How Does Nitro Cold Brew Coffee Taste and Its Features
If you haven’t yet tried Nitro Cold Brew Coffee, you’re in for a real treat when you do. But since you are reading this article, you probably already know this and are wondering what are the best options for making Nitro Cold Brew Coffee (NCB).
NCB is rather new on the coffee scene but has become quite popular since its introduction in the early 2010s. Similar to home-brewed beer, NBC can be produced and dispensed on-site, so has spread to coffee shops worldwide. Let’s take a look at our options for how to make NCB.
What Makes Nitro Cold Brew So Attractive?
NCB has taken its place alongside other specialty coffee options, like lattes and cappuccinos, but it has one unique distinguishing characteristic; it does not have any added sugar or milk. Adding nitrogen to the coffee reduces the acidity of the coffee, and creates a creamy texture that actually enhances the taste of the coffee, giving a sweet satiny taste.
It’s kind of like getting a drink that is somewhere between a black coffee, and a latte. You can taste the full rich flavor of the coffee because you do not have milk or sugar masking the taste of the coffee as you do with a lotte.
With no added sugar or milk, NCB is also low in calories and healthy.
Because NCB is served cold, it is a great, cool, refreshing summer drink.
How to Make the Best Cold Brew Coffee
Nitrogen can be added to enhance the flavor of any cold brew coffee, so you can choose your favorite coffee to make it with. Of course, choosing your favorite specialty coffee beans, freshly roasted to your preference, and ground to the coarseness of your choice will obviously give you the best-tasting NCB.
Nitro Brew will usually taste best with a concentration slightly higher than regular coffee. A 1:8 or 1:10 ratio of coffee to water is fairly standard. The coffee should be allowed to steep between 12 and 24 hours, either at room temperature or refrigerated and then filtered. It should be chilled before adding nitrogen.
Nitrogen Infusion.
Now that you have made your cold brew into your favorite formula, it is time to transform it into nitro cold brew by infusing it with nitrogen gas. This is where the coffee takes on its creamy velvety texture.
There are a variety of pitcher-type home brew nitrogen infusers that use canisters of compressed nitrogen to make single batches of NCB. Coffee shops that work in larger volumes will have a machine that will infuse nitrogen into the coffee as it is being served. These machines will use nitrogen from a tank of compressed gas, or they will compress nitrogen from the atmosphere.
Puricom Nitro Cold Brew Coffee Machine
The Puricom Nitro cold brew coffee machine draws cold brew coffee into the machine where it is chilled to the desired temperature. Compressed nitrogen from the atmosphere is infused into the coffee at a low temperature and medium pressure. When the nitro cold brew coffee is extracted from the machine at atmospheric pressure, microbubbles form in the coffee, giving the beverage its fine texture.
Nitro coffee is served on tap and is served cold. Professional extraction technology perfectly retains the original flavor of the coffee as the infused nitrogen gives the coffee its creamy and delicate foam. It takes just seconds to pour, and you will have a consistent pour every time.
The Nitro tap cold brew coffee machine is easy to install and operate and is suitable for cafés, restaurants, bars, hotels, fitness centers, and wherever else people enjoy coffee. Because nitrogen is drawn from the atmosphere, there is no need to worry about buying and changing nitrogen gas tanks. Before pouring, the temperature and nitrogen level can be adjusted to your favorite preference.
With a Puricom Nitro cold brew tap system, you can take your favorite cold brew coffees and add a whole new dimension of flavor to them. If you are a tea lover, the system also makes excellent tea drinks. Whatever your preference, you will enjoy a refreshing taste sensation with every glass.
