Recipe

  1. To begin, you'll need to preheat the coffee maker and the cups you'll be using with hot water to prepare the coffee container and ensure the coffee temperature is optimal. Once the coffee maker and cups are hot, discard the water.
  2. Next, add the desired amount of coffee to the coffee maker. Make sure you measure the amount carefully to achieve the desired flavor.
  3. Next, you should pour the water at a temperature of about 92 degrees Celsius continuously and start the time on your stopwatch. It's important to pour the water at this temperature to ensure optimal coffee extraction. You should also pour water halfway into the carafe to leave room for the remaining water and prevent the coffee maker from overflowing.
  4. After the coffee has steeped for a minute, stir it with a spoon to ensure a uniform extraction and to break up the layer that formed when you poured the water. This step is important to prevent lumps from forming in the coffee and to ensure better distribution of the flavor.
  5. Next, pour in the remaining water you want, or until the coffee maker is full, leaving room for the lid. This is necessary to prevent the coffee from over-extracting and becoming bitter.
  6. You should let the coffee steep for another 3 minutes, and after 4 minutes, you can slowly and carefully lower the filter to the base of the coffee maker. It's important to be careful when lowering the filter to prevent coffee from spilling or leaking through the edges.
  7. Your coffee is ready to drink. Pour the coffee immediately and leave nothing in the coffee maker to avoid over-extraction. It's important to pour the coffee immediately to enjoy it while it's hot and at its best. It's also important to avoid leaving the coffee in the coffee maker after extraction to prevent over-extraction and bitterness. Enjoy your delicious, freshly brewed homemade coffee.
