Cold brew coffee has become wildly popular with consumers of all ages and is quick ly becoming a mainstay in the coffee category Known for its reduced acidity and dis tinct bold flavor, cold brew coffee can be enjoyed throughout the day, which can open up sales opportunities for convenience stores There is, however, one very large obstacle that operators consistently run into when making cold brew coffee
n
An interview with Robb Northrup, Director of Marketing, siffron
n t
Preparing fresh, cold brew coffee takes time a lot of time The ambient water temperature requires 12+ hours to extract the coffee compared to minutes when brewing with hot water. This preparation time creates operational challenges and makes it almost impossible to gauge the volume of cold brew need ed for the following day The inability to forecast demand often translates into lost sales and unhappy customers when the product runs out during busi ness hours Cold brewing processes using traditional soaking systems can also be messy and cumbersome How can an operator meet the high demands for cold brew coffee?
