Don Francisco's Organic Cold Brew Coffee Pitcher Packs, Med-Dark Roast, 8ct

I love the taste of this cold brew. I put mine in 5 cups of water for 24 hours to let it steep, pushing the bags down for a little to wet them and then placing the container in the fridge. The next day I pull the bags out and add fresh water to the mix, taking the level up to 8 cups. Then, every morning, I drink one cup with a little bit of whole milk and ice. Mmmm! Delicious! Definitely way cheaper than going out for coffee. I find this brew very smooth with not acidityto speak of and a pleasing, dark color.

Easy to use, delicious.

Dis cold brew is da bomb!

makes very tasty cold brew. i let mine steep for at least 24 hours, sometimes 36...i like my cold brew strong. it never turns out bitter though. bang for your buck, you can't beat these packs. deducted 1 star because you have to be very careful with the packs. when you tear open the outer package, be very careful not to catch the filter bag or you will tear it. after they've soaked for 24 hours you need to remove the bags from the water VERY gently or they will tear wide open. it's not the end of the world, you just have to strain the coffee through cheesecloth or something similar, but it is annoying. i use a jar with a very wide mouth and i remove the bags using a medium sized ladle to scoop the bag out, then GENTLY squeeze the coffee out before tossing it. since i started doing it that way, i haven't torn any filters again.

excellent taste. no mess

I have never tried cold brew coffee It was recommended because I have Gerd. It works. So happy to enjoy coffee again

It says handle gently as you remove the coffee bag from the pitcher after 24 hrs of brewing. I handled the bags very gently. The first bag tore slightly, but I pulled it out. The second bag tore completely open, spilling grounds in the pitcher and on the counter. I had to pour the liquid and grounds out into another container, then use a sieve and a coffee filter to remove the grounds and save the liquid coffee. The vendor needs to use stronger coffee bags to hold this coffee. I decided to buy spare coffee filter bags to prevent a second "accident". The coffee is very good. But I have to think about buying this again. I bought filters (4X6" tea filters, see 2nd pix). It worked.

This is the cheapest, organic cold brew you can buy and I love it, but there was a learning curve. Here are mistakes I've made : I brewed it in a loosely covered pitcher. It tasted burnt. When they say " air tight lid" they really mean it. It makes a big difference. I brew it now in a 'wide mouth' 7 cup (1500ml) Ball Jar and it is perfect for me BUT you have to be VERY careful getting the coffee packs out of the 3.5 inch mouth. Don't grab the top of the pack and pull it out or it can get stuck in the mouth and rip. After 24 hours in water the packs can be as fragile as wet paper. I would suggest a wider mouth than that for whatever container you are using. Cleaning up a broken bag (by pouring the coffee through a gold filter into a second container and then washing everything is a lot of effort to get a coffee. If you are going to use a container with a 3.5 inch mouth, take the time to roll the pack into a 'length-wise tube' with your fingers, yes, in the coffee jar. Yes, they might go partially in the coffee. Please wash your hands well first. Once you get the hang of it, it's incredibly easy and not a big deal. I hope this helps.

I didn't have high hopes for cold brew coffee from what is essentially pre-packed coffee grounds. But this is surprisingly good. I use it with a normal glass pitcher and soak it as per the instructions. What comes out is great tasting cold brew coffee that's strong enough to be diluted as per your liking. The only thing is that the paper packaging is a little flimsy, so you have to be careful when removing the pack from your pitcher otherwise you're going to get coffee grounds in your cold brew. Nothing major though, just wish that the price is friendly for a regular purchase.

Never been into coffee except in desserts. Was very curious about cold brew after reading about the health benefits and smoother taste. Boy, am I glad I tried it. Don Francisco's Organic Cold Brew is smooth & flavourful with chocolate & caramel notes. Drunk black with ice and added water it goes down like a treat. Definitely a convert as long as it cold brewed. Now I just have to get used to the caffeine in my system.
