THE QUEST
FOR THE PERFECT
CUP OF COFFEE
Element 1: Water
Coffee is 98% water. The quality of that
water is as important as the quality of
your coffee. If water doesn’t taste good
from the tap, it won’t taste good in your
coffee. Cuisinart includes a charcoal
water filter to remove chlorine, bad
tastes and odors for the purest coffee
flavor, every time you brew.
Element 2: Coffee
While coffee is 98% water, all of the
flavor comes from the beans. To achieve
the same great taste you enjoy at a
coffee bar, you need to use the same
quality of coffee. If you choose to grind
your own beans, buy them fresh and
whole. Buy only about a two-week
supply at a time, because once the bean
is broken, its flavor degrades quickly.
Element 3: Grind
The grind is critical for proper flavor
extraction. If the grind is too fine, over-
extraction and bitterness will result. Too
fine a grind may also clog the filter. If
grind is too coarse, the water will pass
through too quickly and the maximum
flavor will not be extracted. When
grinding your own beans, we
recommend a medium-fine grind.
Element 4: Proportion
Coffee that is too strong or too weak is
always a disappointment. Follow the
recommended portions of ground coffee
in the instructions under MAKING
COFFEE, and later adjust the amount to
suit your taste.
