dsrtaoI had forgotten how good this method tastes.
Find a large glass jar. Put in about five times as much water as coarsely ground coffee. Put the lid on and leave in the refrigerator for 24-96 hours. Filter out the grounds -- I use a wire colander.
The result is a huge extraction of coffee flavor, but with almost no acid, and with all of the caffeine that was present. Perfect cold coffee. Keep it sealed and cold, because warmth releases the aromatic oils...
