I've heard that the best filtration for a cold process coffee is Bold|Java's socks... well one of those cloth sock filters.  I picked one up and tried it with a hot brew.  I've heard that mesh filter bags are even better for larger batches.  There's been a lot of posts on HB and blog posts on cold process versus flash brewed iced coffees lately.

I may just have to try this out, with or without the agitation.

I'm surprised that we haven't had one of our other best agitators, Tex, comment on this thread yet.   ;D

That's a good point.

Robert is not up to his agitating old self yet.

We should agitate Robert a little to put him back on course.

Hmmm ... I suppose a regular teaspoon is out of the question?

 ???

A PID'd teaspoon? or one with a variac?

Oh no ... my solution is much more high tech ... I mean a steel spoon and you submerge into the coffee and use your hand to stir.

We are thinking green after all.

So then you put a router controller on your hand? Is it electric or gas? Maybe a proportioning valve of sorts. a usb to serial interface at least

If the hand belongs to Tex, i am pretty sure there are a lot of gas emissions out the backside.
