Are you curious about nitro cold brew but worried it might be too bitter for your taste? Let’s break it down!
What is Nitro Cold Brew?
Nitro cold brew is a refreshing twist on regular cold brew coffee. It starts as cold brew coffee, made by steeping coarse coffee grounds in cold water for an extended period, typically 12-24 hours. The key difference? Nitro cold brew is infused with nitrogen gas, giving it a creamy texture and a unique mouthfeel, similar to a stout beer. This infusion creates tiny nitrogen bubbles that enhance the coffee's flavor and presentation, resulting in a smooth, velvety drink.
How Does It Taste?
While nitro cold brew is often perceived as having a slight sweetness due to its creamy texture, it is generally less bitter than traditional coffee. The nitrogen infusion helps mellow out the flavors, making it a delightful option for those who may find regular coffee too harsh.
