    Maan is that liqueur top tier!! I followed the exact measures and steps but instead of the cold brew bag (i don't think we have that here) i just mixed the coffee right in and filtered after 24h. Also i used rum instead of vodka (havanna club 3) and used some cheap vanilin essence instead of real vanilla extract (half tea spoon maybe?). But those changes didn't seem to make it less of an impressive coffee liqueur better than any one i've ever bought. Also, very simple recipe! More than the other ones i saw. Very well sir!

      I am making it now with Stolichnaya, which was wat I had on hand. Is that a vodka that Russian people like, or is it like the Dutch with Heineken (most Dutch people either hate it or only tolerate it)?

    • @user-im3xi5ui2u
      @user-im3xi5ui2u 3 роки тому +1

      Michiel Westbeek Russian quality control systems are insanely awful. So Stoli is pretty like Heineken. There is pretty big variety of vodkas in Russia and two large sections: cheap vodka and expensive one. Stoly in Russia is from the first group😂
      Fun fact about Stoli: in the year 1971 it was sold to PepsiCo, and after that became an international foreign brand. So, according to the fact, that this one is international foreign brand and, if it produced within US certification and control systems, it could be pretty good! But it is definitely a trash pick, if got bottle from Russian enterprise)

    Right, two things.
    Don't add syrup to the bottle, it shortens the lifespan of your liqueur substantially and you can add some rich simple syrup at any point when you're mixing your drink.
    Secondly you don't really need a cold brew bag, just strain the mix through a coffee filter when you're bottling it. Otherwise the recipe itself is really great.

    I made this liqueur today. After tasting about 20 ml I felt like I overdosed caffeine. :o So it's extremely strong. I used specialty coffee from a Polish roastery, 50 grams seems to be too much - in the standard cold brew I use 50 grams for 700 ml of water, and maybe vodka extracts the strenghtness more than water?
    Also: it was so strong EVEN THOUGH I stopped the total infusion after 8 hours! Do you think it may be because I didn't use the paper brew bag? Why using the bag is important at all?
    Anyway - it's very tasty if you use good coffee and good vodka (mine was Wyborowa - quite good Polish vodka).

      Those are good questions and unfortunately, since I couldt' taste your liqueur or see exactly how you made it, it's hard for me to say what could have gone wrong. That said, tha bag is mostly just to ease the process and it shouldn't affect the taste. You are correct saying vodka extract more flavours than water but I made this recipe (always using my favourite coffee from local roaster) and I always loved it. So I would say it's probably the coffe here that causes such a big difference. Maybe try s lighter one? But the beauty with this is, if you feel it's too strong, you can always add more vodka after the infusion until you like the balance and then add the sugar. Hope this helps. Cheers

    How much yield comes after each time you infuse because the coffe must take different amount of alcohol into itself and it comes out inconsistent

      Welcome arround Betty! Well that's interesting. You will be able to extract the coffee flavours that's for sure. But the taste will also be different. Will the coffee take over? Just to a certain extent. But not completely. That said... if you like Pisco and coffee together then I'm sure you can give it a try. Let me know if you do. Cheers!

    Hi! I’m normally a third wave coffee person… can I use a medium to light roast coffee for the liqueur or is the taste of coffee not going to be powerful enough for the liqueur ? What’s your thought on that - delicious or weak taste ? Thanks

    • @TrufflesOnTheRocks
      @TrufflesOnTheRocks  Рік тому +1

      My experience is cold brew with light or medium roasts are mediocre hence the choice of dark roast for my liqueur. That said, alcohol is a far more powerful solvent so you might get something good with lighter roast. I just didn’t try it. Hope this helps. Cheers

    Hey! I'm halfway through making it, but mine is turning out extremely cinnamon forward. So I took the cinnamon out (after almost 6 hours of infusion). Was I supposed to take it out after 4 together with the orange peels? It didn't mention in the video. I've added a bit more vodka and am letting it infuse for the rest of the time, hoping the cold brew will overtake the cinnamon again.
    But I can already taste how delicious all these flavours work together, so thank you!

I did try once to infuse whole coffee grains for longer and really didn't like the result. I would suggest to try my recipe and after 24 hours, give it a taste and if you want you can always let it go for a little longer before completing the recipe but I personnally don't think it's necessary.

      Thank for the comment. I hope you give it a try and really wish you’ll like it. On the other hand, I have to say, too much ice in a drink should never be an issue. It’s the opposite. It is simple physics. More ice = colder and slower dilution. Give it a try please. If you think bartenders steal from you with the ice, it is not the case. When the cocktail doesn’t fit in a glass filled with ice, we just select a bigger glass. Cheers
