How do you prepare a cup of coffee?

Answer 1

There are a great many ways to brew a great cup of coffee.

The basics, however, are universal.

You've heard it before... maybe you've even said it. " I make terrible coffee!" Don't panic. Brewing delicious coffee isn't difficult, you simply need to mind a few details. The following tips cover most every thing you need to know.

Buy whole bean coffee. Buying and storing our coffee in whole bean form keeps delicate oils and aromas where they belong - in the bean - safely locked away from their primary enemy, oxygen.

Store unopened bags of coffee in a cool, dry place. After you open the bag, store unused beans in an air-tight canister.

Don't buy more coffee than you'll use in a matter of weeks.

Always grind your beans just before brewing... and be sure to choose a grind appropriate for your brewing method. Grind coarsely for use in a coffee press, less so for a vacuum pot. Grind the beans fairly fine for auto drip.

Always use fresh, good-tasting, cold water. Brewed coffee is about 98% water, after all. Measure your coffee. Tastes vary widely, but a good place to start is between 1 and 2 tablespoons for each 6 ounces of water. Too little coffee won't make a weaker brew... it'll make a bitter brew. If your coffee is stronger than you like, you can always dilute it with additional hot water. Brew your coffee using clean equipment. Whatever your method of brewing, start with sparkling clean gear. Enjoy your coffee immediately... or store it for an hour or two in a thermal carafe. Don't let your coffee sit on a warming plate.

Answer 2

WELL,

first you have to buy some coffee. If you get it in 'chunks,' have a grinder.

But if you get the powder, you're good to go.

May I recommend Starbucks?

Anyway, take the tank thing and fill it with water.

Then take one of the white things and put it in the top. Then put some ground coffee in.

Make sure you measure the water and coffee to however many cups you want!

After that, close the top of the coffee maker and press the start button.

And a few minutes later, you should have coffee.

I apologize for not knowing the names of the items.

The companies make a large brew of coffee and then dehydrate it, package it, and when you add water it goes back to the same hydrated state.
