Proportions and Grind: It is important to follow the right proportions of coffee and water. Choose the grind of coffee according to your brewing method: medium grind for brewing in a cup. If you like a delicate flavor, use 20 grams of water per 1 gram of coffee; for a strong flavor, use 15 grams of water per 1 gram of coffee.

Cup shape: Choose a medium-sized cup so that the water does not cool down too quickly. It will allow the coffee to open up, creating the perfect flavor balance.

Water temperature: It is important to keep the water hot but not boiling, around 95 degrees. This temperature helps to preserve the aroma and flavor of the coffee.

Brewingtime: Brewing time depends on the shape of the cup. A wide, low cup will brew coffee faster than a narrow, tall cup. As a rule of thumb, 2-4 minutes is the ideal brewing time.
