How do you make the perfect cup of black coffee?
Question by Be healthy, be happy: How do you make the perfect cup of black coffee?
I like my coffee black, without sugar, creamer or anything else. But how can I make good black coffee using instant coffee. I don’t have a coffee machine or anything, not even a coffee pot. Can you give me step by step instructions?
Thanks
I do have arabic ground coffee, but that’s a different thing! It’s done in a different way and has a different taste. I’m talking about a normal coffee here that we drink in the morning, not a cup of Turkish coffee.

“Perfect” and “instant” to me are pretty much a contradiction in terms. Get a little french press pot and real ground arabica coffee. You won’t regret it.

You should try a french press. That’s what we use and needs no electricity.
from Wikpedia: Coffee may also be brewed by steeping in a device such as a French press (also known as a cafetière or coffee press). Ground coffee and hot water are combined in a coffee press and left to brew for a few minutes. A plunger is then depressed to separate the coffee grounds, which remain at the bottom of the container. Because the coffee grounds are in direct contact with the water, all the coffee oils remain in the beverage, making it stronger.”
They sell them at ikea for about 12 bucks. All you do is heat your water and pour it into the pot. The grounds are already in there. You let it sit for a few minutes and then plunge it which leaves all the grounds on the bottom. YUMMY!!

Here are 3 simple tips that will make a difference in every single cup you drink.
Tip #1
Clean Coffee Pot
A clean pot is essential and can make a world of difference in the taste of your coffee. Old oils from previous batches of coffee and soap residue left on the pot makes coffee taste bad.
Baking soda and water work well for cleaning coffee mugs and pots. Be sure to rinse extra good so no residue is left behind.
Tip #2
Clean Filtered Water
The water you use for your coffee will affect the taste more than anything. Coffee is 99% water so use clean filtered or bottled water free from chlorine and other minerals that will affect the taste of your coffee.
Using stainless steel or gold mesh filters instead of paper filters will also make your coffee taste better. Paper filters release dyes, chlorine and bleach that affect taste. If you insist on using paper filters buy the unbleached, brown paper filters.
Tip #3
Use Fresh Quality Coffee
Quality coffee costs more but will consistently produce better tasting coffee.
For the best results use quality, whole bean coffee and grind the coffee beans just prior to use. You might think it’s an inconvenience compared to ground coffee, but once you taste the difference you’ll never go back.
If you still want to use ground coffee, make sure you use a good, drip grind coffee.
Use 2 level tablespoons of coffee per 6 ounces of water. This can be adjusted for individual taste preference. Make sure to spread the grounds evenly in the coffee filter so full brewing is achieved.
Drink your fresh coffee right away for the best flavor. Coffee will break down quickly if left on a heat source. Coffee should never be reheated or microwaved.
A clean, preheated air pot or stainless steel Thermos will keep coffee hot for about an hour without hurting the flavor.
If you follow these 3 simple tips, every cup you brew will be perfect coffee.

Q&A: How to make a perfect cup of coffee at home?
Question by murkle: How to make a perfect cup of coffee at home?
I love drinking gourmet coffee especially when it has cinnamon in it. I was wondering how to do it myself at home though?

Answer by raven
If you are making coffee in a press, then the secret is to make sure the water is not boiling hot. If the water is too hot then it turns the coffee bitter. Put a dash of cinnamon into the coffee grinds and mix. Always use whole beans (stored in an airtight container and well sealed for freshness) and grind as required.
You can do the same with a coffee machine but if you find the coffee is always slightly bitter then add a small dash of salt to the grinds instead of cinnamon(in the filter with your grinds) and sprinkle cinnamon on top of your coffee after you pour it. Also, put the cream into your coffee cup before you pour the coffee not after.
Hope this helps:)
