My perfect coffee: Pour over coffee using Costa Rican Brit or Costa Rican 1820 Coffee.
I use the Bodum Pour Over Coffee set and the Melitta Pour Over Single Cup.
Boil water. Let it rest for a couple of minutes. Pour a little over the coffee grounds to “proof” them. Wait 45+ seconds. Pour water over grounds in a thin, slow, steady stream. Take your time. This will produce “la crema”, the vanilla colored foam that indicates the perfect pour over.
From there I add: a level teaspoon of monk fruit sugar, a scoop of collagen, approx. 1 tablespoon+ of heavy whipping cream. Give a gentle stir.
And now the truth. It takes me longer to make this perfect cup of coffee than it takes for me to drink it. Hot, creamy, and comforting. It is so delicious!
