Help Me Out Please

Help Me Out Please

I’m new to making my own cold brew. I’ve made 4 or 5 batches so far. One with espresso beans, one with dark roast, one with medium roast and one that was decaf medium roast. I’ve been putting between 1 3/4 and 2 cups in the filter and using around 48 oz of water. I usually can add a bit more water to get it to the edge. I’ve been leaving it on the counter for 24 hours before removing the filter. I’m using a fairly large grind. No failures; all the batches have been pretty good but I’d really like to dial it in. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Chocolate Sundae

Vegan chocolate sundae with minimal ingredients. Ice cream is frozen bananas, a little bit of vanilla extract and 1/4 cup almond milk. The chocolate sauce is dates, cacao and a little bit of almond milk. 🙂

Two Coffee Day

First coffee was at home; my usual morning ritual. Espresso beans ground for a moka pot. With a little steamed milk from a cheap steamer I picked up. The second coffee was at a coffee shop. Cappuccino with a slice of orange cardamom pound cake. 🙂

Cortado

I usually make my coffee at home but I usually go out on Sundays for a cortado.

Chia Seed Pudding with Ice Cream

A little treat from earlier. The ice cream is made from frozen bananas, dark cherries and mango. Chia seed pudding is 3 tbsp chia seeds, 1 tbsp maple syrup and I cup soy milk.
