Tips to Brew Good Coffee
Quality coffee comes from quality ingredients. For the best coffee, you should start with freshly ground coffee from freshly roasted beans. The beans can be purchased and stored in an airtight container. Just prior to brewing,
remove the amount needed and grind the beans. Once the bean is broken, the intense, rich flavor begins to deteriorate.
The amount of coffee to water depends upon personal preference. One tablespoon of ground coffee per cup is recommended.
