For anyone interested in a convertion of grams to cups: it is approximately 1 and 1/4 cups of grounds.

Best cold brew ever.. There's a line in the middle of the strainer that's roughly about 250g of coarsely grounded coffee if you haven't got a scale to measure. Top up with water til you get close to the strainer handle. Its simple... its not rocket science.. Steep for no more than 24hrs.. Strain and use the coffee grinds as compost.. No waste..

My cold brew keeps ending up tasting bitter. I followed these instructions exactly. I tried new coffee grounds. I let it brew out of the fridge. Nothing. Still bitter tasting.

Any recommendations?

250g of ground?!?! With 200g, I was already at the strainer line. WTH...

Don't fret or worry if you haven't got a scale.
If you are using store bought coffee , fill add grounds to the line in steeper .
if u grind use your own ground beans fill with grounds to half past the line and top of steeper .
Slowly Add water to grounds , fill to top of unit .
Steep /brew for 12 - 24 hrs or desired time.
Lift steeper, let steeper drain leftover liquid /add to container.
Fill with /add additional water to top of container and you have 42 ounces of one to one coffee concentrate . I get five 16 oz serving s of great cold brewed iced coffee . To make use
8 ounces of coffee + 8 ounces skim /whole milk or water and full cup of ice .
If not using ice add additional milk/ water .
I use vanilla flavored stevia & monk fruit liquid for sweetener.

Why in the world do they say 250 grams of coffee? I don't have a scale, I've got measuring cups!

Just buy good quality Arabica variety coffee that has been well washed with clean water and well picked(only mature beans selected ) and you wont need to do cold brew coffee. Well selected beans and well washed coffee wont be bitter and they will have low acidity. Arabica= sweetest coffee type. Dont roast it very dark
