My default coffee making is to heat milk, add coffee and steep it for a couple of minutes before I sieve it and voila.
This does not seem to work for this coffee. I have tried water, boiling it with the water or milk and it simply will not mix. What am I missing?
Edit: I know about grinding, I have a burr grinder, a French press and I know the various ways to make coffee. None of the methods I know, work.
Burr grinder = bar grinder. I made that mistake.
If your typically coffee disolves in hot milk, then you might be used to instant coffee. What you've shown here is a bag of coffee beans and a bag of ground coffee beans. This requires a different method than with instant coffee.
Not instant coffee. Grind beans and then steep them. The picture is of ground coffee. It looks like charcoal. It's not instant, and despite running it through a press, it does not mix.
Ground coffee does not mix with water. That’s only instant coffee. Ground coffee needs to be brewed.
That is just it. Even brewing is not working.
