1. Make sure that your equipment is clean.

2. Boil the kettle. Rinse out the Plunger with hot water to warm. Then depending on the size add coffee ( 2 desert spoons per large pot is good for me) Add the water to the coffee.  use the dessert spoon to stir coffee 3 times in one direction then 3 times in the other direction.

3. Heat the cups with the boiling water. Also a nice touch is to heat the milk in the microwave.

4. After five minutes press the plunger down on the coffee. Then prepare each cup as you would like.

I always store my coffee grounds in the freezer as I dont use very much and it takes me ages to get through. Keeping it in the freezer allows me to keep it longer.

I also pour the used coffee grounds on my garden as the plants love it (when they are cooled) and it doesnt block the drain.

Enjoy!
