Method
Brewing Process
Measure Coffee
Using a measuring cup, measure out 0.5 cups of coarsely ground coffee beans. Make sure the coffee is freshly ground for the best flavor.
Prepare Water
Measure 4 cups of filtered water using a separate measuring cup. Ensure the water is fresh and clean for optimal brewing.
Heat the Water
In a kettle or on the stovetop, bring the filtered water to a boil. Once it reaches a rolling boil, remove it from the heat and let it cool for about 30 seconds to reach the ideal brewing temperature (around 200°F or 93°C).
Combine Coffee and Water
In a coffee maker or French press, add the measured coffee grounds. Slowly pour the hot water over the coffee grounds, ensuring all the grounds are saturated.
Brew the Coffee
If using a French press, let the coffee steep for about 4 minutes. If using a coffee maker, follow the manufacturer's instructions and allow the coffee to brew fully.
