French Press Coffee

Yields12 ServingsPrep Time10 minsTotal Time10 mins

 50 oz water
 14 tbsp coffee grounds
1

The first thing you need to do is heat the water for the press using either an electric kettle or a stovetop pot. We recommend heating just a bit more than the 50 oz you need for the brew - this is to ensure that you can heat the press first.

2

Once the water heats up, pour the excess water into the press, swirl it around for a bit, and dispose of the water. By doing this you are ensuring that your brew stays at its optimal temperature level for a much longer time.

3

Now, add your coffee grounds into the press. For a full 12-cup press you can use about 12 to 14 tablespoons of coffee grounds. If you do not prefer that bold flavor, you can add less but your brew might taste a bit watery.

4

Pour the 50 oz of hot water over the grounds.

5

Assemble the coffee plunger and place it in its position atop the press. Push the plunger down so that the filter sits just above the water level.

6

Let the coffee steep in the press for 4 minutes and then press the plunger all the way down.
