Not only is brewing with a press, or a plunger one of the easiest ways to savor a cup in the morning, it's also the brewing process that allows you to enjoy every little thing in your cup. With French press, everything is incorporated in your cup -flavors and natural oils, which means more room to enjoy the coffee.
Step 1:
Grind your coffee and measure your water.
Keep your grind to a texture that resembles a sea salt, since you wouldn't want your grounds to filter out through the plunger mesh. For the measurement, use 2 tablespoon per 6oz water.
Step 2:
Pre-heat your press.
Fill the press with hot water to establish temperature, before adding your coffee grounds.
Step 3:
Scoop grounds then add hot water.
Add your coffee grounds to the press, then fill with hot water that's just off the boil. Always use filtered water.
Step 4:
Steep for 4 minutes.
Insert your plunger back to the press, and brew coffee for 4 minutes.
Step 5:
Press then pour.
After 4 minutes, press the plunger down, to keep the grounds at the bottom before pouring your coffee to the cup.
