Observe Coffee
Measurements Carefully

Coffee experts say that good
coffee is never made haphazardly.
Both water and coffee should be
measured accurately by standard
measuring spoons and cups. Your
taste for strong or not so strong
coffee will guide your measure
ments. II you use the vacuum
method, be sure 10 have the water
boiling in the lower bowl before
the upper bowl, containing filter
and coffee. is adjusted. Almost
Immediately, the water in the low
er bowl will rise through the tube
to the upper section When all
but the small amount of water be-
low the tube has risen. stir the
mixture in the upper bowl and
turn the flame very low. If you
use very fine grind, coffee
should remain in the upper bowl
about two minutes before turning
out the flame: II coarse grind,
about five minutes. When all the
coffee has returned to the lower
bowl, remove the upper compart-
ment. Then coffee is ready TO
serve, fragrant and hot.
