French Press Brew Guide
The French Press has always been a favorite of ours. While we don’t use it in our cafés, it remains one of the most honest and expressive ways to brew coffee at home.
Unlike the V60, there is no paper filter. The metal mesh allows the natural oils and fine particles of the coffee to pass into the cup, creating a fuller body and a heavier mouthfeel. Its less about clarity, more about weight, sweetness, and presence.
In this guide, we walk you through a simple process to brew it at home.
The process is simple, and the mindset shifts from full control of variables and technique to letting time and immersion do the work.
Its less about precision in pouring, more about allowing the coffee to fully express its natural character given by immersion time, grind size, and the gentle initial agitation before plunging.
Give it time, and let immersion take over. The result is a richer, sweeter, and more full-bodied cup.
Ratio: 30g coffee / 500g water
Serve and enjoy.
