6 Coffee Prep Tips To Brew the Best Cup of Coffee At Home!

A morning trip to your local Tend Coffee is a welcome event. However, there may be certain times when you want a fresh cup of coffee to enjoy as soon as you wake up in the morning. Thankfully, we offer bags of our fresh coffee beans to enjoy at home.

To brew the best cup of coffee possible, here are a few tips to keep in mind when prepping for the coffee making session:

• Buy your coffee in whole bean form and then grind it fresh

• When grinding coffee, make sure the size of the grounds are suitable for your specific coffee-making device

• Use a burr grinder for more consistently ground coffee

• Choose a quality water source when making coffee as this will determine whether your cup of coffee is robust and delicious or just satisfactory

• Use a coffee scale to ensure proper measurements

• Experiment with coffee-making techniques, ranging from pourover coffee methods to French press varieties

When you have high-quality coffee beans and the right coffee making equipment, your at-home cup of coffee will rival the one prepared by your favorite barista. The bottom line is to experiment with different grinding techniques and preparation options. You'll likely find that you like one method over another and will eagerly await your next freshly-prepared cup of coffee.
