Q
What makes a good cup of coffee?
A
Expert Answer
Subjectivity dominates, but generally: freshly roasted (within 2-4 weeks), freshly ground, proper water temperature (195-205°F), correct ratio (1:15-1:17 coffee to water by weight), appropriate grind size for brewing method, and clean equipment. Bean origin and roast level are personal preference.
