Ingredients
- Coffee grounds
- 2 tablespoons, coarsely ground
- Water
- 1 cup (240 ml), freshly boiled
Instructions
- Begin by boiling fresh water in a kettle or saucepan until it reaches a rolling boil.
- In a coffee filter or French press, place the coarsely ground coffee. For a stronger brew, consider increasing the amount of coffee grounds to taste.
- Once the water is boiling, carefully pour it over the coffee grounds, ensuring all grounds are saturated.
- Allow the coffee to steep for 4-5 minutes, letting the flavors fully develop. Adjust the steeping time for a stronger or milder taste.
- If using a French press, gently press the plunger down to separate the grounds from the brewed coffee. If using a filter, simply remove it carefully.
- Pour the freshly brewed black coffee into your favorite cup and enjoy it hot, savoring the deep, rich flavors.
Tips
- For variations, try using different coffee beans to explore unique flavor profiles, such as dark roast for a bolder taste or light roast for a more nuanced flavor.
- Experiment with steeping times to discover your preferred strength and taste.
- If you enjoy a bit of sweetness, consider adding a spoonful of sugar or a dash of cinnamon before brewing.
