Yield Specifications

Coffee/Sugar Mixture	2 gallons = 40 servings
Iced Coffee Mix	1 batch = 10 servings

Preparing Flavoring Syrup Pumps

• Twist the pump until the top is all the way up
• Place the tube inside the syrup
• Before twisting the pump onto the syrup bottle, slowly push down on the pump approximately three times
• This will pull some of the syrup into the pump so it does not spill over when twisted onto the syrup bottle

Preparing and Holding Coffee/Sugar Mixture

• Measure 32 ounces (4 cups) of sugar and pour into a 2-gallon plastic container
• When the hold time for brewed regular coffee has expired, pour any remaining coffee into the plastic container with the sugar
• DO NOT USE DECAF COFFEE IN THE COFFEE/SUGAR MIXTURE
• Using a wire whisk, stir the coffee/sugar mixture. Stir each time more coffee is added to ensure the sugar is dissolved  
• Once the container contains 2 gallons of coffee, cover with a plastic lid and write the discard date on the lid
• The coffee/sugar mixture can be held for up to 4 days
• Place the covered container in the cooler until it reaches a temperature of 34°F - 41°F

Preparing and Holding Iced Coffee Mix

• Once the coffee/sugar mixture has cooled to the appropriate temperature, the iced coffee mix can be prepared
• Measure 64 ounces (1/2 gallon) of the cooled coffee/sugar mixture and pour into a 1-gallon pitcher
• Measure 24 ounces of milk from the milk dispenser. Pour into the pitcher with the coffee/sugar mixture
• Measure 12 ounces of light cream and add to the 1-gallon pitcher
• DO NOT ADD HOT COFFEE TO THE ICED COFFEE MIX, AS THIS WILL CAUSE THE MILK CREAM TO CURDLE  
• Use a wire whisk to thoroughly stir the iced coffee mix. Stir for at least 45 seconds
• Write the 2 day discard date on the top of the pitcher
• Cover and place in the walk-in cooler or in the reach-in cooler on the frontline
• Any iced coffee mix remaining at close on the discard date must be discarded
