Cold Kettle Set

A cold kettle set, also known as a cold brew coffee maker set, is a brewing device designed for creating coffee concentrate through prolonged steeping in cold or room temperature water. Unlike traditional hot brewing methods, cold brewing emphasizes extended extraction times to yield a less acidic, smoother coffee.

Material

Components typically include:

• Brewing Container: Commonly glass, stainless steel, or BPA-free plastic. Glass and stainless steel are favored for their inert nature, preventing flavor alteration.
• Filter: Often stainless steel mesh, nylon, or paper filters. Reusable stainless steel filters are common for sustainability. Some sets utilize a combination of filters for finer sediment removal.
• Lid: Usually plastic or glass to seal the container during the brewing process.
• Spigot (optional): Found in some designs for easy dispensing of the concentrate.

Purpose

The primary purpose is to produce cold brew coffee concentrate. This concentrate is then diluted with water, milk, or other liquids to create a ready-to-drink coffee beverage.

Function

Cold brewing functions through immersion. Coffee grounds are fully submerged in water for an extended period, typically 12-24 hours. The low water temperature slows down the extraction process, resulting in:

• Lower Acidity: Reduced extraction of acidic oils.
• Smoother Flavor: Less bitterness and a naturally sweeter profile.
• Higher Caffeine Content: Though debated, cold brew concentrate often yields a higher caffeine concentration.
• Reduced Bitterness: Slower extraction minimizes the extraction of bitter compounds.

Usage Scenarios

• Home Brewing: Most commonly used for personal coffee preparation.
• Cafés & Restaurants: Increasingly popular for offering cold brew as a menu item.
• Outdoor Activities: Portable sets are suitable for camping or picnics.
• Batch Preparation: Allows for making large quantities of concentrate for later use.

Common Types

• Toddy Cold Brew System: A popular, larger-capacity system utilizing a felt filter.
• Takeya Cold Brew Coffee Maker: A pitcher-style system with a stainless steel mesh filter.
• Hario Mizudashi Cold Brew Coffee Pot: A Japanese-style pot with a filter basket.
• OXO Brew Compact Cold Brew Coffee Maker: A compact, easy-to-use system with a stainless steel filter.
• Immersion Systems: General category encompassing pitchers, mason jar setups with filters, and other containers designed for full immersion brewing.
• Drip Systems: Less common, these systems slowly drip water over coffee grounds over a prolonged period.
