Coffee Ingredients

Method

Brewing Instructions

  1. 1

    Grind the Coffee Beans

    Using a coffee grinder, grind 0.5 cups of coffee beans to a medium-coarse consistency. Adjust the grind size based on your brewing method.

  2. 2

    Boil Water

    In a kettle, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. If you’re using a French press or pour-over method, let the water sit for about 30 seconds after boiling to reach the ideal temperature.

  3. 3

    Brew the Coffee

    Add the ground coffee to your brewing device. Pour the hot water over the coffee grounds evenly. Let it steep for about 4-5 minutes for a French press or as per your brewing method's instructions.

  4. 4

    Strain the Coffee

    If using a French press, slowly press down the plunger to separate the grounds from the brewed coffee. If using a pour-over, allow the coffee to drip through completely.

  5. 5

    Add Optional Ingredients

    If desired, stir in 0.5 cups of milk, 1 tsp of sugar, and 0.5 tsp of vanilla extract to your brewed coffee. Adjust the sweetness and creaminess to your preference.

  6. 6

    Serve and Enjoy

    Pour the brewed coffee into your favorite mug and enjoy your freshly made coffee hot, or allow it to cool for iced coffee.
