Hints & Tips to ensure the perfect cup of coffee
Always make sure your coffee maker is clean.
Choose the right grind of coffee for your coffee maker. Ideally medium ground coffees should be used in cafetieres and finely groundin filters and espresso machines.
Use fresh water to brew the coffee. Water makes up to 98% of a cup of coffee and its quality will affect the flavour.
Allow one rounded dessertspoon per cup. You may wish to adjust according to your taste.
Use off the boil water. Boiling water will scald your coffee and impair its flavour.
To ensure the full flavour and aroma of your coffee always use within 3 weeks of opening.
After opening make sure you reseal the pack and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Serve coffee immediately to enjoy its full rich flavour and aroma.
To keep coffee warm, transfer to a thermos flask. Never reheat coffee as this will affect its flavour.
