Filtered Coffee

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place a fine strainer in the upper cylindrical vessel of a French coffee biggin.

  2. Add the finely ground coffee to the strainer.

  3. Set a coarser strainer on top of the coffee, with a rod running from the center.

  4. Pour boiling water over the coffee, ensuring it falls evenly like rain.

  5. Set the pot in a warm place, allowing the water to filter through without boiling.
