This guide is for those who don't have an available Auto-drip coffee maker at home. For those who have, brewing the coffee is just the same, the taste will just depend on how much ground beans you have placed. Remember that, Baraco coffee is known to have a strong, earthly and herbal taste. If you don't want a strong blend, you are free to adjust the amount of ground bean or water.
1.) If you ordered for a whole bean. Make sure that you have a coffee bean grinder available as grinding will help the extraction of the beans easily.
2.) Grind your beans according to your need. There are several ways of grinding your bean but the three kinds are commonly used: Coarse, medium and fine. But for this guide, a coarse grind will do.

Auto-drip coffee makers can also be used.
Medium: Perfectly used for Auto-Drip coffee makers
Fine: Generally used for Espresso Machines.
3.) After grinding your beans, measure approximately 200 mL of purified, filtered water (Never use distilled water if you don't want your coffee to mess up.) and heat it up until it boils.
4.) While waiting for your water to boil, measure 2tbsp. or 10 grams of your ground Casa Liberica coffee beans and place it in a container (ceramic or stainless). Never use plastic.
5.) Upon boiling of the water, measure 180 mL from the 200 mL water you have just boiled and placed it in the ground coffee beans.(At this step, foam will occur but don't panic because this is normal.)
6.) Set your timer to 5 minutes and cover your container. Slowly and gently mix your coffee every minute.
Note: Covering your container will increase the extraction of your beans while keeping it hot.
Tip: You may place your mixture in a clean thermos. (Make sure that your thermos is only for this kind of coffee.)
7.) Using a mesh or a cheesecloth, or anything that can filter your coffee. Slowly and gently pour your coffee on to a separate container. If you are not going to consume all of your brewed coffee, a thermos is needed to keep your coffee hot.
