French Press

⁰¹ To know how much coffee to use: - 3 cup French Press: 15-16 grams of coffee - 4 cup French Press: 22-23 grams of coffee - 8 cup French Press: 45 grams of coffee

⁰² Pour the coffee grounds inside the French Press and place the French Press on the scale.

⁰³ To know how much water to use: *Water to use looks less because there needs to be room for your ground coffee. - 3 cup French Press: 200 grams of water - 4 cup French Press: 270 grams of water - 8 cup French Press: 540 grams of water

⁰⁴ You will need to get the timer ready for this. Pour enough boiling water (200 ̊F) using double the amount of coffee to saturate the grounds for about 30-40 seconds. For example, 15-16 grams of coffee, use 30 grams of boiling water to saturate. Immediately start the timer as soon as water hits the coffee grounds.

⁰⁵ After saturating the grounds for 30-40 seconds, add the rest of the water. For example, if you use 22-23 grams of coffee, you’ll need 270-30 grams = 240 grams (account for water used for saturating).

⁰⁶ Place the plunger on top and do not plunge. Let the coffee brew for 4 minutes.

⁰⁷ Apply pressure on the plunger, pushing the coffee grounds to the bottom.

⁰⁸ Pour the coffee immediately into your mug or a decanter. You do not want to leave remaining coffee inside the French Press to avoid over extraction.

⁰⁹ Enjoy your coffee!
