Tips for Best-Tasting Coffee
• All coffees are made from either arabica beans or robusta beans, or
some combination of both. Arabica beans are slightly more expensive,
but tend to produce better-tasting coffee.
• Ground coffee will become stale much faster than whole beans.
If buying preground coffee, choose a package with the latest
expiration date or a smaller quantity.
• If grinding whole beans, set your coffee grinder on a fine/medium
grind. This will yield the best-tasting grounds. Try to use freshly
ground coffee within about a week of grinding.
• Using a water filter, filtered water, or bottled water will yield
better-tasting coffee than tap water.
• Use approximately 1 tablespoon of grounds for each cup of coffee
being made. To avoid overflow, use slightly less grounds (3/4 tablespoon
[11 ml]) when brewing decaf or flavored coffees. Also, be aware that
using coffee that is ground too finely may also cause the filter basket
to overflow.
• Make sure your coffeemaker is clean. See “Care and Cleaning”
sections.
