FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can you make iced coffee with hot coffee?
Absolutely. The challenge? Usually, you′d need to wait for the coffee to cool and/or risk a watery taste from fast-melting ice. That′s why there′s Dunkin′ Cold coffee. It′s specially crafted to be brewed hot and enjoyed over ice immediately. No waiting for it to cool, just the Dunkin′ taste you love, served cold.
Does Dunkin' Cold coffee have to be chilled or cooled down before I can enjoy it over ice?
No, Dunkin′ Cold coffee is a bold coffee designed to stand up to ice. You can brew it hot and serve it with ice immediately.
What's the best way to make iced coffee at home?
The best way to make iced coffee at home is with a product that′s made to hold its own against ice — i.e., Dunkin′ Cold K-Cup® pods, ground coffee or instant coffee packs. That way, you can get all the flavor you crave with no need to wait. You can brew the coffee hot or simply add water, and immediately serve it on ice without making your iced coffee watery.
What's the difference between iced coffee and cold brew?
Iced coffee is typically coffee that′s brewed a little stronger than usual with a traditional hot brew method, then cooled and served over ice. But Dunkin′ Cold ground coffee and K-Cup® pods let you make delicious iced coffee without as much waiting, since you can brew the coffee hot or simply add water and immediately serve it over ice.
Cold brew coffee is actually brewed cold by soaking the coffee in cool water for several hours. Dunkin′ Cold Brew Concentrate and Dunkin′ Cold Brew Packs are some of the easiest ways to make cold brew at home — no measuring, and no need for any sort of coffee maker. Just add water to your Dunkin' Cold Brew Concentrate, or drop a Dunkin' Cold Brew Coffee Pack in a regular pitcher of water to steep overnight in the fridge, and add water to taste in the morning.
What's the right cold brew ratio?
The coffee-to-water ratio for cold brew depends on the type of coffee you′re using and how strong you want it to taste. We suggest starting with 6 ounces of Dunkin' Cold Brew Concentrate and 5 ounces of water. You can always add more concentrate or water to customize the strength. If using Dunkin′ Cold Brew Packs, we recommend steeping 2 pouches in 4 cups of water overnight and then adding 3 cups of cold water, but you can add more or less water at the end, depending on your preference.
