Brew Coffee Like A Master

Follow these simple tips and you will savor the results!

• You’ve already completed step 1: selecting the freshest, best quality coffee – Emerson House.
• Step 2: Take steps to keep your coffee fresh. Keep Emerson House Coffee in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Do not freeze or refrigerate.
• Step 3: Know your coffee maker: it may seem simple, but take the time to read the directions – it will pay off! Pay attention to manufacturer cleaning recommendations to eliminate coffee residue. A clean coffee maker and filter are keys to a great cup of coffee. Also make sure your coffee maker heats the water enough for the most flavorful cup (195° to 205° F).
• Step 4: If you are using Emerson House Premium Whole Beans, pay attention to how you grind them. As a general rule, the shorter the brewing process, the finer you should grind the beans.
• Step 5: Always use fresh, cold water. If you have hard water, use bottled water if possible.
• Step 6: Don’t guess – measure your coffee and your water – a good rule of thumb is two tablespoons of ground Emerson House per 6 fluid ounces of water – but you may come up with your own personalized “formula” depending on how strong you like your coffee.
• Step 7: Stir the coffee in the pot before pouring for uniform flavor.
• Step 8: Serve Emerson House coffee as soon as possible for the best aroma and taste. If you need to keep it for longer than 20 minutes, make sure to keep it hot – do not reheat. A good idea is to pour the coffee into a preheated vacuum carafe or flask.
• Step 9: Relax, enjoy and share with friends!
