Improving your coffee game
Pre-warm your mug. Before adding water to your ground beans and filter, pour some hot water into your mug. Your coffee will stay hot and keep flavour longer.
Not-quite-boiling. The water temperature for pouring directly over the grounds should be 200 degrees F.
Don't save your beans for special occasions. The further you get for the roast date, the weaker the flavour.
The golden ratio of coffee to water is 1:16 for above-average beans (about 22 grams of coffee to 253 grams of water).
