Question

What's the best time to add coffe to the coffee maker for the next morning? I was wonder how many hours the coffee can stay in the machine before it looses it's strength.

Answer 1

Just a few minutes before you go to bed the night before. Also if the coffee remains dry then it shouldn't loose its strength

Answer 2

usually before i go to bed

Answer 3

I wouldn't put it in until time to brew.

Answer 4

If its dry it can be in there all night when you set it up before going to bed. Or get one of those coffee pods that has premeasured amounts in it. Im more of a tea or hot chocolate person sorry its not better help. Only if your coffee grouinds where wet would you have a problem. Leave the grounds dry and fill the water well, if oy have a timer set it, if not just leave a note on your alarm clock to flip the switch as soon as you get to the kitchen, so its brewing while your waking up and getting ready for the day.

Answer 5

The night before, right before I go to bed.

Answer 6

Ideally coffee should go from bean, to grinder, to brewer. Any amount of time it spends not in an airtight container will affect it.

If you need to, do it before you go to bed the night before. But the best is to spend the 3.5 seconds in the morning, and put the grinds in.
