• We do not recommend brewing directly into airpots or other insulated
dispensers. Coffee will not cool to proper temperature.
• Allow at least 10 minutes for ice to fully melt into hot concentrate
before serving.
• Serve over ice at room temperature or from cooler (refrigerated) to avoid
further dilution.
• Shelf life of brewed iced coffee:
• 4 hours at room temperature
• 8 hours refrigerated
