How to Make the Perfect Cold Brew Coffee – Rudy Coffee Style
There’s nothing quite like a great cup of coffee—but when the weather heats up, cold brew is the ultimate way to enjoy your favorite drink any time of day, even at the beach.
Here’s Rudy Coffee’s easy, step-by-step guide to brewing the perfect cold brew at home. Refreshing, bold, and smooth—every time.
1. Start with the Right Beans
Great cold brew starts with great beans. Choose freshly roasted, high-quality coffee like Rudy Coffee. We recommend a darker roast for cold brew—it delivers a bold, rich flavor that stands up well to ice and milk.
2. Grind It Coarse
Grind your beans to a coarse consistency, similar to raw sugar. A coarse grind helps reduce bitterness and makes the straining process much easier.

3. Mix with Cold Water and Steep
Combine your ground coffee and cold water in a container with a lid—think mason jar, French press, or a pitcher. A good starting ratio is equal parts coffee grounds to water. You can always add water at after brewing to make it taste the way you like.
Make sure all the grounds are fully submerged, cover, and let steep at room temperature or in the fridge for 12–24 hours.
4. Strain Like a Pro
Once it’s steeped, strain your cold brew using a fine-mesh sieve, cheesecloth, or a coffee filter. Pour into a clean jar or bottle for storage. Your cold brew will stay fresh in the fridge for up to one week.

5. Serve & Enjoy
Serve over ice and customize to taste! Add milk, cream, sweeteners, or your favorite flavored syrups for a twist. Or keep it bold and black—Rudy style.
