THE QUEST FOR THE
PERFECT CUP
OF COFFEE
ELEMENT 1: WATER
Coffee is 98% water. The quality of that
water is as important as the quality of your
coffee. If water doesn't taste good from
the tap, it won't taste good in your coffee.
Cuisinart includes a charcoal water filter to
remove chlorine, bad tastes and odours
for the purest coffee flavour, every time
you brew.
ELEMENT 2: COFFEE
While coffee is 98% water, all of the
flavour comes from the beans. To achieve
the same great taste you enjoy at a coffee
bar, you need to use the same quality of
coffee. If you choose to grind your own
beans, buy them fresh and whole. Buy
only about a two-week supply at a time,
because once the bean is broken, its
flavor degrades quickly.
ELEMENT 3: GRIND
The grind is critical for proper flavour
extraction. If the grind is too fine,
over-extraction and bitterness will result.
Too fine a grind may also clog the filter.
If grind is too coarse, the water will pass
through too quickly and the maximum
flavour will not be extracted. When
grinding your own beans, we
recommend a medium-fine grind.
ELEMENT 4: PROPORTION
Coffee that is too strong or too weak is
always a disappointment. Follow the
recommended portions of ground coffee
in the instructions under MAKING
COFFEE, and later adjust the amount to
suit your taste.
