1
Measure the Coffee
Using a tablespoon, measure out 2 tablespoons of ground coffee. Adjust the amount based on your taste preference for a stronger or milder brew.
2
Boil the Water
In a kettle or pot, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Ensure that the water reaches a rolling boil for optimal extraction of flavors.
3
Combine Coffee and Water
Once the water is boiling, pour it over the ground coffee in a coffee maker or a French press. Make sure all the coffee grounds are saturated.
4
Steep the Coffee
Allow the coffee to steep for about 4-5 minutes. This will help extract the rich flavors and aromas from the coffee grounds.
5
Strain the Coffee
If using a French press, press down the plunger to separate the grounds from the liquid. If using a coffee maker, simply let the machine finish brewing.
6
Serve the Coffee
Pour the brewed coffee into a mug. Add sugar, milk, cream, or vanilla extract as desired, and stir well. Serve hot and enjoy!
