French press

A French press coffee maker is great for brewing a full-bodied, hot cup of coffee. But did you know you could also make French press cold brew? I recently learned how to do so, and it's a game changer. If you love cold brew and have a French press coffee maker, you already have what you need to make smooth, bold cold brew coffee at home. Here's everything you need to know about using your French press coffee maker to make cold brew.
Can you use a French press to make cold brew?

I love finding a new purpose for household items we thought only had one purpose. The design of a French press is perfect for steeping cold brew, creating the ideal smooth and low-acidity cold coffee. I love making cold brew at home this way because it gives you more control over how strong you can make it (and gives you the option of making half caff or decaf cold brew, if you desire). You also control how long you leave your coffee to steep (16 to 20 hours is generally the sweet spot for great-tasting cold brew).

Cold brew coffee

One of the best things about cold brew coffee is its smoothness. The smooth taste and low acidity make cold brew coffee too easy to slurp down if I'm not paying close attention. Though cold brew coffee is both delicious and refreshing, it's also reasonably high in caffeine which can hit you quickly if you're casually sipping on cold brew without considering the caffeine content.

If you've ever gotten carried away and enjoyed your cold brew a little too much, you may have faced the coffee jitters (I know I have), leading you to wonder just how much caffeine is in cold brew coffee. It's been great to see so many coffee companies emerging with decaf cold brew options I can enjoy without feeling so restless. But does cold brew coffee have more caffeine than your average cup of hot coffee? Or, more caffeine than iced coffee? Let's explore.
