The Secret to Iced Coffee That Doesn't Get Watered Down
The biggest complaint about iced coffee? It gets diluted as the ice melts. This method solves that problem by using a concentrated brew that's designed to be poured over ice.
The Science of Not Diluting
According to the Specialty Coffee Association, proper brewing ratios are crucial for coffee quality. When making iced coffee, you need to account for the water from melting iceâwhich is exactly what this recipe does.
Pro Tips for Better Iced Coffee
