    Does the hot water improve things? I’ve always done similar to corgi, with 225g of coarse ground beans in a 3l mason jar overnight, then filtered through a cheesecloth.

      Definetly, but only if you’re using a light roast coffee. It’s called a “hot bloom”. There are some compounds in the coffee that will only come out with hot water so you get a more complex final product. It’s important that the water is only hot for less than a minute or it can come out bitter.
