COFFEE BREWING GUIDE
Choose your beans wisely. It is best to use premium whole beans from a trusted brand
or roaster.
Arabica beans provide the best flavors and have less caffeine and while Robusta
beans are easier to grow and less expensive, they have less flavor and higher caffeine
content. Robusta beans are sometimes used in blends to add a particular bitterness to
the brew.
Beans can be roasted very lightly to provide a smooth aromatic taste or roasted dark to
provide stronger flavors, and anywhere in between.
A good roaster will be able to describe the flavors that the beans will impart to your
brewed coffee.
Note: Experiment with different beans and different roasts to identify one or several
that suit your tastes.
• Air, light, and moisture are damaging to the delicate oils that give the coffee beans
their great flavor
• Buy your beans in small batches to always have the freshest possible beans
available.
• Store the coffee in an opaque, airtight container and keep in a cool dry place.
The amount of ground coffee must be carefully measured against the volume of water
for each brew cycle. It is important to use enough coffee to avoid over extraction. A
small amount of coffee would be overwhelmed by a large volume of hot water.
Krups recommends using 7 grams of ground coffee per 5 oz cup of water. 7 grams can
be measured in one rounded tablespoon. If the resulting brew seems too strong you
can adjust by using slightly less ground coffee.
