Caffeine estimate
Approximately 150-200mg (240ml serving).
Well established — Similar caffeine content to standard cold brew at the same concentration; nitrogen infusion changes texture and mouthfeel, not caffeine content.
Brewing method
Made using Cold brew steeping. Grind: Coarse.
Descriptive grind labels like this are illustrative starting points, not precise measurements — the same label can mean different particle sizes on different grinders. See the grind size guide for how to dial this in on your own equipment.
Steps
- Brew cold brew concentrate as usual, then dilute to serving strength.
- Charge with nitrogen gas through a pressurised tap or canning system.
- Pour without ice so the nitrogen cascade and creamy head remain visible.
