Using a French press to make coffee is an old-fashioned way to enjoy your morning brew. To make a batch with this method, you need 12-18 grams of fresh, high-quality ground coffee beans, plus boiling water. Fill the carafe with the water and stir it in slowly to pick up all the grounds evenly. wait for approximately one minute, then press the plunger down slowly until all of the grounds have been immersed and allowed to steep fully (no paper filters required here!). Remove any pot pieces that are too fine as they will interfere with filter extraction when pressing and allow your beverage to cool for about three minutes before drinking or pouring it into a thermos carafe.

Using a French press to make coffee is a bit complicated but relatively simple in the end. You have to measure out the right proportions of coarsely-ground coffee, boiling water, and a filter sock; stir it all together; wait a few minutes for the flavors to blend; then pour the steeping brew into a mug (or carafe). 
The key is tamping — making sure that all of the grounds are submerged — otherwise you’ll be left with bitter and sour notes in your finished product. When brewing one cup at a time, this can be quite timely as there are more steps involved than when using an automatic drip coffeemaker. Despite that, many prefer its robust taste compared to other methods such as espresso or single-serving portable makers.
