To brew Folgers Classic Roast, measure your desired amount of ground coffee into your coffee maker's filter basket. A common ratio is one to two tablespoons of coffee per six ounces of cold water, but you can adjust this to your preference. Pour fresh, cold water into the coffee maker's reservoir. Turn on the coffee maker and allow it to brew completely. Once brewing is finished, pour the coffee into your favorite mug. Add cream, sugar, or other flavorings as desired. For French press, steep the grounds in hot water for about four minutes before pressing.

Compared to lighter roasts, Folgers Classic Roast offers a bolder, more robust flavor profile.
