How to Double Brew Coffee
Double-brewed coffee simply refers to coffee that is double strength. Double-brewed coffee is nothing more than coffee with twice the concentration and a stronger flavor. There are two ways to make double-brewed coffee. First, you can brew coffee twice through the coffee pot by running a pot of already brewed coffee over fresh coffee beans. Second, you can brew coffee with twice as many coffee beans. The latter method is the most preferred because coffee that is simply run through the coffee pot more than once often acquires a strange, stale taste and can ruin your coffee machine.
