East View Classic Cold Brew Coffee Blend

East View Classic Cold Brew Coffee Blend combines Colombia, dark-roast Sumatra, and Brazil for a bold, chocolatey, sweet cold brew. East View tested the house blend beside several new ideas during a customer tasting, and the original earned the strongest response. That result shaped its position as the dependable cold brew to keep in the refrigerator: substantial enough to drink over ice, yet composed to work with milk or sweetener. Whole-bean and very-coarse ground options are offered in 12-ounce, 2-pound, and 5-pound sizes.

Coffee profile

Origin, process and roast approach

The blend's origin structure is documented, but exact component percentages, farms, cultivars, and processing methods are not. The “chocolatey” description is a sensory note, not added chocolate flavoring. Cold extraction reduces the role of heat and relies on grind, brew ratio, agitation, and time to manage solubility. The included dark-roast Sumatra is intended to supply depth, while Colombia and Brazil complete the blend's sweetness and structure. East View's tasting story supports the recipe's continuity without claiming that one method will suit every brewer.

Brewing guidance

For ready-to-drink cold brew, combine 85 grams of very coarsely ground coffee with 1,000 grams of cool filtered water, roughly 1:12. Steep 14–16 hours in the refrigerator, filter thoroughly, and taste before diluting. For concentrate, use 125 grams per 1,000 grams of water, then serve one part concentrate with one part water or milk as a starting point. If the brew is weak, grind slightly finer or steep longer; if it is muddy or drying, grind coarser or shorten the steep. Keep all equipment clean and refrigerate the finished brew promptly.

Choosing a method and format

Cold brew is sensitive to sanitation and filtration. Use a clean, food-safe container, filtered water, and a grind coarse enough to separate after the steep. Fine sediment continues extracting and can make the finish silty. After filtering, label the batch date and keep the beverage refrigerated. Make only the quantity you can use promptly; cold temperature slows change but does not make brewed coffee permanent. Serve concentrate by weight or measured volume so dilution stays consistent from glass to glass. The available very-coarse ground option removes one variable, while whole bean gives you control when your grinder can produce an even coarse setting.

Dialing in, freshness and equipment

Judge cold brew after it has been filtered and chilled, because temperature and dilution change perceived sweetness and body. Record coffee weight, water weight, grind, steep time, and final dilution. Avoid calling a scoop-based recipe repeatable; a scale makes results transferable. The Turin DF64 Gen 2 can produce measured grind adjustments for small batches. Browse the Specialty Coffee collection if you want to compare single origins with a purpose-built cold-brew blend.

For best results, buy the format that matches your equipment. Whole bean preserves more aroma until grinding; ground coffee prioritizes convenience. Store the sealed coffee in a cool, dry cabinet and avoid refrigeration after opening. Orders placed through Espresso Outlet are routed to the roasting partner for fulfillment, so roast and dispatch timing follow that partner's workflow.
