This helped me make a badass cup of coffee today, since I lost the instructions to my French press. Thanks French Press Coffee!
Thank you for your instructions on how to use this. I got into a serious conversation with a random stranger at Walmart about how much we love coffee and this precious man surprised me by buying me this French press. And i just tried it and it's got to be the best coffee I've ever tasted!
I was doing everything except blooming the coffee for 30 seconds. I’ve just been adding my grinds and all the hot/boiling water to fill it up and letting it steep for 4 minutes. Still a far superior brew to Keurig with my method but will try your method in the morning. Thank you for this video!
Sorry to be offtopic but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid forgot the login password. I love any help you can give me.
@Bryson Tyson instablaster ;)
@Eddie Talon i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and Im in the hacking process now.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Eddie Talon it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much you really help me out !
@Bryson Tyson glad I could help xD
Norman Osborn has taught me how to make the right coffee.
Thank God for this video! I have been making and enjoying coffee all wrong for nearly fifty years! As did my mother, and grandmother! How did I even live this long without the wisdom of hipsters and loads of expensive gear?
A french press isnt expensive, grandma.
@@heathsavage4852 pressing coffee like this includes a lot of cholesterol
This is the best coffee for me, because I can do it before I've had my coffee. First thing in the morning, half awake, I can still make a damned good cup of coffee.
Gave the coffee-to-water ratio in Grams, and Fluid Ounces.
This was a wonderful video, thank you! I always fill my press near the top (I usually leave 1/2 inch). I never get grounds but I do get extremely fine coffee at the last cup (which I actually enjoy). I also like 1/2 a level cup of ground dark roast in my 34 oz Chambord (equal to 2 Tbsp per 8 oz water). I should try a medium grind instead of medium-fine and see how it goes.
I wish I would have seen this perfect brewing video before because I just had my first good cup of coffee out of my French press. Letting the ground coffee bloom first was key👍🏻
I agree, I never did that before and it really makes a difference
Finally! I made the best french press coffe I've ever had this morning. Thank you!!!
Thank you! First time using a french press and did not know how. : /
2:25: most of the coffee floats above the water. that means the water extracted a very few of all the grounds. as we will plunge down, we will make the water pass through this coffee bed but most likely there will be a channel so most of the coffee won't be extracted at the end. So tastewise it'll be a sour, bad coffee. I guess this is about thermal mass. A pre-heated, high heat-resistent french press will maintain higher degrees for longer so the water will take out much more solubles. and for me longer it brews, better it tastes, i go for 15 minutes if i'm not busy. just give it a try. but i dont use a french press, but a porcelain tea brewer. it keeps the heat so efficiently, most french presses are weak at this point.
Thank for the video I got my first French press so I'm new to this
Awesome. Thank you!
Dude, your technique is simply awesome. Nowadays, some have invented a technique that doesn't even bother pressing at all. Cheers
This came in a good pinch after my Keurig bit the dust. I got just the right cup I needed this morning. Thank you
This is sp helpful. I'll be using mine for the first time ever today! I'm excited!! ☕
Awesome. Thank you!
I'm from Taiwan and now I live in Mars, I like this product, it makes me enjoy coffee in every Mars morning
This is my first ever coffee maker, my dear mom suggested it for me. This was a Better
Video then the one Bodlum made,
Good job and well presented
James Hoffman has a good recipe for French press. I would recommend that over this.
Indeed a different approach without any pressing. Worth a try, thanks for the advice.
Just got a French Press. Learned a lot from watching your videos. Thank you 😀😄
that quote at the end was hilarious
Very helpful thank you!!
I’m 34 and making my first cup of coffee this way 😁
Good choice... what took ya so long?
I'm 104 and I think I'll try this.
@@charliebuckley6572 just never was drawn to coffee ☕️
@@FeonaLeeJones never too late to enjoy coffee :D
I just turned 44 and using the French press for the first time LOL
First time ever ever using this machine i can added to my bucket list..
This is so helpful. Muchas gracias 🌷
Thank you! Haven’t used mine in a bit and needed a refresher course! Perfect video!
Just bought mine brand new at thrift store. It’s on my coffee station. It’s beautiful 🤩 eventually will use it 👍
Thanks for giving coffee weight! I’ve gotten used to measuring out my coffee by weight for the drip coffee maker and needed to know how much for my French press - which I haven’t used in ages, but I am hoping to change that,..
Love the way you washed the stirrer with the water. It shows you are efficient, thoughtful, intelligent.
French press is awesome. You never go back to k-cups or machine brew.
I've never saw this way to make coffe, I'm as a brazillian usually do this job using a filter, interesting man! Bona peti
Bom petisco, bon appétit 😋
For those of us who don't live at sea level - Water boils at 212 degrees F at sea level but boils at a lower temperature as you go up in elevation - it boils at about 2 degrees less for every 1000 ft in altitude. So at 6000 ft, like where I live, water boils at about 200 degrees F - just right for French Press coffee.
