The information below are the directions from our Alto cold brew filters page
Here's how we brew using the Alto medium brewing filters:
Alto Cold Brew filters size medium are ideal for quart and half gallon batches of cold brew (varies to brew vessel size) we use approx. 48 oz. of water in a 2 quart jar & approx. 6 oz. or 170 grams of coarse ground coffee.
For a 2 quart jar method we brew with approx. 48 ounces of filtered water to 6 oz. or 170 g of coarse ground coffee.
It's important to pour your filtered water in the center of the grounds prior to closing the filter with the drawstring. This will thoroughly wet the grounds, picture #5 on the Alto filter page shows this procedure.
Steep grounds in a wide mouth jar or drink pitcher (opening of jar or pitcher should be larger than 2.5") for 12 to 16 hours as suggested by Alto. After steeping simply dispose of the filter bag or place the coffee grounds in your compost.
We steep in the refrigerator and extend the steep time to 24hrs-36hrs., this produces a similar brew strength to the shorter room temperature brew of 12-16 hrs. If the brew strength is slightly concentrated either dilute with filtered water and ice or add milk, cream, simple syrup or flavored syrups to your desired taste preference.
