I've learned a trick or two with my Mr. Coffee Maker too. I've heard that the first few "drips" out of the internal nozzle are too cold and that the whole pot can be under extracted as a result. So, I have a Mr. Coffee Maker with a drip arm that swings out of the way. Before I close the lid, I swing the spout away from the coffee basket and direct the first few spurts back into the reservoir. This allows it to throw back the first few colder shots back into the reservoir for recycling.

My coffee maker also comes with a stopper that prevents coffee from running out of the machine if the coffee pot (carafe) isn't present. This is how I "bloom" the coffee grounds. So, with the coffee pot out of the machine, I swing the internal spout back over the dry coffee grounds in the basket and close the lid. The water pours into the basket but it does not come out because the pot is not in place.

After about a minute or so, I place the pot (carafe) onto the burner, which unstops the mechanism, allowing the coffee (now well bloomed) to empty into the carafe. This delicate dance works pretty well.

I use an espresso grind, which I think tastes richer than the standard grind. I also use bottled spring water rather than tap water because God only knows what the municipal water supply is polluted with. I mean, it looks clean but with all the chlorine and fluoride they dump in that crap, it's a wonder we can safely bathe in the stuff.

Wow! I commend you guys! Not being coffee snobs and helping people enjoy your coffee! You guys are great 👍 I love your coffee and bought all the little gadgets to make a perfect cup of coffee. But....i'm ashamed to say that living in the cold north...sometimes its about getting something warm/hot and fast to drink. I going to try this for fun.

As soon as the "bloom" was mentioned, I knew exactly what they were going to do. Good idea, especially if you're conscious enough in the morning to be able to do this! 😊

Arturo is the MAN!!! Thank you guys for the insightful and inspiring video. Will try that this morning. :)

I was actually thinking about that today. Turning it off and letting it bloom for a while and then on again. Two thoughts though. One is, each cup either in the carafe or on the maker itself, as I tested, is only 4 oz. A mug, filled to brim, to my surprise, is 16 oz. Or 12 oz to make room for cream and such. I think the 4 oz measure was based on those small cups in a fancy China set. So considering using 4 tbpn for 12 oz, essentially, you are making one cup of coffee. If you have two people and two cups per morning each, that's about 12 cups. So that would mean you would need 16 tbspn of coffee for 4 cups. Now that would be an expensive 4 big cups of coffee.

I prefer cold brew in the summer. First, I grind my beans to a medium coarseness, and then put in a little hot water and let it sit for the infusion process. After about 30 sec to a minute, I stir it to crack the crust, put in the cold water, and then let it sit in the fridge for about 24 hours before drinking. I have tried all of The Morning Movement Coffees, except intuition- I didn’t make it in time, and my favorite has been Dreamland. It’s beautiful brewed hot in the French press, but as a cold brew, it’s amazing. I have truly enjoyed your specialty roasts and instructional videos for enjoying it at its finest! You guys rock!! 💗☕️

[chrisdelacruz]

This is the most helpful coffee video I’ve seen!

[poshmaster]

your video helped me so much, because I have a coffee dripper!

[MrJohnnyboyrebel]

I have a Breville coffee machine and it does pause while brewing without any intervention from me. It makes awesome coffee, and the stainless steel carafe keeps the coffee hot for hours. It’s the best $300 I ever spent on a quality coffee machine.

Enjoyable cup of coffee now. Thanks.
