THREE EASY WAYS TO BREW COFFEE
-
The French Press
The French Press was invented in 1929, and is considered as one of the best and easier methods of brewing coffee. It extracts, arguably, more “superior flavors” than other contemporary methods.
In a press pot, ground coffee is wetted, steeped and strained in hot boiling water; the coffee is rather flavorful as the oils, caffeine and antioxidants are deeply diffused allowing the purest flavors of the coffee to be retained. the taste experience is amazing but it does come across as probably a rather unhealthy method of brewing.
- Coffee Grind : Medium Fine
- Amount : 1 tablespoon for a cup
- Brewing Time: 4/5 minutes
- Sizes : Various sizes up to 8 cups of coffee
2. SOUTH INDIAN FILTER POT
South Indian Filter Coffee is made very similarly to French Press, but without the plunger that pushes the grounds downwards. Instead you will find that the grounds are left to mix with the hot water for a long while and slowly drip the decoction into the pot below.
- Coffee Grind : Medium Coarse
- Amount : 1 tablespoon for a cup (Do not overfill the top)
- Brewing Time: 7 to 10 minutes
- Sizes : Various sizes 2 cups onwards.
The process is simple. Just fill the top with coarsely ground filter coffee powder and pour boiling water over the coffee grounds and let it slowly steep into the jar below.
Pour the brew into a cup and top it with hot foaming milk.
3. The MOKA POT
Patented back in 1933 by Alfonso Bialetti, the MOKA POT uses steam pressure from boiled water poured in the lower chamber to pass through coffee grounds in the mid chamber of the pot. Brewed coffee seeps into the upper chamber slowly releasing amazing aroma and brew.
- Coffee Grind : Medium Coarse / Medium Fine
- Amount : 11/2 tablespoon for a cup (Do not overfill the top)
- Brewing Time: 7 to 10 minutes
- Sizes : Various sizes 1 cup onwards.
- Great flavor to taste.
- Brings out the intensity of the grounds eachtime.
- Advised not to fill water above safety limit.
While there is a wide acceptance that manual brewing allow for better control on the coffee experience. For some it is just fascinating to have a hands-on experience in a bid to improve with each brew rather than just watch the coffee brew at the push of a button. The methods may vary, but the only way to get good results is to ensure your coffee is in top shape.

Beginners Guide to Moka Pot Coffee
THE MOKA POT
The Moka Pot is a gas top coffee brewing equipment that was created by inventor Luigi De Ponti for Alfonso Bialetti in the early 1930s. From Italy it spread across the world in less than a decade. Seen in almost every household today, the MOKA POT is known for its reputation to dish out an espresso like brew in the comforts of your home.
So lets jump in to the basics and method.
THINGS YOU NEED:
- URBAN BEANS FILTER COFFEE : Silver Sky, Urban Truth or Gold Mist
- MOKA POT : Size depending on the cups you want to brew.
- Water : Hot almost to a boiling temperature
- A small towel or kitchen tissue.
PREPARATION:
- Fill up the Moka Pot Coffee basket to the top, take a spoon edge and cut around the grounds with it. Do not tamp the grounds. Do not pack it too tight.
- Fill the water chamber with “hot to boiling water” (70 Deg C) up to the very bottom of the release valve.
- Wet a tissue or towel and chill it in your freezer, if possible maybe 15 mins before you start or just keep it ready. It needs to be cool once your POT is ready to pour.
- Assemble the Moka Pot, making sure no coffee is seen on the ridges ensuring the assembly pieces screw together well.
- Set it on your gas-stove and turn it to low-medium heat. If you can, place it on the edge of the burner to avoid the handle getting too hot and melting if it is made of a polymer or plastic.
- The process is slow, so do not loose patience and keep opening the lid. It will be easily 7-8 minutes before the action starts. A light stream of hot steam will appear through the spout.
- Slowly and surely, the brew should start seeping into the upper chamber. This means the pressure is working and that the coffee is brewing. If it’s spurting like your grumpy old landlord, you worked up the heat a bit too high – turn that baby down!
- When the coffee is about 60 – 80% of the way up to the spout (make a guess) take it off the burner and put it directly onto the cold tissue. Cooling the pot rapidly helps keep over extracted, bitter liquid from funneling to your coffee. The color should resemble dark honey in ideal cases. Although, a darker color does not mean bad taste.
- Pour and serve immediately in a style that best suits your palate.
2 Cents : Under no circumstances should you ever tamp the grounds in a Moka pot. While it’s necessary in an espresso machine, it’s a recipe for disaster with Moka pots.
CLEANING
Cleaning the MOKA POT well after use is extremely important. All you need is warm water, light dish cleaning liquid soap, a soft brush is all you need.
Carefully and slowly, reach all the crevices and parts of the MOKA POT to clean it well. Be gentle with the filter mesh so as to not damage it. Dry it well and store in a clean dry place.
