How to Make Regular Coffee

:Materials Needed:

- Coffee beans or ground coffee

- Coffee maker (drip or French press)

- Coffee grinder (if using whole beans)

- Coffee mug or cup

- Water

- Filters (for drip coffee makers)

Instructions:

1. Prepare Your Coffee:

- If you're using whole beans, grind them to a medium-coarse consistency.

- If using pre-ground coffee, ensure it's fresh.

2. Measure Coffee and Water:

- Measure the desired amount of coffee. A good rule of thumb is 1-2 tablespoons of ground coffee per 6 ounces of water. Adjust the proportions according to your preferences.

- Measure the corresponding amount of cold, filtered water.

3. Set Up the Coffee Maker:

- If you're using a drip coffee maker, place a paper filter in the filter basket and add the ground coffee.

- For a French press, add the ground coffee directly into the press.

4. Add Water:

- Pour the measured water into the water reservoir of the coffee maker.

5. Turn On the Coffee Maker:

- Switch on your drip coffee maker and let it brew. For a French press, wait 4 minutes before plunging.

6. Plunge (for French Press):

- After 4 minutes, gently press the plunger down to separate the coffee grounds from the brewed coffee.

7. Pour and Enjoy:

- Once brewing is complete, pour your fresh, hot coffee into a mug or cup.

- Add any desired extras, such as milk, sugar, or flavorings, and enjoy your freshly brewed coffee!
