Water quality

Since coffee is mostly water, water that tastes bad will result in coffee that tastes bad. Try to filter your water, or use bottled or filtered water to avoid the unpleasant flavor often found in regular tap water.

 

Water temperature

Boiling temperatures and prolong heating deteriorate the flavor of the coffee and will result in coffee that is bitter in taste. Thus water at about 200 F produces the best result, and can be achieved by boiling the water and leaving it to cool for a couple of minutes.

 

Freshness is key

Coffee will start to break down shortly after three minutes on a warmer, and usually turns bitter in taste in about 20 minutes. Reheating coffee should always be avoided. Enjoy your coffee right away.
