Learn the exact steps to brew Stone Street Coffee Cold Brew Fudge 2LB at home for a smooth, chocolatey concentrate. Tips on ratio, steeping, and storage included.

Quick Answer

Use a 1:4 coffee-to-water ratio, steep for 18-24 hours at room temperature, then filter twice for a smooth, rich chocolate cold brew concentrate.

Why This Blend Works for Cold Brew

Cold Brew Fudge 2LB is a Signature Series blend made from 100% arabica beans, designed to bring out smooth, bold cold brew notes with natural fudge sweetness. The chocolate-inspired flavors become more pronounced during long, cold steeping, making it ideal for a rich concentrate without bitterness.

Choosing the Right Grind

For cold brew, a coarse grind is essential to avoid over-extraction and sediment. The Cold Brew Fudge 2LB is available in multiple grind options; select 'Coarse' if offered, or use a burr grinder at home. A too-fine grind can make the brew muddy and harsh.

Steps to Brew Cold Brew Fudge Concentrate

Measure Coffee and Water: Use a 1:4 ratio by weight—for example, 1 cup (about 120g) of coarsely ground Cold Brew Fudge to 4 cups (960ml) of cold, filtered water. This yields a concentrate that you can dilute later. Common mistake: using a 1:8 ratio for ready-to-drink strength. Stick to 1:4 for a concentrate that lasts longer.
Combine and Steep: Mix the grounds and water in a large jar or pitcher. Stir gently to ensure all grounds are saturated. Cover and let steep at room temperature for 18-24 hours. Avoid refrigerating during steeping—it slows extraction and reduces chocolate notes. Checkpoint: after 18 hours, taste a small sample. If it's too weak, steep up to 24 hours; if bitter, stop earlier.
Filter Twice for Clarity: Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve lined with a coffee filter or a nut milk bag. Discard the grounds. For an ultra-smooth concentrate, filter a second time through a paper filter or a clean cloth. Common mistake: skipping the second filter. This leaves fine sediment that can make the concentrate gritty.
Store and Serve: Transfer the concentrate to a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. To serve, dilute with equal parts water or milk (or to taste) over ice. Add a splash of cream or vanilla for extra richness.
