1
Boil the Water
In a kettle or saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat.
2
Prepare the Coffee Grounds
While the water is boiling, measure out 0.5 cups of coffee grounds. You can use your preferred type of coffee (e.g., medium roast, dark roast, etc.).
3
Combine Water and Coffee Grounds
Once the water has boiled, remove it from heat. Add the coffee grounds directly to the hot water and stir gently to ensure even saturation.
4
Steep the Coffee
Cover the pot and allow the coffee to steep for about 4-5 minutes. This allows the flavors to develop.
5
Strain the Coffee
After steeping, use a fine mesh strainer or coffee filter to strain the coffee into a serving pot or carafe, discarding the used coffee grounds.
6
Serve the Coffee
Pour the freshly brewed coffee into mugs. Add sugar and milk to taste, stirring well to combine.
