Very informative. Right now I’m a “if I have time keurig and out the door coffee drinker. I’m looking to learn how to use a French press to regiment some down time. Mainly to take time to enjoy it on the weekends before everyone wakes up.
tried it, liked it. Got a fuller, richer, balanced cup. Thanks!! I went 3min, transferred to a secondary vessel to get rid of more slurry, waited 5 extra min before I transferred to my drinking cup. next, I'll go finer on the grind and 2 min? maybe.
Thank you for the video, I see the zero water filter, but what is the sachet you were talking about, you didn’t really touch on the brand or where you can get that. Great video I learned a few things. 🙏🏽
Amazing videos. New viewer. I use my Press for loose leaf tae as well. My Mum wants to try coffee but doesn't want high caffeine or like the sludge or bitter. I'm used to it. I'm trying combining the prese w/ the pour over in a Japanese porcelain dropper & paper. RE: I agree. Use what u drink. But try to avoid council pop out the mixer tap.
Love the channel. What do you guys recommend as a great espresso starter setup? I'm thinking breville bambino plus 1zpresso jmax to get my feet wet. Then I can upgrade the bambino down the line, and the grinder further down the line. Would that be a decent starting point?
First time using a French press this morning. I used a hand chopper opposed to a grinder so the beans are definitely on the course side. However the taste of the coffee was amazing. Going forward I would like to purchase a coffee bean grinder do you have any recommendations?
🤝🔥🔥🔥🔥☕ I recently got into French press again, and I'm also 22% French, according to DNA results (most of my life I didn't know I'm part French hehe). :3
Hang on, so the alternative to owning a timer is having to count out loud? Have these guys never heard of a clock? Even better, we all have timers on our phone. Not sure I need to buy a timer to clutter the kitchen. Even EVEN better, I just ask Alexa to count for me!
Now this, this is going to be my go to recipe from now on. Quick, simple and more importantly, a recipe dedicated for french press users. I don't want to throw any shade, but those long wait time recipes by James Hoffman, Gwilym Davies or any other renowned coffee experts, are recipes for pour-over users to tolerate the use of a french press. I mean, common sense would tell you to just use a pour-over then. Lol.
Have to try this as just got a new grinder which has a more consistent grind but can't get the taste I was used to. What is the ratio you are using for a 1 ltr press. Don't quite get the guys who are using a French Press but don't press, what's the point just use a pot and filter and give it a new name 😉
Oh you mean, Sieved Cupping method? Yeah pass, if I wanted less sediment in my cup I'd either get and aeropress, a pour over mesh filter or just use my damn V60. Like come on now, what's the point of a french press then? You can use a v60 or an aeropress for a quarter of the time of these long brewing methods for the french press and with a much better work flow. Don't let your bias towards hoffman get the better of actually trying out this rather simple method that still delivers a delicious tasting french press coffee. I often brew with both my French Press and my V60 depending on my mood, and as an avid FP user that actually likes the characteristics of FP coffee.....their technique blows every other techniques I've tried in the past in terms of taste and workflow. And again, if you want a cleaner cup of coffee, from a french press no less, that hoffman's and gwilym's method yield. Then there are seriously better alternatives with a better workflow and actually give you the cleanliness that you're looking for. Bottom line is, Hoffman's and Gwilym's method for french press isn't for people who likes french press, it's for people who prefer pour overs to try the technique to in order to tolerate the use of a French press by getting better clarity yet never coming close to what they're actually lookong for in a filter pour-over. Heck, their method doesn't even need a french press, it can be done with a fine mesh sieve/cheese cloth.....and a carafe/glass measuring cup, and you will get the same results. Hoffmam's and Gwilym's method is good if you don't have a any brewing equipment at all.
i don't understand why you would need to transfer the coffee from the french press into another teapot, why not straight from the french press into the cup? Also I noticed you didn't push the plunger all the way down, any particular reason?
If you keep the coffee in the french press, even though you pressed the plunger, the coffee is still in contact with water, which means it still extract.
If you're ready to pour as many cups as you've made, then you don't need another container. This is so the remaining cups don't over extract while you're drinking the first.
@@XDriixsXactually I don't think that is true because the plunger holds back the coffee until you pour it so how much extraction would occur while pouring
What did they do before to make coffee? Before filters. Before kettles! Ha! Ha! Can make a wicked cup of coffee on a camp fire and you can see the oils from the coffee! They did say in the past never use boiling water!
A myth that has already been busted. Check out james hoffman. He actually did an experiment on this. Once the water leaves the spout of the kettle it would have cooled off enough by the surrounding atmosphere that it would no longer be boiling once it hits the bed of coffee.b

Great video! I’ve been addicted to cold brew at home.
Pretty quick and easy once it’s brewed, also have hot sometimes
tried it, liked it. Got a fuller, richer, balanced cup. Thanks!!

Thanks for your time much appreciated
Great video guys! Thank you and can’t wait for your shops to be open again 🤞

Kinu M47 Classic with the pour-over burr
Great video keep it up 👍

Always interesting to find out more about one's roots. On a side note, the French Press was apparently invented by an Italian.
Hello, any idea how TWW compares to Barista Hustle DYI recipes?
Hi Max. Thanks for this.
Hang on, so the alternative to owning a timer is having to count out loud? Have these guys never heard of a clock? Even better, we all have timers on our phone. Not sure I need to buy a timer to clutter the kitchen. Even EVEN better, I just ask Alexa to count for me!
True plus my stove has timer that is easier than my phone timer

How do you pour coffee from a French press without a spout without getting grounds in the coffee? Thanks
Science 🤯
Have to try this as just got a new grinder which has a more consistent grind but can't get the taste I was used to. What is the ratio you are using for a 1 ltr press.

Not enjoying this method lately so much that I wrote my Espro press a goodbye letter. :)
Over 9 minutes and you haven’t even started making coffee...ffs man! I’ll go with the Hoffman technique.
Oh you mean, Sieved Cupping method? Yeah pass, if I wanted less sediment in my cup I'd either get and aeropress, a pour over mesh filter or just use my damn V60.

I think Hoffman is worse, he's endless bable I never understand him, I learned a lot from this video
So long, okay for a newcomer. Sorry dude, thought this was going to show some special technique, but it’s just the basic technique.
i don't understand why you would need to transfer the coffee from the french press into another teapot, why not straight from the french press into the cup? Also I noticed you didn't push the plunger all the way down, any particular reason?

Boiling water stops Boiling after you take it of the heat source and most kettles are turned off after water is boiled
love u
