To brew Maison du café Classique, use your preferred coffee maker, whether it's a drip machine, French press, or pour-over. Measure the ground coffee according to your taste preference and the instructions for your brewing device. Typically, one to two tablespoons of coffee per six ounces of water is a good starting point. Heat fresh, cold water to just below boiling, around 200°F (93°C). Pour the hot water over the grounds, ensuring they are fully saturated. Allow the coffee to brew for the recommended time for your method, then serve immediately. Adjust the coffee-to-water ratio for a stronger or milder cup.

How to keep the rest
To keep the remaining coffee fresh, store it in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Avoid refrigeration or freezing, as this can introduce moisture and alter the flavor. Ensure the container is sealed tightly after each use to preserve the aroma and taste of the grounds.
