Your Guide To French Press

1

Preheat your cafetière by pouring in some boiling water and giving it a swirl.

2

Discard the water, then put in your coffee.





3

Pour some just-off boiling water (ideally 94ËšC) over the dry coffee andsaturate all the grounds.

4

Let it steep for four minutes, with the plunger cap on, but not pressed down(that’ll stop the heat escaping).

5

Remove the plunger then stir three times.

6

Replace the plunger, and carefully plunge at a consistent pace and for best results, decant the finished brew.
