HOW TO BREW YOUR OWN COFFEE – Ladies Who Online

We already know that plenty of coffee shops have emerged in the market today. It won’t be such an expense to treat yourself to some high-end coffee from time to time, but it wouldn’t hurt to brew your own and affordable cup either. So, if you’ve got some time to spare during the morning (before you go rushing to work or school), try making a fresh cup at home.

For the budget-conscious, brewing your delicious cup of coffee can be made easy; and you won’t have to be a trained barista to concoct your mix. There are a few tricks to make your brewing easier to do. You can read the steps below to know how to go about this simple task.

1) Coffee Maker – It all starts with the Coffee Maker. You can decide to invest in a drip coffee pot or just the brewer. 

2) Clean Pot – Always keep your coffee pot dirt free (clean it once a week). Leaving the residue from a previous blend will affect the taste the next time you decide to brew your coffee.

3) Get fresh and whole coffee beans – The ones from the coffee shops are (more than likely) roasted already. The newer the coffee beans are, the more quality and flavor there’ll be. You can also get yourself a coffee grinder to help you with the crushing of the beans. 

4) Extra flavors – Add some extra zest to your coffee by getting some creamers, sweeteners (like sugar or honey), a few bottles of your preferred flavors, and a selection of spices (like cinnamon and nutmeg). Take vanilla, for example. You can try mixing this with your coffee. 

How do you proceed to the brewing itself? Well, you’ll need your coffee pot (you can use an Electric Drip Coffee Pot for this), clean (preferably distilled) water, and your fresh coffee beans. You’ll have to use filtered water for this, so you don’t ruin the flavors with the contaminants from the tap water. 

Now, start your brew by putting some cold water into the coffeemaker’s carafe, and then insert a filter by its basket. After that, add your preferred amount of ground coffee beans (for every 6 ounces of water, this should be equivalent to 1 to 2 tablespoons of coffee beans). As soon as you’re done with this, put water inside the basin of the coffeemaker, and then insert the carafe under it. The final step is to plug-in the coffeemaker. You may be able to drink your homemade coffee after a few minutes. It’s that easy!
