If you use vacuum-packed coffee in a pound can and it lasts a week in your household, and if you like really strong coffee, you may wish to add extra coffee when you brew it during the last few days of the week. Once opened, and even if it's kept in the refrigerator, the coffee gradually loses some of its aromatic quality. The extra amount added to the coffee pot helps to make up for this loss. Dry yeast dissolves more readily in water than it does in milk.
