HOW WE BREW: MOCCAMASTER + PRECISION BREWER EDITION
If you are hosting a party or just having friends over for brunch, there are a few ways you can brew large batches of coffee both efficiently and deliciously.
For larger groups, an automated coffee brewer can be a lifesaver. Benefits of an automated brewer include speed, efficiency, and allowing you to step away from the coffee as it brews and mingle with guests. The Madcap Coffee team love both the Moccamaster and Breville’s Precision Brewer.
Gathering around coffee fosters connection and conversation. While many enjoy coffee in the morning, it can be particularly well suited after a holiday meal or for an impromptu friend gathering. No matter the occasion, coffee can be an excellent vessel for sharing some quality time together.

HERE ARE A FEW TIPS WHEN SHARING COFFEE WITH A FRIEND:
- Use filtered water. Water is the main ingredient in brewed coffee. The quality of your water will have a prominent impact on the flavor of your brewed coffee.
- Grind right before use. A burr grinder will give you the most even results.
- Have fun! Brewing coffee is about what you like. Try tweaking the recipe a bit. Or brew two different coffees and try them both out side-by-side.
