Dortmund Dark Roast

Ingredients

Dark roast coffee beans

1/2 cup, coarsely ground

Water

4 cups, filtered

Instructions

1. Start by measuring 1/2 cup of dark roast coffee beans and grind them to a medium-coarse consistency, ensuring that the grounds are uniform for optimal extraction.
2. In a kettle or saucepan, bring 4 cups of filtered water to a boil. For the best flavor, use water that is just off the boil, around 200°F (93°C).
3. Place the ground coffee into a French press or your preferred coffee maker.
4. Pour the hot water over the coffee grounds, ensuring all the grounds are saturated. This will help release their rich flavors.
5. Allow the coffee to steep for 4 minutes. Use this time to prepare your favorite mug and perhaps gather some delightful accompaniments, like pastries or a piece of dark chocolate.
6. If using a French press, slowly press down the plunger to separate the grounds from the brewed coffee. If using a coffee maker, just let it complete its brewing cycle.
7. Pour the Dortmund Dark Roast into your favorite mug and savor the rich aroma before taking that first sip. Enjoy it black for the purest experience, or add a splash of cream or milk for a creamy delight.
