Coffee Tips

1. Use GOOD coffee! (E-Java is a great choice for quality!)
2. Analyze your water- bad water makes bad coffee
3. put in the right coffee quantity
4. Adjust your coffee grind to your liking.
5. Store coffee in a cool, dark, dry place.
6. If you grind, grind one batch at a time.
7. Never freeze your coffee-freezer burn!
8. Don't reheat or microwave coffee - EVER!
9. For best brewing results, spread the coffee grounds evenly in the filter basket.
10. Keep your coffee in airtight glass containers away from the sunlight.
11. After making your coffee put it in a thermos. It will stay fresher much longer.
12. Make coffee ice-cubes for when your coffee is too hot. (won't dilute your coffee this way!)
13. Try bottled water instead of tap. Coffee is 98% water so good water is very important!
14. Buy whole bean coffee - it's the freshest way to buy.
15. The faster the brewing method, the finer you should grind your coffee beans.
16. Warm up your coffee mug first by pouring in hot water. Pour it out & pour in your coffee. A warm mug keeps your coffee warmer longer!
17. The finer the coffee is ground, the stronger the coffee will be.
18. Non-dairy creamer should be in the cup before the coffee, so coffee will not cool below 170 degrees, where the creamer will not dissolve properly.
