What each ingredient does
- Finely ground coffee
- Provides the dissolved flavor compounds that make up the brew's body and taste.
- Boiling water
- Extracts flavor from the grounds and carries it through the filter into the pot.
The step that matters
Keep the coffee pot hot while brewing. Holding the pot at a steady temperature keeps the brew from cooling during extraction, which helps maintain consistent flavor and a warm cup.
