voss bottles.
I only see the glass in groceries in the largest, and only sometimes now. Great use of the container, but it's still hard to wash properly.
Mason jars have a better lid for sterilizing meant for reuse, and if switch to Ball, you add on a cost of separate lid purchase, you can get a nice one without the ring more suitable for daily use with a pouring spout.

The reason coarse grind is recommended is ease of filtration later, I assume, quite a bit quicker to filter something less fine. And, yes, I learned that in science, namely years in archaeology. Since most people can't easily home grind on inferior grinders without getting a bunch of powdery fine grounds with their coarse attempts, I think the point is moot. What attracts a lot of folks into Cold Brew is a love for coffee but with stomach acid issues, so getting out the solids is key.

I put a couple scoops of grounds into a jar, fill it with filtered water, and stick it in the fridge overnight. In the morning, I pour it into my press to get most of the grounds out.

Pretty good, or at least different, depending on the coffee I use. The ease of the process is what attracts me, really.
