1
Grind the Coffee Beans
Start by measuring out 2 cups of coffee beans. Use a coffee grinder to grind them to a medium-coarse consistency, similar to granulated sugar. If you prefer a stronger flavor, you can grind them finer.
2
Boil the Water
In a kettle or pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. You can use filtered water for a better taste.
3
Brew the Coffee
Once the water is boiling, remove it from heat. Add the ground coffee to a French press or a coffee maker. Pour the hot water over the grounds. If using a French press, let it steep for about 4 minutes before pressing down the plunger.
4
Serve the Coffee
Pour the brewed coffee into cups. If desired, add 1 cup of milk, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and a teaspoon of vanilla extract to each cup. Stir well to combine the flavors.
5
Enjoy
Savor your freshly brewed coffee while it’s hot. Adjust milk and sugar to taste.
