You don't need a brewer, but you will need either a grinder or ground coffee.

1. Grind coffee for pour over. It should be a little coarser than grinding for a drip coffee maker. (This will be a medium setting on most grinders.)

2. Use 2 level tablespoons of ground coffee for every 6 ounces of water. (3 Tbsp for 9 oz water)

3. Heat water to boiling, but pour in the cup when it's just off the boil.

4. After 4 minutes, gently break the crust on top of the water. Take a soup spoon and move it back and forth three times.

5. After 2 more minutes, remove the foam on top with the soup spoon.

6. The coffee is now ready to drink. Enjoy it black, or add milk and/or sugar.
