Folgers 100% Colombian Medium Roast Ground Coffee
What it is
This is a package of ground coffee made from 100% Colombian Arabica beans. The beans are medium roasted, which means they are heated for a moderate amount of time. This roasting process develops a balanced flavor profile. The coffee is ground to a medium consistency, suitable for most common brewing methods. It comes in a 9.6-ounce container.
How people cook with it
Ground coffee is a staple for many morning routines. It is used to brew a hot beverage that can be enjoyed on its own or with additions.
- Brewing drip coffee
- Making French press coffee
- Pour-over coffee preparation
- Cold brew coffee concentrate
To brew, measure the desired amount of ground coffee into your coffee maker's filter basket or brewing device. The typical ratio is one to two tablespoons of coffee per six ounces of water, but this can be adjusted to your preference. Heat fresh, cold water to just below boiling point. Pour the hot water over the grounds, allowing it to saturate evenly. Let the coffee brew completely, then serve immediately. For best results, use freshly ground beans, but this pre-ground option offers convenience.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to darker roasts, medium roasts like this one tend to have a smoother, less bitter taste. They retain more of the original bean's character. Lighter roasts might be more acidic, while darker roasts can have a more intense, smoky flavor. This coffee offers a middle ground.
Who it is for
This coffee is for anyone who enjoys a classic cup of coffee to start their day or for a mid-day pick-me-up.
How to keep the rest
After opening, store the remaining ground coffee in its original airtight container or transfer it to a separate airtight canister. Keep it in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid storing it in the refrigerator or freezer, as this can introduce moisture and odors.
