Method

Brewing Instructions

  1. 1

    Grind the Coffee Beans

    Begin by measuring 0.5 cups of dark roast coffee beans. Use a coffee grinder to grind the beans to a medium-coarse consistency. This allows for optimal extraction during the brewing process.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Coffee Maker

    Fill your coffee maker's water reservoir with 16 fl oz of fresh, cold water. Ensure that the coffee maker is clean and ready for use.

  3. 3

    Add Coffee Grounds

    Place the ground coffee into the coffee filter or the brewing basket of your coffee maker. Make sure it is evenly distributed for uniform brewing.

  4. 4

    Brew the Coffee

    Turn on the coffee maker and allow it to brew the coffee. This process should take about 5-10 minutes, depending on your coffee maker.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once brewing is complete, pour the freshly brewed dark roast coffee into your favorite mug. Enjoy it black or with your choice of cream and sugar.
