The invention relates to a method for preparing cold-extracted coffee, which comprises the following steps: injecting hot water into coffee
powder for braising and
steaming, and then injecting cold water for trickling
filtration to obtain the cold-extracted coffee, wherein the temperature of the hot water is 40-70 DEG C; the temperature of the cold water is 2-15 DEG C. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the coffee
powder is braised and steamed at a relative low temperature of 40-70 DEG C before cold extraction, so that
carbon dioxide accumulated in the coffee
powder can be promoted to be discharged, contact between water and coffee is promoted, and the extraction efficiency is effectively improved; according to the method, aromatic substances and
grease in the coffee can be completely dissolved out,
dissolution of bad
flavor components in the coffee is reduced, and sourness and bitterness are reduced, so that the prepared cold-extracted coffee has the multi-layer
flavor of hand-brewed coffee and the smooth taste of the cold-extracted coffee. And on the other hand, the method provided by the invention ensures that the coffee has rich
flavor and
smooth mouth feel, effectively shortens the making time of the cold extraction coffee, reduces the making difficulty, has high product stability and
high food safety, and can provide a temperature at which the cold extraction coffee is easier to eat.
