Two servings of double-strength iced coffee in stainless-steel tumblers

Double-Strength Iced Coffee

A concentrated brew diluted with measured ice and cold water. Check your brewer’s minimum batch and basket capacity. The 1:16 input ratio assumes the measured ice melts; replace any remaining ice with the same weight of cold water. Brew time varies by machine. Allow about 2 minutes to measure the coffee, water and ice; brewing time is additional.

Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients
  

  • 40 g ground coffee
  • 320 ml cold water for brewing
  • 200 g ice 100 g per tumbler
  • 120 ml cold water for dilution 60 ml per tumbler

Equipment

  • Drip coffee maker, kitchen scale and two 16 oz heatproof tumblers

Method
 

  1. Weigh 40 g of coffee, ground for your drip machine, and put it in the filter basket. That is roughly 8 tablespoons, using Starbucks' 3 tablespoons to 15 g.
  2. Pour 320 ml (about 10.8 fl oz) of cold water into the reservoir. Measure it rather than trusting the carafe marks, and add nothing else.
  3. Brew into the carafe as usual. Turn the machine off when it finishes so the coffee does not sit on the warming plate.
  4. Put 100 g of ice and 60 ml (about 2 fl oz) of cold water in each of two 16 oz heatproof tumblers, away from the warming plate.
  5. Pour the coffee slowly and evenly between the tumblers, then stir for a few seconds.
