Yes. I fill my own k-cups, and brew a strong small cup, then add an equal amount of hot milk and a little sugar. So good.

That's how I prepare it. I like my coffee strong so I always add a little extra. You may have to play with it to get the right amount depending on how you like it. I hope this answers your question.

yes, you just put it in your coffee maker and brew like any other coffee. I found 6 tablespoons to a whole pot of coffee worked best.

Perfect with french press. Did not order beans. Coffee was all ready ground but I say it was fine ground. Very smooth coffee. I usually drink Peet's but we tried Death Wish Coffee and it is the World's Best Coffee. Ready to see it in Costco. :)

Use Starbucks coffee, an espresso machine with a steamer (though I use a French Press and microwave my milk), 2 squirts of DaVinci syrup, and you have it!

You can probably buy them right here on Amazon - search for Coffee Pods I buy some from Quill.com - Donut Shop Coffee in both regular and decaf is delicious.

To make REGULAR-STRENGTH COFFEES:2 Tbsp for each 6-ounces of water for LIGHT ROASTED coffees; only use 1 Tbsp per 6-ounces of water for MEDIUM ROAST COFFEES; a bit less for dark/caramelized coffees. Your particular coffee beans/roast may differ slightly in proportions. Yes, you have to double or triple the amount to make a concentrate. It takes LOTS of ground coffee to make a standard hot brew; it takes even more to make a cold concentrate. It also depends on the coarseness/fineness of the grind. I use a drip/percolator grind and it is always great in a press. French Press grind is between drip/percolator grind. Have fun with your yummy brewed/steeped/infused coffees!

I heat the water in an electric auto shut off pot. Add grinds to the french press, add boiling water once done, cover, let sit for less than a minute while I heat milk for thirty seconds in the microwave, push top down on press gently, pour into milk already in cup. A few less steps if you like black coffee. Easier and more efficient than an electric percolator and gives me just the right amount. Good luck.

I don't see why not; so long as the water can pass through the coffee and extract the flavor you can enjoy it; at the least, it's worth the try; I have been using Cafe Du Monde with Chcory now forsome time and am quite partial to it. Note, if the coffee is not strong enough for you then try the French Roast. It would be interesting to hear from you how your coffee comes out. Good luck. ed

I am not sure of the actual percentage, but you can taste the chicory. The aroma provides a pleasant notice of the chicory. Can't vouch for the caffeine content. I do not brew this by it self. Instead, I mix about a tablespoon of this with some beans that I grind myself. If caffeine is a concern, the same brand offers a non-caffeinated version on Amazon.

I use regular coffee. Be sure not to over fill the filter or else your machine will make a mess.

You could use a press to steep the coffee, but you would have to do it too frequently, and I don't know that the french press would clear the grounds out of the finished product. The Filtron use a wool filter that captures the smallest of particles leaving you with a rich, clean, beautiful carafe of coffee concentrate. Enough to last you about two weeks - give or take - depending on how often you enjoy the concentrate. I agree with Frizzy hair... this method of brewing coffee definitely brings out the chocolate flavors in your coffee.

It is best if you extract everything into one carafe, then divide into your two cups. Your taste may vary, but i would use 3-4 scoops of coffee, place the press over the carafe, add hot water up to the #4 marker, stir until some of the coffee drains to reach the #2 marker, then insert the plunger and press the rest of the coffee out. You do need to build up the volume of air above the coffee liquid before squeezing because the air helps push out the extract retained by the wet grounds. Then you can divide the concentrated extract equally into the two cups and dilute with hot water as needed.

1) Be sure to use coarsely ground coffee - either grind it yourself or in the store but it must be coarse - not the relatively find grind in pre ground coffee in tins 2) I suspect you can find a manual online (it is quite brief) if you cannot find it I will scan and pdf the 3 important pages and send them

Add water to a regular coffee cup, place in microwave for 2 minutes, then open the packet of coffee and pour it into the hot cup of water, and stir....enjoy!

NO, NOT REGULAR GROUND COFFEE, You will need to use "ESPRESSO" Which is SUPER FINE GROUND UP COFFEE.

I grind Starbucks mixed with other beans and use French press for hot or iced coffee plus davinci sugar free caramel several pumps depending on cup size. Enjoy!

I don't understand what is meant by "suitable". This coffee does not come in instant so how else would you make it unless you brew it? I have a coffee maker and I make it every time I want coffee and it tastes great.
