Brewing Instructions

1

Grind the Coffee Beans

Using a coffee grinder, grind 2 cups of coffee beans to a medium-coarse consistency. This will help in extracting the optimal flavor during brewing.

2

Boil the Water

In a kettle, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. This temperature is ideal for brewing coffee as it helps in extracting the flavors from the coffee grounds.

3

Combine Coffee and Water

Once the water has boiled, remove it from heat and let it cool for about 30 seconds to reach the optimal brewing temperature of about 200°F. Combine the ground coffee with the hot water in a coffee maker or French press.

4

Brew the Coffee

Allow the coffee to brew for 4-5 minutes. If using a French press, press down the plunger gently after 4 minutes.

5

Serve the Coffee

Pour the freshly brewed coffee into cups. Add sugar and milk or cream to taste, stirring well to combine.
