Coffee Recipe

Coffee Preparation Directions

1. 1

   Grinding the Coffee Beans

   Start by measuring out 1 cup of coffee beans. Use a coffee grinder to grind the beans to a medium-coarse consistency, suitable for brewing.

2. 2

   Boiling Water

   In a kettle or pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, remove it from heat and let it cool for about 30 seconds to reach the optimal brewing temperature of around 200°F (93°C).

3. 3

   Brewing the Coffee

   Place the ground coffee in a coffee maker or French press. Pour the hot water over the coffee grounds, ensuring they are fully saturated. Let it steep for about 4-5 minutes.

4. 4

   Straining the Coffee

   If you used a French press, slowly press the plunger down to separate the grounds from the brewed coffee. If using a coffee maker, simply wait for the brewing process to complete.

5. 5

   Adding Milk and Sugar (Optional)

   If desired, add 1 cup of milk to your brewed coffee. You can also add sugar to taste. Stir well to combine.

6. 6

   Flavoring (Optional)

   For a hint of sweetness and flavor, you may add 1 tsp of vanilla extract. Stir again to mix the flavors.

7. 7

   Serving the Coffee

   Pour the brewed coffee into mugs and serve hot. Enjoy your freshly made coffee!
