COFFEE, TEA & ESPRESSO

Method

COFFEE, TEA & ESPRESSO

  1. 1

    Prepare equipment and measure coffee

    Set up a French press and pre-warm the carafe with hot water. Place 60 g of coarse-ground coffee into the press.

  2. 2

    Heat water

    Heat 1000 ml of filtered water to 93°C (200°F). Avoid boiling.

  3. 3

    Bloom grounds

    Pour about 120 ml of hot water over the grounds to saturate evenly. Let bloom for 30-45 seconds.

  4. 4

    Brew and extract

    Pour the remaining 880 ml of hot water in a slow, circular motion. Stir gently to ensure even extraction.

  5. 5

    Press and serve

    Attach the plunger and press down slowly after ~4 minutes of brewing. Immediately pour into warmed cups and enjoy fresh.
