In January 2015, on the hottest day ever recorded in Austin, TX, the founders of Ofrenda were asked to serve 6,000 cups of coffee in just one hour. On that scorching day, no one wanted hot coffee — so they pivoted, offering a cold brew with white chocolate instead. The response was overwhelming, and from that moment, the vision for a company dedicated to cold brew coffee was born.

Over the next several years, the founders searched tirelessly for the best equipment to produce safe, consistent, high-quality cold brew concentrate. After nearly giving up in 2022, they finally discovered the solution: a new method that extracted roasted coffee more safely, produced a cleaner coffee extract, and reduced brewing time from hours to mere minutes.
