Pour-Over

1. Heat 16 oz. of water in kettle to boiling. Once boiling, let it sit
2. Measure 0.80 oz. coffee beans (approx. 1 rounded Tbsp. per 4 oz). Adjust the amount of coffee to your taste as you experiment with a pour-over
3. Grind into a pour-over filter (a slightly finer grind is better)

How to Make Coffee:

1. Begin with freshly roasted coffee beans.
2. Grind the beans right before brewing.
3. Use filtered water.
4. Ideally use a French press, although you’ll get a good cup of coffee from a drip maker too.
5. Use approximately 1 rounded tablespoon of coffee per 8 oz. of water, to your taste.
