<human>:  What is the best way to make coffee for a crowd?
<bot>: The best way to make coffee for a crowd is to use a large coffee maker, such as a drip coffee maker, with a carafe. You can make a large batch of coffee quickly and easily with a carafe, and you won't have to worry about someone's individual preferences. Additionally, you can also look into getting a coffeepot with a timer, allowing you to have a hot pot of coffee ready when people arrive.
