2. Prepare the Water:

  • Use fresh, filtered water for the best flavor.

B. French Press:

  1. Add the ground coffee to the French press.

  2. Pour hot water over the grounds, ensuring all the coffee is saturated.

  3. Stir gently and place the lid on the press with the plunger up.

  4. Let it steep for 4 minutes.

  5. Slowly press the plunger down to separate the grounds from the liquid.

  6. Pour the coffee into your mug and enjoy.

C. Pour-Over:

  1. Place a filter in the pour-over cone and rinse it with hot water to remove any paper taste.

  2. Add the ground coffee to the filter.

  3. Slowly pour hot water over the grounds in a circular motion, starting from the center and moving outward.

  4. Allow the coffee to drip through into your mug.

  5. Once finished, remove the filter and enjoy your coffee.

4. Customize Your Coffee:
