Moccamaster Recipe:

• Brew Ratio: 1:16
• Coffee Beans: Medium-Coarse Grind
• Kettle: Cold or Room-Temperature Water

You’ll need:

• Moccamaster Brewer
• Moccamaster Paper Filters #4
• Scales or a Moccamaster Measuring Spoon
• Medium-to-coarsely ground coffee (roasted for filter)
• Cold/room-temperature water (for your brew)
• Hot water (to rinse your paper filter)

Brew Ratio Guide:

• 1 Cup: 15g or 2.5 scoops of ground coffee : 250mL water
• 2 Cups: 30g or 3 scoops : 500mL
• 3 Cups: 45g or 4.5 scoops : 750mL
• 4 Cups: 60g or 6 scoops : 1L
• 5 Cups: 75g or 7.5 scoops : 1.25L

Method:

1. Fill the water reservoir with cool (preferably filtered) water, following your brew ratio.
2. Place a paper filter into the filter basket, ensuring it fits nicely.
3. Optional but recommended: Rinse both the filter and coffee carafe with hot water to remove any papery taste and ensure warmth.
4. Scoop the required amount of ground coffee into the pre-wet filter paper.
5. Place the filter basket back onto the Moccamaster, ensuring the flow control is open for a full carafe.
6. For Select and Classic models, toggle the selector switch to your desired carafe size.
7. Turn on the Moccamaster and let it brew. Serve & enjoy!

Notes:

• Weigh & measure the ground coffee for accuracy.
• Adjust grind size if extraction is too slow or too bitter.
• For weaker coffee, add hot water to your cup rather than changing the brew ratio.
• Experiment with different coffee varieties or roast profiles for desired strength.
• Cleaning and descaling your machine every 3-4 months is recommended for optimal performance.
