1
Prepare the Coffee Beans
Grind the coffee beans using a coffee grinder until you achieve a fine to medium grind, depending on your preference.
2
Boil the Water
In a kettle or pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, remove from heat.
3
Steep the Coffee
Place the ground coffee in a coffee filter or French press. Pour the hot water over the coffee grounds, ensuring they are fully saturated. Allow to steep for 4-5 minutes.
4
Strain the Coffee
If using a French press, slowly press down the plunger to separate the grounds from the brewed coffee. If using a coffee filter, carefully remove the filter.
5
Add Sugar and Milk/Cream
Pour the brewed coffee into a mug. Add sugar to taste and stir well. If desired, add milk or cream to achieve your preferred creaminess.
6
Serve
Serve the freshly brewed coffee hot and enjoy!
