Equipment

  • 1 Coffee Grinder
  • 1 Glass

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Filtered Water
  • ¼ cup Roasted Coffee

Instructions

  • Using a coffee grinder, coarsely grind the whole, roasted coffee beans (not fine grind as that can block the coffee filter and cause pressure in the French press).
  • Water is brought to a boil, then allowed to stand for two minutes.
  • Pour the boiling water over the freshly ground coffee after adding it to the press. Give it a short stir with a pastic spoon, then cover it with the lid without pressing the plunger down.
  • Give the coffee 4 minutes to brew (if you like lighter coffee do a minute less, for stronger coffee do 5-6 minutes).
  • Pour the coffee into the cups while gently depressing the plunger.
