Brewing Instructions

  1. 1

    Measure the Coffee Grounds

    Using a coffee scoop or a measuring cup, measure out 1 cup of coffee grounds. Choose a medium grind for optimal extraction.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Water

    Boil 4 cups of fresh, filtered water in a kettle. Allow it to reach a temperature of approximately 200°F (93°C) for optimal brewing.

  3. 3

    Set Up the Drip Coffee Maker

    Place a coffee filter in the basket of your drip coffee maker. Ensure it is secured properly to avoid any grounds escaping during brewing.

  4. 4

    Add Coffee Grounds

    Pour the measured coffee grounds into the filter-lined basket of the coffee maker.

  5. 5

    Pour in the Water

    Once the water has boiled, carefully pour it into the water reservoir of the coffee maker.

  6. 6

    Brew the Coffee

    Turn on the coffee maker and allow it to brew. This process will take about 5-10 minutes.

  7. 7

    Serve the Coffee

    Once brewing is complete, pour the freshly brewed coffee into a mug. Enjoy it black or add cream and sugar as desired.

  8. 8

    Clean Up

    Dispose of the used coffee grounds and filter. Rinse the coffee pot and basket to keep your machine clean for the next use.
