How to Make Good CoffeeAs told by Costa Rica’s Café Britt.

First, you’ve got to grow the coffee

plants. This whole process can take up to three years, just

trying to nurse good plants!

Next, you’ve got to pick the coffee cherries. With these coffee cherries you must ferment them, so

that each layer of the cherry falls off until you reach the actual coffee bean.

Then, with the coffee beans, you must take very good care of them. Workers will spend all day plowing through the beans.

This helps to dry the beans off from their ex-cherry form.

Once the beans are ready, they are grinded

up in a machine and then packaged, ready to

be bought.

Here’s the fun part! Now you get to brew the

coffee. You can use your coffee pot at home, or

you can try your hand at a traditional old

fashioned Coffee Maker… It might take a

while though.

Congratulations!

You now know how to make coffee! Enjoy!
