Making Tips

Crafting the perfect cup of coffee is both an art and a science. Start with fresh, high-quality beans and grind them just before brewing to preserve their full flavor. Use filtered water at the ideal temperature—around 90–96°C (195–205°F)—to avoid bitterness or flat taste. Measure your coffee-to-water ratio precisely; a common guideline is 1 to 2 tablespoons of coffee per 180 ml (6 oz) of water. Choose the brewing method that suits your taste—be it pour-over, French press, espresso, or cold brew—and clean your equipment regularly to ensure purity of flavor. Most importantly, experiment and enjoy the process—it’s your ritual.
