Coffee Ingredients

Method

Brewing Directions

  1. 1

    Measure Coffee

    Start by measuring 2 tablespoons of freshly ground coffee. Adjust the amount based on your strength preference.

  2. 2

    Boil Water

    In a kettle, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. If you prefer a stronger coffee, you can reduce the amount of water.

  3. 3

    Combine Coffee and Water

    Once the water is boiling, pour it over the ground coffee in a coffee maker or French press. Allow it to steep for about 4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Strain the Coffee

    If using a French press, press down the plunger to separate the grounds from the coffee. If using a coffee maker, simply let the machine finish brewing.

  5. 5

    Add Milk and Sugar (Optional)

    Pour the brewed coffee into a mug. If desired, add 0.5 cups of milk, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and/or 0.5 teaspoons of vanilla extract for flavor.

  6. 6

    Stir and Serve

    Stir your coffee well to combine all the ingredients. Enjoy your freshly brewed cup of coffee!
