What's So Great About a French Press?

Have you figured out the ins and outs of your coffee brewing yet? Then you must try the French Press! If you have any mysterious ideas about it being more difficult or tedious to use than a traditional coffee maker, then you, my friend, are dead wrong, and that is great news for you! A French press works by you placing coarsely ground fresh coffee beans in the bottom of the pot (and it is usually clear), and then you will add hot water. I advise you not to add boiling water since this could burn the beans. After that, you will place the lid on it, and you will let it steep for up to four minutes. From that point, you will plunge down the strainer directly so that you don't let any grounds escape, and you have a final coffee product that is delicious and decadent. And why is that? Well, for one thing, you have saved all of the essential oils that have not been removed through a paper filter so that your brew tastes amazing. Another thing, it is eco-friendly because you are not using paper filters that you throw away every day. And finally, for all of you type A coffee lovers, you can have total control of your brewing process by deciding the temperature of the water, the extraction time, and how long the grounds are saturated. Fantastic, fantastic, fantastic!
