BREWING TIPS
Here are a few of the ways that we prefer to brew our cup of small batch coffee. These are baseline recommendations and you can always adjust if you want a stronger or lighter coffee!
Water should be heated to 200-205° F for all brewing methods
Tip: To reach 200° F temperature without a thermometer, boil water, and let it sit for 30 seconds.
