Bruer® Cold Brew System - Brewing Guide
Step 1. Measure Your Coffee
Measure out 2/3 cup (60 grams) of ground coffee.
We recommend using:
- A medium grind level (eg. pour over grind)
- Fresh roasted coffee
- Medium roast
Step 2. Assembling The Filter
When assembling the filter make
sure the finer side of the mesh
is facing up.
Pop the glass tower into the filter.
Step 3. Add Coffee To The Tower
Pour the measured ground coffee into
the tower, brush any loose grounds
down into the chamber.
Shake the Tower to level out the coffee bed.
Step 4. Drop In A Paper Filter
Carefully place the Tower into the Carafe.
Drop a Paper Filter on top
of the coffee bed.
Step 5. Pre-wet The Coffee
Pre-wet the coffee with about two fl.
ounces of water to evenly soak the
grounds.
Step 6. Insert The Valve
Carefully push the plug down
into the tower.
Wet the lip of the seal to
help it slide in easily.
Step 7. Measure Out Your Water
Measure out 24 fl. ounces of an ice
and water mixture
(about half water and half ice).
Pour the mixture into the tower.
Step 8. Setting The Drip Rate
When the Laser Etched Line on the
Stainless Steel Valve Tube lines up with
the slot in the silicone, the Valve
will be fully open.
Turn the Knob clockwise to slow down
the drip rate. We recommend setting
the drip rate to one drip per second
which will fall somewhere in
the "target range."
