    I actually don’t like to be that guy but if you’re brewing with hot water over ice, that’s iced coffee.

    If you’re doing a 2 minute aeropress with cold water… you’re probably getting super- under-extracted cold brew.

    Either way, if you like the result it doesn’t really matter. But cold brew has a certain quality that some people really don’t like (see: James Hoffman).

      I did a fine grind, 5:1 with room temp water inverted in the aero. Stirred for a full minute, then pressed for an additional minute.

      I combined that concentrate with equal parts water, poured over ice, and voila.

      I’m sure you can do better overnight with traditional methods, but in 2 minutes? It was surprisingly decent.
