A page keeping my notes on making a tasty press coffee.
- Boil some water
- Grind 70 g of beans per litre (as coarse and consistent as possible)
- Use a small amount of water to pre-heat the press and cup
- Add the grounds to the (emptied) press and pour in water
- Of course empty the press of the pre-heat water
- Place the press on scales to accurately measure the water
- Leave to steep for 4 minutes
- Break the surface tension with a spoon, so that the coffee cake drops into solution
- Scope out the majority of foam and grounds that are still at the top (to reduce sludge)
- Press the coffee
- Pour and drink
