My market doesn sell coffee in 1 lb. (16 ounces) quantities – can I brew less than 1 lb.?
Yes. To cold-brew less than 1 lb. of coffee, pro-rate the amount of water added to the coffee. For example, if brewing 12 ounces of coffee (3/4 lb.), add 3/4 of nine cups of water, or approximately seven cups. The strength of the resulting concentrate may differ slightly from a 1 lb. batch, but realize one of the benefits of using the Toddy system is that you can mix to taste. When making your cup of coffee, simply add a little more or less water to your concentrate to get your preferred strength.
