How To Make French Press Coffee
Once you learn how easy it is to make the perfect cup of french press coffee, you may never use your coffee maker again! Step-by-step photos included.
- Finely ground coffee 4-5 scoops or 1/3 cup depending on how strong you like your coffee
- Boiling water 3-4 cups
- Half-and-half cream and sweetener for serving agave coffee syrup, coconut sugar, honey, ect
Place ground coffee in a french press pot. Pour boiling water over grounds, filling the french press 3/4 full. Let sit 4 minutes so the coffee grounds can "bloom" in the boiling water.
Once coffee grounds have soaked, place french press top on top of the pot and very slowly press down on the lever until you reach the bottom of the pot.
Pour coffee into cups and add half-and-half cream and sweetener if desired. Enjoy immediately!
