Your basic guide to prepare coffee at home

Choose your coffee

Select high-quality beans. If you can see the beans, look for uniform size and color, a non-oily surface, and a fresh, pleasant aroma. Grind the coffee just before brewing for the best flavour.

Measure your coffee

Measuring is an important step. Use a scale if possible. If you don’t have a scale, a spoon can help, one spoonful of ground coffee is approximately 6 grams.

Grind your coffee

Grind the coffee according to your brewing method. For a French press, use a coarse grind. For a Chemex, use a medium-coarse grind. For a V60, use a medium grind. For a brewing machine, a medium-fine grind works well.

Brew and enjoy!

You can always adjust the taste of your coffee. If it’s too strong, add a little hot water. If it’s too weak, try using more coffee next time. Always experiment with new methods and, most importantly, have fun!
