The first step in making a great cup of coffee is to grind the beans just before brewing. Grinding the beans releases the flavor and oils, which can be lost if you brew with pre-ground coffee. You should also use freshly boiled water for your coffee; cold or room temperature water will not extract all the flavors from the beans. Lastly, it's important to use the right amount of grounds for your coffee maker. Generally speaking, two tablespoons of ground coffee per six ounces of water is recommended.
