Which grind should I use:- In general, the longer that coffee and water spend in contact during the brewing process, the coarser the grind you should use. Fine for espresso, coarse for drip.
Water:- Always start with fresh, cold water.
Use Freshly Ground Coffee:- Grind coffee right before brewing. Whole beans stay fresh longer.
