Cold brewing as a brewing method is growing in popularity as a way to make smooth coffee with less acidity. The Toddy Cold Brew is our accessible choice to cold brewing, and here’s how to get it done:
- Insert the stopper into the outside bottom of the brewing container.
- Dampen the disc-shaped felt filter and insert it into the inside bottom of the brewing container.
- Open the top of your paper filter bag and place the bag into the brewing container. Measure out and pour 340g of coarse-ground coffee into the bag. Our ‘Ground for Plunger’ option on our product packs is perfect.
- Measure and pour 7 cups of water into the bag. Stir the coffee grounds gently with a spoon or spatula to ensure saturation.
- Steep your coffee grounds at room temperature for 12 to 24 hours to create a smooth, rich flavor.
- Place the brewing container on top of the glass decanter. Remove the stopper and let your coffee concentrate flow.
- Remove and discard paper filter and coffee grounds. Coffee concentrate will stay fresh for up to 2 weeks in your refrigerator.
When serving, start with 1 part coffee concentrate, 3 parts water, milk, or soy. Pour over ice for smooth iced coffee, or stir in steaming water for a gentle hot coffee. Our full-bodied bitter-free blends work great both ways, so let your tongue guide the way.

I already have a cold brew system but I have heard your coffee is the ultimate! Was wondering which grind I should order?
Our ‘Ground for Plunger’ option is coarsely ground, making it suitable for most cold brewers. Definitely works well for the Toddy Cold Brew
Hi!
I have a 1.5L cold brew system! I just brought 2x 200g bags and wanted to know how much coffee you would suggest using?
Our recipe above uses a ratio of 340g of grounds to 7 cups (or 1.65L) of water. If you’re using the Toddy then our recommendation is to start by trying that ratio then adjust as you like. If you’re using a different cold brewer this recipe should still be a good starting point, but what’s ideal can vary depending on what you’re working with.
I make my cold brew with my second plunger! This method has worked for me for many years!
Cold brew with the Toddy and Killer Coffee is out of this world, sensational
