Don't underestimate the rich dark coffee that only this simple but elegant brewing method can make. The French Press coffeemaker is great for entertaining a small, intimate group of friends.
To use a French Press:
- Start with freshly roasted beans, coarsely ground
- Add the grinds to the glass beaker
- Fill with boiling water and stir with a non-metal spoon
- Let the grinds steep for 3-4 minutes.
- Then, slowly press down the plunger and pour.
This deep, dark, rich coffee will have some sediment....but that's what makes it one of Europe's best kept secrets!
