COFFEE
BREWING COFFEE
Brewing coffee may be done by the drip, steep, or percolator method.
General pointers to keep in mind:
1. Be sure the coffee container has no sediments of old brewed coffee.
2. Start with fresh, cold water to make coffee. It is preferrable to use purified water.
3. If using the manual drip method, let the water come to a full boil; then take
the kettle off the heat and pause for a moment before pouring the water into the
coffee. The flavor compounds in coffee that taste best are released by water
at less-than-boiling temperatures; 91 to 96 °C is optimal.
COFFEE
BREWING COFFEE
4. If using an automatic drip coffeemaker, do not leave coffee on the warming
plate-it will develop a bitter, burnt taste. Transfer the coffee to an airtight
thermal carafe to keep it warm.
5. Regarding filters, for sediment-free coffee, paper filters are best, but some
people prefer using fine-mesh gold-plated filters. These last a long time and,
also allow some sediment and flavorful oils to seep into the coffee, adding a
character that some people enjoy.

variety and added taste.
