Practical Tips

Always use pure chlorine-free water for brewing coffee.
Do not store coffee with other products with strong aromas.
Coffee that is not drunk, use it to make cold drinks during non-traditional coffee hours.
If you don’t have vanilla ice cream to make cold coffees, you can substitute 2 tablespoons of powdered milk or vice-versa.
If you don’t have a milk creamer, you can use a hand whisk to froth the milk.
