Coarsely grind 1/2lb coffee beans.
Place in suitable container (Kilner Jars seem popular) - I opted for a fridge door sized "Lock&Lock" drink 'jug' to keep the space taken up by this 'lab test' to a minimum!
Slowly add 2.5 to 3 pints cold water and gently stir the mix. (This is using a 1 to 5 coffee to water ratio as suggested on some blogs).
One last stir to ensure a good mix the secure lid and leave for 12-24 hours.
Step 2.
Stay tuned...
6/10/15: Well, the coffee kept well for the last 3 weeks. It's now finished and have to say it was pretty good to the last drop. No bitterness at all and handy for making a quick cup of decent tasting coffee. Just add hot water/milk to the cold coffee 'shot' and off you go.
I have another 1/2lb bag of coffee to grind so a second batch is just around the corner.
