COFFEE BREWING TIPS

• Coffee gets stronger as it brews; stir coffee before serving to have each cup taste the

same.

• Not sure how much coffee to use? Try 1 heaping scoop of medium grind coffee for each

cup.

• Never reuse paper coffee filters! They will make the coffee taste stale; they may also tear

and spill grinds into the brewed coffee.

• Store coffee grounds in a tightly sealed container in a dark place. It is best to grind coffee

just before it is brewed.

• For added flavor: whip some heavy cream with 1 or 2 tablespoons of hazel nut, chocolate

or almond liqueur. Use to top off each cup of coffee.

• Rinse both the carafe and the filter basket with warm water immediately after each use to

maintain good coffee flavor.

• For iced make coffee ice cubes from left over coffee and use to chill the coffee.
