How to Brew a Better Cup


The Auto Drip Coffee Machine is the most common type of coffee maker in the world and is made for home use. It usually use a coffee brewer to make a pot of coffee, and is very easy to use due to its automatic features. Load up a coffee filter with the coffee ground, put it in the allotted spot, add some water, and press the power button, then it begin to brew your coffee. But are you sure know how brew a good cup of coffee? Here factors that affect brewing a better cup we set out.

Factors

Brewing Time

Brewing time should be about 6 minutes for 8 cups of coffee. This will allow for proper water flow and saturation time. 

Brewing Temperature

The coffee industry’s standard for the temperature of the brewing water is 195°- 205°F (91°-96°C). This coffee brewer is engineered to heat the water to precisely this range.

Water

For ideal extraction levels, brew your coffee in 6-8 cup batches. Brew with fresh, filtered water whenever possible.

Coffee Bean

The quality of the coffee has a great impact on brewed coffee’s favor. Using freshly roasted coffee and grinding the beans just before brewing are important considerations. We recommend using coffee within a couple of weeks of its roast date. Air tight storage will help extend your coffee’s lifespan.

Grinding Coffee

Grinding coffee is another key point on the timeline of  avor and perishability. Once coffee is ground the air begins to attack essential oils and other volatile  avor components. It’s only a matter of hours before most of the ground coffee’s aroma has evaporated. Sometimes pre-grinding can’t be avoided, but if it can, put it off until shortly before brewing.

Ratio

If you always use the same ratio of water to coffee grounds, the favor of your coffee will be more consistent. We recommend 2 tbsp of drip-ground coffee per 5 oz cup. If you wanted to brew 6 cups (30oz) try adding 12 tbsp (60g) of coffee. If weight is more your thing using a ratio of 1 oz. of coffee to 15  . oz. of water as a good starting point. Feel free to use more or less coffee to suit your taste.

Clean

Keep the filter basket, water tank, and carafe clean.

Expect you to brew the best coffee!
