Making coffee is so easy, that absolutely anyone can make coffee, in just a few minutes.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • One coffee pot
  • Water
  • Coffee filters
  • Coffee, your choice
  • Sugar, if desired
  • Cream, if desired
  1. Step 1

    Assuming that you have alredy taken your coffee pot out of the package. Be sure to read the directions. Set it in a convenient location, being sure to plug in the coffee pot. Do not put it right beside the sink, since you run the risk of electrocution if the cord or burner gets wet.

  2. Step 2

    Fill the canister to the level desired. I normally make 12 cups at a time, so i fill mine to the twelve cup marking that is on the canister.

  3. Step 3

    Insert the coffee filter, into the slot that it goes in. Add approximately three heaping tablespoons of coffee, for a good mild coffee, that will not be too strong. If you like yours a little weaker, then just add two tablespoons of ground coffee. Turn the coffee pot on. Let it brew, and enjoy. If you have donuts or pound cake to go along with your coffee, it makes a delicious afternoon or morning snack.

on 8/13/2009 Good sensible article on how to make coffee. As one who never developed a taste for it, I found myself years later feeling like I was the only one in the world who didn't know how to make coffee when company came. Now I have the instructions.
