Here is a step-by-step guide to preparing coffee with pre-ground coffee:
1. Bring the water to a boil.
2. Add the ground coffee and let it steep for typically 3 to 5 minutes.
3. Add 2 tablespoons of finely ground coffee.
4. Now let the coffee sit for 2 more minutes.
5. Take it off the fire, so it stops roiling and let it sit for a minute or two so the granules that are inclined to sink, go to the bottom of the pot (Remember, the finer the grind, the stronger the flavor).
6. Now sprinkle a little cold water on the grounds.
7. Now slowly pour your smooth brew and enjoy yourself modest self-congratulation.
