-
Combine Coffee and Water: Place the ground coffee in a bowl.
-
Saturate the Grounds: Pour a small amount of the hot water over the grounds to saturate them.

Separate Grounds: According to the reference, use a tablespoon to press the settled coffee grounds to the bottom of the bowl. Hold the spoon in place and pour the brew into a mug. Repeat for each serving.
By following these steps, you can enjoy freshly brewed coffee without a machine.
