Preparing Coffee Ahead

I had a hard time deciding what to post today, there is so much I want to share with you.

For some reason, maybe because I’m not a coffee drinker, I don’t like making coffee. It’s really not a big deal, but I’m just not crazy about doing it. So, to make it easier on myself and my husband, who is the coffee drinker, I make up a container full of coffee filters ahead of time.

First I found a container that would hold quite a few (I usually do at least 7) coffee filters with coffee in them. I spooned the coffee into the filters, put the lid on and put it in the frig.

Then they are ready for me or my husband to get the coffee ready.

    Clever idea! I hate when I forget to make my coffee the night before and I have to stumble around getting it ready early in the morning. This would make it much easier!

    I worked at a restaurant for a couple years in high school and that’s how they would do their coffee during the morning rush. It’s so much faster :)

    I do this at home and at work. Invariably I will go to the work coffee maker and there is less than a cup of coffee in all 3 pots because most people will walk away without making coffee. If the filters are there, full, with a container of water they will make coffee. It works for us all this way.
