Just buy coffee beans and cold brew them. This means mix them with cold water, leave them in the fridge for 24-36 hours, filter your mixture and then you have cold-brewed coffee. You can brew a concentrate which you can dilute with hot or cold water or milk or whatever. The concentrate keeps in the fridge for a few days no problem. To create a concentrate I would try 200 grams of beans for 1 litre of water, and do a medium-coarse grind. Any coffee beans will do for this method, works very well with mediocre beans that you might buy in the supermarket as it can cover up faults.

Are coffee beans cheaper to buy than the filter coffee stuff, wife drinks coffee, find myself on the stuff now.
Can you get beans in Dunnes/Tescos? or where cheaper? does it work out cheaper than the cafetiere/filter coffee?

So, for the cold brew, I presume you mean grind them up, and let them sit in the water, not whole? for the initial mix you mention, how much coffee to water, less beans 1litre water?? or same weight beans, more water??

Yes, as mentioned I use a medium-coarse grind. It is fine to use pre-ground coffee for this, especially if concerned about cost. If at future you are interested in other, more niche coffees then there is loads of suggestions in our stickies. Dunnes/ Tesco/ M&S carry ground coffee that is cheap enough. You can actually cold brew this in your caffetiere, and press down on it after the 24 hours have passed !

Prior to roasting, the green coffee beans are steamed to remove virtually all detrimental substances, but leaving behind the full caffeine content.
Today, this famous “stomach-friendly” coffee is a delight for many coffee lovers, reflected in the slogan which has accompanied this coffee from the very beginning:

IDEE coffee.
To add joy to your life!

They have a retail store in Dun Laoghaire
