Press Pot, or French Press, is a thicker or heavier cup of coffee. It bursts with flavor since all the oils from the extracting coffee grounds ends up in your cup. This is my personal favorite way to brew coffee.

 

What you'll need:

 

 

How Much Liquid Coffee Do you Desire?

you can brew various amounts of coffee with a press pot method. Decide between one of these alternatives so you know how much water and grounds you need to prepare:

 

16 Ounces of Brewed Coffee

32 Ounces of Brewed Coffee

51 Ounces of Brewed Coffee

 

Make sure your particular press can hold that much water before you begin.

 

 

Time to Brew!

Now that we've gathered all we need, let's starting brewing! Follow these steps:

 

 

Step One

Fill your kettle with water and boil.

 

 

Step Two

Grind the necessary amount of coffee beans based on the chart above. Put the ground into the press pot and place the pot on your scale. Tare your scale to ZERO.

 

 

Step Three

Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula. Give it one or two rotations.

Set a timer for four minutes. Let the coffee brew.

When the timer concludes, stir again. Then place the press lid on top and slowly press the plunger down until all the grounds are tightly pressed to the bottom.

 

 

Step Seven

Decant the brew into your cup or an insulated vessel.
