- Put two full tablespoonfuls of finely-ground coffee in a well warmed pitcher;
- pour on it a pint of freshly-boiled water, and stir it to saturate the coffee: cover close with a cloth pressed into the top, and let it stand on the range five minutes.
- Have another heated vessel (a pitcher, if you choose);
- lay a piece of muslin (scalded) over it, and pour the coffee carefully through it.
- This will be clear, fragrant coffee.
