Can You Drink Cold Brew Coffee Hot?

Yes, it is possible to reheat cold-brewed coffee! While heating a cold brew and drinking it hot may have a slight negative impact on the flavor, there is no danger in doing so.The acidity of the cold brew is kept lower by adding hot water to it rather than heating the coffee itself.

While cold-brew coffee is made by steeping coarsely ground coffee beans in room-temperature water for six to twelve hours, espresso is made by brewing coffee with finely ground beans. This results in a coffee concentrate that can be combined with cold water or milk.

To get the most heat out of your cold brew, brew it at a high concentration so that when it's time to mix it with hot water, you can use as much hot water as you possibly can.

Unfortunately, there are some disadvantages to both approaches. The former significantly dilutes your brew, and coffee that has been sitting around for hours will never taste as good as it should.

Those who are sensitive to acid assert that it is easier to drink than hot coffee, while cold-brew enthusiasts claim that the drink has a smoother flavor. However, according to some estimates, cold-brewed coffee contains 67 percent less acid than hot-brewed coffee.

Generally speaking, cold brew coffee has less caffeine in it than the same amount of hot coffee, but there are many factors that influence the caffeine levels in coffee, including the provenance or blend of the beans and the manner in which they are roasted and ground before being brewed.

About US | OCM Profile

OCM (OnCoffeeMakers.com) was started in 2007 with the first webpage about coffee machines. And for a number of years, we focused on helping people find their desired coffee machine (we still are helping folks with that! So, if you are looking for coffee machines for office or restaurants - check out the link).
