How do you filter cold brew?

Anonymous
I have an OXO Cold Brew Coffee maker but it takes darn near forever to drain and eventually just stops up completely. I end up scraping and shifting the ground around with a knife to get it to drain. Similarly with pouring it from a large jar or pitcher through a a strainer lined with a coffee filter. I first strain our large grounds with a bead strainer then pour through the filter. Eventually clogs. I am doing a coarse grind with a burr grinder. Is there another way?

OP—should add that I make a large quantity and it’s a concentrate ratio. So a lot of grounds.

I brew mine with a Toddy:

It lasts about 2 weeks.

Strain out large grounds with a mesh strainer…

With great difficulty. I usually end up running it twice through a nut milk bag, then letting it settle well, and doing one final pass through a plastic mesh cup-style tea strainer and sacrificing the last inch or so to the dregs.

We use a filtron.

Sounds like your country is probably covered with child brew coffee drops too. Solidarity.

I don’t have nut milk bags but have considered getting one to make my own milk alternatives.

Sorry I can’t proofread today! Counter cold drips.

Toddy with a filter bag plus the white mesh filter. Drains easily.

Put coffe grounds in a Muslin bag in a pot of water overnight. Squeeze it out the next morning. Rinse bag and dry.
