You gotta be tough to drink a real man's coffee. What is a burnt tongue and a few scabs on your forearm to a good tasting, nerve jangling brew that keeps your eyeballs rotating all morning?

If they did not have coffee, then the decline in US worker productivity would cost the economy 1.62 billion dollars per day in reduced output.

Making extract is best informed by experience with a French press. I've never had any luck with cold brewing. Use 1-2 times as much 190-200 F water as freshly roasted coarsely to medium ground coffee by volume, steeping 3 to 5 minutes in a giant measuring cup. Stir at first but let settle, so most grounds stay behind. Pour through cheesecloth, and bottle in glass with tight caps. One could use a fast filter, with some loss of flavor and sediment. Serve from the bottles as if decanting wine, and the remaining sediment will show a stubborn preference for the bottom of the bottle even at cleaning time

cold water coffee, with cheesecloth

Save your $35...you don't need to buy a special brewer to make cold brew coffee! Mix 1 lb. of coffee with 1 quart of water and let it steep for 12 hours; when it's done, just pour it through a filter of your choice -- a standard automatic drip coffee filter would probably work. Possibly several layers of cheesecloth would work, too.

you owe it to yourself to read up on Coffee:

excerpt:

<<Caffeine not only blocks the action of adenosine, it also stimulates the adrenal glands to produce two stress hormones - adrenalin and cortisol. This gives a small kick to the system and, as part of the enjoyment of an occasional capuccino, is no bad thing. But regular coffee drinkers are keeping their bodies on a constant state of emergency by stimulating themselves with caffeine. Imagine that your adrenal glands are like a bank account. Genetic factors and your lifestyle determine how long you can continue to make repeated withdrawals against your energy reserves and still maintain good health. If you are one of those coffee drinkers who think that they get no effect from caffeine, you need to think again. If you can go to sleep right after a double shot of espresso, ask yourself why your adrenal glands have stopped responding and what that says about your adrenal health.>>

In addition, coffee elevates cortisol levels, which can accelerate the aging process.

It is the caffeine in coffee which makes it addictive, and which accounts for most of the known adverse effects of coffee. However, there are hundreds of other chemicals in coffee. Caffeine is a carcinogen, but coffee contains numerous other ones, created by the high heat of roasting, such as creosote, pymdine, tars and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The darker the roast, the greater the potential hazard.
