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.

    I expected this. The coffee tastes like charcoal.

    I’ve made progress in this whole situation, based on insight and feedback on this post, and will update tomorrow.

        I’m late making up a cup of this. But I got it to work and want to share a recipe. This should be what I am drinking tomorrow, so I hopefully will post then.
