Coffee Ingredients

Method

Brewing Coffee

  1. 1

    Grind the Coffee Beans

    Using a coffee grinder, grind 1 cup of fresh coffee beans to a medium-coarse consistency. This will enhance the flavor and aroma of the coffee.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Water

    In a kettle, bring 4 cups of fresh, cold water to a boil. Ensure that the water is filtered for the best taste.

  3. 3

    Brewing the Coffee

    In a French press or coffee maker, combine the ground coffee with the boiling water. Stir gently to ensure that all coffee grounds are saturated.

  4. 4

    Steep the Coffee

    Let the coffee steep for about 4 minutes. If using a French press, press down the filter slowly and steadily.

  5. 5

    Serving the Coffee

    Pour the freshly brewed coffee into a cup. Add 0.5 cups of milk, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract for flavoring. Stir well and enjoy your coffee!
