Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons (10g) freshly ground coffee beans (medium-fine grind)
- 1 cup (240ml) filtered water, just off the boil (195-205°F / 90-96°C)
Instructions
- Place the coffee grounds in a mug or a French press.
- Pour the hot water over the grounds, ensuring all grounds are saturated.
- Stir gently and let steep for 4 minutes.
- If using a French press, press the plunger down slowly. If using a mug, let the grounds settle or strain through a fine-mesh sieve.
- Serve immediately.
Tips
- Use freshly roasted beans for best flavor.
- Adjust coffee-to-water ratio to taste: use 1-2 tablespoons per 6 oz water.
- For a cleaner cup, use a paper filter (pour-over method).
