1
Measure Coffee Grounds
Measure out 0.5 cups of coffee grounds using a measuring cup.
2
Boil Water
In a kettle or pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. This will be used to brew the coffee.
3
Combine Coffee Grounds and Water
In a coffee maker or French press, add the measured coffee grounds. Slowly pour the boiling water over the coffee grounds.
4
Steep or Brew
Allow the coffee to steep for about 4-5 minutes if using a French press, or follow the instructions of your coffee maker.
5
Press or Filter
If using a French press, press down the plunger to separate the grounds from the brewed coffee. If using a coffee maker, simply wait for the brewing process to finish.
