Making coffee at home for the first time? Here’s how to nail it:
Prep Your Beans
First things first: Start with freshly roasted beans. Coffee that’s been sitting on the shelf too long loses its aroma and flavor. If your beans come in a sealed bag, make sure to store them in an airtight container to keep them fresh. Once you’ve got your beans ready, it’s time to grind them. For the best results, use a burr grinder to ensure a consistent grind size, which is key for a balanced extraction.
For pour-over or drip coffee, aim for a medium grind, while espresso requires a fine grind. If you’re using a French press, go for a coarser grind to avoid over-extraction. No matter the method, freshly ground beans are always the way to go.
