Though I do love my french press coffee maker, the cold brew system is great. It probably isn't the same thing the Fairmont used, but it does have its benefits. You add coffee grounds and cold water and leave overnight, then filter in the morning. The result is a concentrated coffee liquid that is great for cooking and making all kinds of iced coffee beverages. The liquid lasts for three weeks in the refrigerator. To make regular coffee, you just add hot water. The results are very smooth and slightly less acidic than other brewing methods.
