S&W Craft Roasting

Culled (cold) Brew

These are beans culled from S&W's single origin coffees by their optical sorter—beans deemed imperfect for straight sale but flavorful enough to rescue. After additional hand-sorting to remove quakers and overroasted pieces, they're ground at Mahlkonig setting 6 for immersion brewing. The roaster recommends a 1:12 ratio cold brew steeped 30–36 hours in the refrigerator with periodic agitation, then filtered through fine metal or paper. The blend shifts daily based on production; current tasting notes show peanut butter as the dominant note, followed by fruity sweetness and cocoa in the finish. At a bargain price, this is a smart buy for cold brew enthusiasts willing to dial in immersion or drip tower parameters.
