Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 1.58 kg before cooking, which is about 130 g per serving.

Steps

Grind 175 g of coffee beans on a very coarse setting, roughly the texture of sea salt. The creator recommends using older beans because cold steeping is less likely to emphasize stale flavors.
Line a large mason jar with cheesecloth, leaving enough cloth over the rim to lift out the grounds later.
Add the coarsely ground coffee to the cheesecloth-lined jar.
Pour in half of the 1,400 ml water, about 700 ml. Stir thoroughly with a spoon so all of the coffee grounds are fully saturated.
Add the remaining 700 ml water and stir gently to combine.
Close the jar and steep the coffee at room temperature for 18 hours, preferably overnight.
The next day, remove the coffee grounds and cheesecloth from the jar, allowing the liquid to drain without aggressively pressing the grounds.
Strain the cold brew a second time through a coffee filter to remove fine sediment and produce a cleaner concentrate.
To serve, fill a large glass with ice. Pour in two parts cold brew concentrate and one part water, then stir. The concentrate may also be used as a substitute for espresso when needed.

Notes

The finished brew is a concentrate rather than ready-to-drink coffee. Keep the strained concentrate refrigerated for best quality, and dilute individual servings at a 2:1 cold brew-to-water ratio.
