I cold brewed some decaf coffee aiming for a 1:8 ratio by weight (ended up in two separate jars but one was 1:7 and the other 1:9; close enough, probably) and it made some good-ass concentrate enjoyable with milk.

I did have some ratio anxiety since online recipes are like “I dunno, 1:4. Or 1:10! Or 1:3 by whole bean volume. Or 1:13 if you wanna make coffee not concentrate.” The vagueness just gave me jitters (much like some cold brew) so I quiet-yelled a little and then recruited @tekgo to help calm me down and together we managed to accomplish the tasks of starting (yesterday) and decanting (today).



Due to an excessive tendency towards fancy beverage I have had

  • hot tea x2 (Steven smith British brunch)
  • espresso tonic (so good? Best foam. I have a picture somewhere if you want to see)
  • decaf iced americano (coffee my beloved, but coffee-level caffeine after 1pm my beloathed)
  • water
  • decaf iced tea (red rose does taste a little like paper bags but less than the other kind of decaf black teabag I have)

AND IM JONESIN FOR MORE what do I drink next I got a new sencha that’s tempting me despite the hour