The Bodum French Press instructions to use hot (not boiling water) is confusing. Thanks for the clarification.
Delicious coffee always makes my morning happy ☕😊
Helpful and excellent
Glad to hear that
I just bought a French press just like that one and I thought the stem on my filter plunger was not long enough but I see from the video the filter only reaches down to about an inch from the bottom. Good to know!
I just had my 1.5 ltr Bodum press delivered today. I wanted to try it out so just put in enough for one coffee but it was really weak. Can you do just one coffee in this size of a press?
I'll try it with the bustello thanks 😊
It would be helpful to keep the units similar: tablespoons and ounces / grams and milliliters (or grams since they are the same for water). The quote is right on the money. "Decaf = Why Bother"
Like Doing crack without the side effects.
Basically 1part coffee to 16 parts water. Then convert this to grams. ie: 40 grams of coffee to 640 grams of water!
he said 7g coffee for 4oz water. guessing it's a US volume ounce, 4floz is ~29.6*4 = 118.4 mL. Or about 15g (14.8g) per cup (250mL) water. Water temp: 200F is 93.3C
@@jean-sebastienlegare1718 I am confused, 7g of coffee is 4.12 teaspoons. 4 fl oz. is 29.6 ???, 29.6 what? Sorry I was never good at math!
Thank you. But what cup/volume French press size are you using? Is this the 350ml/3cup or a different size?
Just got mine today, my keurig died. 😆 but this way cool, Colombian Dunkin was so good 👍 awesome video
Does it matter how the coffee bean is gran for this style of French press, can I just use the coffee already gran from the bag I already bought and ready to use and Ty
i like that dolar framed on the wall
Thank You very easy instructions Love perfect coffee
Very good video. Is it helpful to also heat the French Press before adding the grounds? I make a French Press almost everyday.
Some of use can't have caffeine due to health issues so we drink decaf. It gives you the same taste and enjoyment. Thanks
Some brands make outstanding decaffeinated, Meo, Malongo for instance.
Tablespoon? Please could you qualify that as your measuring spoon looked way under.
Was it not worth tasting the coffee when brewed? Even for visual effect? Like a music tuition vid where there’s no music played. (useful tip on pre-wetting though)
HOLY SHOOT YOU’RE STILL ALIVE! WHAT HAPPENED TO AROMA CUP? I WAS SO WORRIED!
How could you not talk about the ground size? It's the most important part before making any coffee.
What is the appropriate size?
It’s an electric coffee grinder with a pre setting. The ground size is predetermined based on that setting. That’s how. Chill out
He literally said grind the coffee on french press mode 😂😂
It says "always use ground coarse coffee" on the side of the percolator
@raulduke1528 nobody talking about coffee made like this has a lot of cholesterol
Brew 4minutes, 5minutes or “whatever it takes!” Some days, I need 7minutes! 🤣
If you just have a coffee grinder (no settings) what grounds are 'coarse' enough'?
Sea saltish coarse. Although half the fun with the French Press is experimenting with grind size and time to find something that suits just your taste buds. I generally grind a bit finer than sea salt to get more flavour out, I prefer it strong. Coarser tastes too weak for my taste but brings out more of the fruitier notes. Have fun! Cheers!
Thank you! Coffee tastes great and the YETI tumblers keep it hot. But, they are very hard to keep clean (I use polident, and dishwashing soap and the dishwasher) and I think add a metallic taste. What do you recommend?
It takes time but damn it's good
Hey,
Great video!
Will share with wife- she loves french press coffee...too much even...hah
Make more video soon
Austin
Any ideas or tricks to get the grounds out of the press easily?
Thank you Flop from the office
Are these instructions okay for a Brazil Bodum French Press? Thank you.
Great video! What size coffee beans or what grind should I use?
I love that black carafe . Where did you get it from ??
Best part was the end of the video 😜😛
what's her name ?
Thanks
Great info, I hadn't been doing that 30-second bloom part. It's no fun getting the grounds out afterwards. The debate in our home is if it's ok to rinse the grounds down the kitchen sink ("it cleans the pipes"..."yeah but what about the environment?") or throw away in the trash. What are other viewers doing? One interesting use is to take a small scoop of grounds and mix with liquid soap for a satisfying hand scrub. Rinses clean and no smell.
I throw my grinds in the trash..
Composting them is an option…
Many acid loving plants, rhododendron and azaleas love coffee.
OK wow if this is your only worry then eat the grounds save the world from those grounds and also eat all the food crap in the trash to save the environment
freak 😂 @@wildbill7081
I’ve recently bought the Bodum French coffee press & the instructions say to use coarse coffee. What is this exactly? Thank you🙏
I cannot wait to fix my first cup of coffee in my Bodum French press
Hooray! Fill to around 1/3rd, stir/agitate thoroughly, LEAVE TO BLOOM before topping up and STIRRING AGAIN thoroughly. Leave to stand for a few minutes, allowing all the grounds to infuse and drop to the bottom of the beaker. Maybe gently agitate the crema (as he does on the video) to release any grounds trapped in there. Once you’ve done that, using the plunger just clears any remaining grounds. There’s no need to be pedantic about measurements and timing; everybody’s taste is different. The right way to do it is the way you like it. And I’m not convinced about the ‘don’t use boiling water‘ theory. Nevertheless, I do put a dash of cold into the kettle before pouring. And no, the kettle isn’t a long spouty thing. There’s more, but I have to get a life.
