Alton Brown, one of my favorite hosts from the Food Network shares with us his secret for making the perfect cup of coffee with a standard drip coffee maker. He has eight tips that will take your lack luster coffee and make it spectacular.
Easy to do too!
- Buy whole coffee beans, not ground. Store them in an air tight container.
- Use a Burr Grinder
- Use filtered water
- Ditch the coffee filter that comes with your pot and use unbleached coffee filters
- Measure 2 tablespoons per cup of coffee being made & 6 ounces of water per cup
- Add 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt - this will take the bitterness away
- Wait until the whole pot is brewed before enjoying your first cup
