| − | *Experiment until you are satisfied. Do not use too little coffee as overextraction of the grounds can lead to bitter coffee.
| |
| − | *Use hot water. Best results occur when the water is around 190 to 200 degrees Farenheit when they hit the grinds, and most coffee makers cannot heat cold water sufficiently to achieve this.
| |
| − | *Try to delay grinding raw coffee beans as long as possible. The longer grinds stay out, the more they lose their flavor.
