Milky Cold Brew Latte (concentrate)

Ingredients

• 200 g coarsely ground Aceh Gayo 
• 800 g filtered water
• Milk of choice (whole milk or oat milk recommended)
• Simple syrup or vanilla syrup (optional)
• Ice

Method

1. Combine: In a jar or pitcher, add 200 g coffee and 800 g water (1:4 ratio). 
2. Steep: Cover and refrigerate for 16–18 hours.
3. First filter: Pour through a coarse strainer or mesh into another container to remove grounds.
4. Fine filter (optional for clarity): Pass concentrate through a paper filter, fine cloth, or Chemex to remove fines. Keep concentrate refrigerated.
5. Serve: Fill a glass with ice. Pour 1 part concentrate + 1 part milk (1:1). Sweeten with simple syrup or vanilla to taste (start with 10–15 ml). Stir and enjoy.
6. Storage: Keep concentrate in a sealed container in the fridge up to 10 days (best within 4–7 days).

Tips: Use metal filtration to retain oils for extra body. Add a light dusting of cocoa or cinnamon on top for garnish.
