French Press: how to brew it
French Press
Coarse grind
Written for a washed, medium-roast arabica. Open this from one of our coffees and the numbers change to suit it.
- Coffee
- 30 g
- Water
- 500 ml about 2 cups
- Water temperature
- 94 °C — boiled, then left about half a minute
- Brew time
- 4 minutes
That is a ratio of 1:17, if you would rather scale it.
- Add the coffee and all the water at once.
- Leave it four minutes, then break the crust with a spoon.
- Lift the foam off the top.
- Press the plunger down slowly and pour it all out.
- It is ground for this brewer already. If it runs through too fast, use a little more coffee rather than reaching for a finer grind.
Ground coarse for this brewer before it was bagged.
