Coffee is 98% Water and 2% Coffee Bean!  To give yourself the best chance at a delicious cup of hot coffee at home, it's a good idea to pay attention to the water and the bean, which are two of my "Top 5" variables to focus on in your home coffee journey. Call to Action: Water....brew 1 batch of coffee with tap water, and another batch with filtered water.  Do you taste a difference? Call to Action: Beans...look for "Roast Date" the next time you purchase a bag of whole bean coffee.  Buy a bag that was roasted within the past 1-3 weeks for the best possible flavor!
