How To Make Your Own Cup of Coffee

Making coffee can be simple or as intricate as you want it to be! Here’s a basic method using a drip coffee maker:

Ingredients:

  • Fresh coffee beans (or pre-ground coffee)
  • Water

Equipment:

  • Coffee maker
  • Coffee grinder (if using whole beans)
  • Coffee filter
  • Mug

Steps:

  1. Measure Coffee: Use about 1 to 2 tablespoons of coffee per 6 ounces of water, depending on how strong you like it.
  2. Grind the Beans (if using whole beans): Aim for a medium grind for drip coffee makers.
  3. Add Water: Fill the coffee maker’s reservoir with fresh, cold water.
  4. Prepare the Filter: Place a coffee filter in the basket.
  5. Add Coffee: Scoop the ground coffee into the filter.
  6. Start Brewing: Turn on the coffee maker and let it brew.
  7. Serve: Once it’s done brewing, pour it into a mug. Add milk, sugar, or any other preferred flavorings.

Enjoy!

Experiment with different brewing methods (like French press or pour-over) or coffee types to find your favorite!
