Brewing the best coffee:

• Use quality fresh roasted coffee whenever possible. 
• Grind the coffee as close to use as possible.
• Use 1 Tbs of coffee per 6 ounce cup and then adjust for your tastes from there.
• Always use fresh filtered water (chlorine will destroy the flavors and oils in the coffee) 
• Don't rush, we all like that first cup immediately.  Wait until the pot is finished brewing. 
• The oil in your cup?  It is supposed to be there...  :-)
• Clean your pot and cups thoroughly (vinegar. denture cleaning tablets and many commercial cleaners do the trick)
• Always start fresh.  Never reuse grounds.
• A new pot should be brewed after an hour.
