Make a Great Pot of Coffee
(4 steps)
|
|
The no-voodoo brew-do
Often the simplest things are the most elusive. But the key to a great pot of coffee is no mystery; it merely depends on first-rate ingredients, good equipment and proper technique. Buy your coffee frequently from a quality source, store it in a dark, cool, dry place up to two weeks (freeze for longer storage) and follow the instructions below. You'll make a fine pot every time.
Before you begin
- Make sure your coffee maker is scrupulously clean; residual oils turn rancid over time.
- If you're using paper filters, rinse them in hot water to remove loose paper pulp and bleaching agents (if white). Also, flavor oils thus release into the brew, not the filter.
- If you must use tap water, run the faucet to clear the water sitting in the pipes. Colder and fresher makes a tastier, livelier brew.
- Warm the pot! Just a few swishes in hot water will help maintain the coffee's temperature and flavor.
