Longer French press method I saw on YT and tried just for the hell of it.
It worked great! Like really great. Wanted to share as I was surprised. Also wonder if FP fans were already aware of this.
9 minute steep sounds really really long. My favorite cup I’ve made was like 3.5 minute steep on a coarse grind.
Fair, but in this method you’re removing much of the grounds with a spoon after 4mins.
I actually did 4min plus another 7. I dunno, I liked it noticeably a lot, but it’s definitely more of a pain.
My French press method is to forget that I’ve made coffee and then come back to it ~20 minutes later.
I didn’t look, but is it Hoffmann? If it is then yes I’m aware and yes it’s by far the best method I’ve tried, personally.
Yup this is his FP method video. It’s definitely helped me improve my French press process
