How to Make

Use 15 grams of ground coffee per cup, maintaining a 1:15 coffee-to-water ratio. For a light roast ground coffee brew without an auto drip machine, steep the coffee grounds in hot water for 4 minutes, then filter using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth. Avoid using boiling water directly on the coffee, as it can lead to over-extraction and bitterness. Additionally, don’t leave the coffee grounds in contact with hot water for too long to prevent a harsh taste.
