Nitro coffee is gaining increasing popularity, with numerous restaurants and coffee chains around the world adding it to their menus. In summary, nitro coffee refers to a cold brew coffee infused with nitrogen, resulting in an incredibly creamy black coffee with a texture reminiscent of a high-quality brown or black beer.
Cold brew coffee
Cold brew, or cold extracted coffee, should not be confused with iced coffee. During the preparation of cold brew, fresh coffee grounds are rinsed in room temperature water for 10-12 hours, and then filtered at the end of the process. The coffee does not come into contact with hot water, so due to chemical processes different from traditional brewing methods, the coffee is softer, sweeter and contains less acid, making it less harsh on the stomach. Despite having lower caffeine content, it has a long-lasting effect.

The addition of nitrogen gas to cold brew coffee not only affects its texture but also its flavor. As a result, the drink tastes sweeter even without adding sugar, honey, or any other sweetener. There is no need to add dairy products either, as the texture of nitro coffee on its own is exceptionally smooth, lacking the typical „harshness” of regular coffee. In coffee shops, nitro coffee is often served using equipment similar to a beer tap, but it can also be easily prepared at home using LISS nitrogen cartridges and a whipped cream dispenser.
