Coffee Ingredients

Method

Brewing Instructions

  1. 1

    Grind the Coffee Beans

    Using a coffee grinder, grind the Colombian coffee beans to a medium-coarse consistency. This will help to extract the rich flavors during brewing.

  2. 2

    Boil the Water

    In a kettle, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Ensure the water reaches a rolling boil for the best extraction.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Coffee Maker

    If using a drip coffee maker, place a coffee filter in the basket. If using a French press, make sure it is clean and ready.

  4. 4

    Add Coffee Grounds

    Add the ground coffee to the coffee maker basket or French press. Use 2 cups of ground coffee for the 4 cups of boiling water.

  5. 5

    Brew the Coffee

    Pour the boiling water over the coffee grounds in the coffee maker or French press. Allow it to brew for about 4-5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Add Sugar

    After brewing, stir in 1 tablespoon of sugar while the coffee is still hot until fully dissolved.

  7. 7

    Serve with Milk and Cinnamon (Optional)

    Pour the brewed coffee into mugs. If desired, add 1 cup of milk and a dash of cinnamon to each mug for extra flavor. Stir well.
