Hints, tips & links for making the best coffee

Good coffee is not rocket science; you just need three things:

1. Fresh roasted coffee (usually coffea arabica) - no older than 10 days from its roasting date, NOT stored in the fridge;
2. A good quality burr grinder (the most important piece of equipment)
3. Clean plunger, moka pot or espresso machine; old oils & debris will spoil your brew!

Once you have these, grind what you need for the appropriate method (& only ever just before use), warm your equipment, make & enjoy!
