Ingredients:  
1 cup (4 ounces) whole coffee beans
4 cups water
Coffee or spice grinder
1 1/2 quart (or larger) glass, ceramic, or plastic container
Small strainer
Cheesecloth
Bottle or jar, for storing your cold-brew

Directions:
Grind the coffee beans on the coarsest setting on your grinder, or in short 1-second pulses in a spice grinder. The grounds should look like coarse cornmeal, not fine powder. You should have just under 1 cup of grounds. Transfer the coffee grounds to the container you're using to make the cold brew. Pour the water over top. Stir gently with a long-handled spoon to make sure the grounds are thoroughly saturated with water. Cover the jar with a lid or a small plate to protect it from dust and bugs. Let the coffee steep for about 12 hours. The coffee can be left on the counter or refrigerated; steeping time is the same. Line a small strainer with cheesecloth and place over a large measuring cup or bowl. Pour the coffee through the strainer. Transfer the coffee to a small bottle or jar and store in the fridge for up to a week. Dilute the coffee with as much water or milk as you prefer. Serve over ice or warm for a few minutes in the microwave. Makes 3 cups.
