Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Measure Coffee

    Using a measuring cup, measure out 1 cup of coarse ground coffee. This is the foundation for your French press brew.

  2. 2

    Boil Water

    In a kettle, bring 4 cups of filtered water to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and let it sit for about 30 seconds to cool slightly.

Brewing

  1. 3

    Add Coffee to French Press

    Place the coarse ground coffee into the French press. Make sure it is evenly distributed across the bottom.

  2. 4

    Pour Water

    Slowly pour the hot water over the coffee grounds in the French press. Ensure that all the coffee grounds are saturated, and stir gently with a wooden or plastic spoon to mix.

  3. 5

    Steep

    Place the lid on the French press with the plunger pulled all the way up. Let the coffee steep for about 4 minutes. Adjust steeping time based on your taste preference.

  4. 6

    Press and Serve

    After steeping, gently press the plunger down to separate the coffee grounds from the brewed coffee. Pour the coffee into your cups and enjoy!
