Drip Brewer Tutorial
Ingredients:
- Drip Brewer
- Regular Coffee Filters
- Coffee: Preferably Utica Coffee
- Water (Preferably filtered)
* This will be based on brewing 12 cups.
(For an 8 cup (64oz) brew, use 3.25oz of ground coffee)
Directions:
- Prep Your Brewer
- Fill your coffee pot to the 12 cup mark with water and set aside.
- Make sure everything is on and if the water needs to heat, be sure to do that.
2. Grind Your Coffee
- Measure out 2.5 Tbsp grounds per cup of coffee (or about 1 3/4 cup for 12 cups)
- With whatever grinder you're using, you'll want to grind the coffee so that it resembles coarse kosher salt. If your coffee is pre-ground, it's likely that it's ground for drip already.
3. Prepare Ground Coffee
- Dump your coffee into the filter basket and shake slightly to even out the grounds.
- If your water is ready, place the filter basket in the brewer and get rolling!
4. Pour and Enjoy!
- Once your brew has finished, stand back and admire it for a second. you're about to have some great coffee and an even better day.
- Pour your coffee! Coffee is always best enjoyed from your favorite mug. It'd better be one of ours...
5. Adjust Accordingly
- After brewing, note whether your coffee is too weak or too strong for your personal taste and adjust accordingly. If it's too strong, try 2 Tbsp per cup and if it's too weak, add slightly more coffee. Either way, it's your personal wake up call and you should enjoy it to your taste!
