Helpful Hints for Brewing

•Always use fresh, cold water for
brewing. In areas with hard
water or where water contains a
high mineral content, use cold
filtered water for optimal
coffee taste.
•For best results, use a premium,
fine grind, roast coffee.
• Use a #4 paper cone filter or a
permanent gold filter.