Hi do you pour the coffee with French down ?
How long does the coffee last after ground. ?
How can I purchase the black flower pot!?
Is that girl at the end flirting with me?
Well said
You are mistaken sir. I am convinced that she and I have a special relationship.
@@margin606 shes mine i said stay away damnit!!!😂
what's her name ?
She flirting with anyone who has a Credit Card and is willing to buy what she's Peddling.
What do you think about other professionals techniques for french press where they actually don't completely push the plunger all the way down to not kick back sedement of coffe back up into the brewed coffee?
Why didn't you warm the press first as per their instructions?
Hey man, anyone ever said you look like Mikey Day from SNL?
now that you've said it, I can't unsee it
Where can you buy that black goose neck kettle and for how much? (Never mind, I found it at West Elm and Fellow for $149. and at Williams-Sonoma for $79.95... way too much for what it is !)
Can you make cold brew with this?
Just ordered this small Bodum 3cup French press and the official instructions say to brew for a minimum of 4minutes not maximum. Also the lid by the spout has a closed side to keep heat in for brewing which he didn’t use. After brew time you turn the lid to expose the grill side at the spout for pouring.
Can you translate the grams of coffee per ounces of water you mentioned into the actual measuring tool that you used (which was in tablespoons)? I don't know how the 7 grams equates to the three tablespoons you suggest - per I am supposing a normal sized french press? I didn't hear you mention how much water the french press you used holds. Mine holds a little less than 32 oz below the silver band. I added 3 tablespoons of coffee and filled it to an inch or so below the band and ended up with coffee flavored water. I understand that the grind will affect the weight of the coffee in a single tablespoon somewhat but something doesn't seem right here. Can you translate to X tablespoons per X ounces of water rather than that math you gave after you told us the measures? Thank you.
I make coffee for myself only, and the 12 oz. may be cutting it a bit close. Can I brew less than a full pot in a 17 oz. press?
Obviously.
Is the mokka pot better that this?
Hey it's the aromacup guy!
That's me!
@@brianbotkiller holy shit it is! *me subs to your channel and preps his nespresso machine
This is the way
I bought one because I didn't like cleaning my cheesecloth everytime . That's what I was using to strain my coffee. With the Bodum so much liquid stays in the container after brewing, I still have to strain the remainder with cheese cloth. Arghh, not much help. Any suggestions?
can you use coffee that already grind
I used grounded starbucks coffee and it turned out really good! It's not recommended bc it's not fresh, but it tasted really good and it's easy.
Wats yr french press size used?
Can I make tea in it too?
Question how do I avoid getting grounds in my cup of coffee after brewing? I always feel like I get grounds by accident by making a cup wrong
2 month late answer but i grind the coffee at a larger consistency so it doesnt get through as easily
You need to give it at least 7 minutes before adding plunger, an dont plunge it just use as strainer. Plunging it stirs up sludge an gets into cup.
Mixing metric with imperal. Mad recipe.
Nice jerusalem cookbook (I have it as well)
So you added 3 tablespoons of coffee, you basically added around 24oz of water?
Can you add hot watet again to those same grounds ?
no
I'm gonna go ahead and ask you guys to make more videos with the girl at the end.
Lmao
🤣🤣🤣
Go on I'll wait.......
what's her name ?
I thought blooming was for dripping? Help. Still new at brewing
are u selling product or giving information? Is this a mini infomerical?
Yeaaaahhh man
Ha jokes on her because I got the quote before subscribing.
Where do I get a t-shirt like yours?
please give ratio of coffee to water in consistent units ie volume or weight and stick with metric or imperial. what is right grind for French press - my coffee shop doesn't do "french Press" grind???
All the common sense questions this useless video did not address. He was too busy getting the perfect muss look in his hair to bother.
Yeah but now I got a dirty strainer. How do I clean it?
I've done this several times, and from time to time the coffee does not float, but it sinks all the way to the bottom. I really don't know what's the reason behind that. Could it be water temperature?
Could be the freshness of the beans? Really fresh coffee has a high CO2 content that causes the grounds to float, could also be due to the coarseness of the grind.
What happens if the grounds are too fine?
What is the “French Press” setting ?
Great video. How do you guys stand on the scooping vs. not scooping the grinds after the brew before you push the plunger down? I have noticed that it does reduce the amount of nasty residuals in the cup, but it also appears to alter the flavor - and not always in nice ways.
If you are using the right size coffee grounds you shouldn't really have almost any residual stuff in the cup
@@marcloudon1666 If they were too fine, the grinds wouldn't float anyway.
If you can recommend a prefect grinder under $3000, please let us all know.
