Immersion
French Press
Full-bodied and forgiving. Great for blends and darker roasts.
- 1
Preheat the press with hot water, then discard it.
- 2
Add 30 g of coarse coffee and pour 450 g of water over it. Start the timer.
- 3
At 4:00, stir the crust gently and scoop off the foam and floating grounds.
- 4
Wait another 4 minutes without plunging. Fines settle and the cup gets cleaner.
- 5
Press the plunger just below the surface and pour immediately.
Tips from the bar
- Skip the hard plunge. Pressing to the bottom stirs up sediment.
- Morning Frame and Sumatra Mandheling are built for this.
