I've been drinking a local super market's whole bean bulk brand. Decent selection, reasonably fresh and only $7/lb.

So, the cold brew in a press. I used a "Breakfast Blend". It took some getting used to. It's thin. Both in texture and pressence. I can see how it makes excellent sweetened ice coffee. I think condensed milk or even just Half-and-Half is all that is needed.

I don't care for the oily head and more noticable particulates. Nor the way those coat the cup. It seemed to get more bitter going through the cup. I drank it with just a little Half-and-Half to make it feel a little more heavy. I also tried with a mixing it down 1/3 with hot water.

Conclusion: Great for a less robust, but still tasty cup of coffee. Would be perfect for hot summer days. Going back piping hot for the regular morning routine. Maybe a lighter roast would be better.
