For cold brew vs traditional hot coffee, you have to tinker around with certain things. You may use different amounts of milk, milk type, ice/no ice and sugar when you prepare it to your liking. Same amount by volume of coffee doesn't necessarily apply.

For the milk thing, I wonder if some people prefer a creamy coffee when hot (ie: Crema) but for cold brew, they prefer a cleaner more refreshing drink. It's not wrong to drink cold brew with milk and sugar though. I'm just guessing as to why milk is reduced and attempting to answer it.
I am just trying to figure out how to reduce any creamer in the coffee now. Any place I can reduce my sugar I would love to do that. If it means trying cold brew during the winter that's cool. It just gets expensive to buy the already brewed stuff.

I guess how much work does it take to make 4L of cold brew?
