If you want to make the perfect cup of coffee, you might want to try a new method. Here are six geeky ways to brew your best-ever beverage.
Cafetieres/French presses are very popular in Europe and are measured in “cups” which are equivalent to the US half cup or about four ounces. To make a perfect cup of coffee, put in two level tablespoons of course-ground coffee beans per mug.
Boil a kettle of water then allow it to rest for a minute or so in order not to scald the beans. Pour in hot water equal to the number of mugs. Stir briskly to mix the grounds with the water. Put the lid on the cafetiere with the plunger raised fully.
Let the cafetiere sit and brew the coffee for about four minutes. Press the plunger gently all the way down. If you need to use force to press the plunger then the coffee is not fully brewed.
