Coffee Preparation Instructions
- 1
Grind the Coffee Beans
Using a coffee grinder, grind the coffee beans to a medium-coarse consistency. Make sure not to over-grind, as it can lead to a bitter taste.

Boil the Water
In a kettle, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. The water should be just off the boil when you add it to the coffee grounds to avoid scalding.

Brew the Coffee
Place the ground coffee in a coffee maker or a French press. Pour the hot water over the coffee grounds and let it steep for about 4-5 minutes.

Strain the Coffee
If using a French press, press down the plunger to separate the coffee grounds from the brewed coffee. If using a coffee maker, simply pour the brewed coffee into a carafe.
