You know that Krupps or Mr. Coffee machine sitting on your kitchen counter? It’s lame. It looks like it was designed in 1972 (it was) and it only reveals a portion of you coffee’s potential.
Enter the Bodum French Press - Your design conscious upgrade to better tasting coffee.
The french press requires coarsly ground beans, so have your local bean shop use their burr grinder. If you use a blade grinder you will get un uneven grind and some of the beans will get into your coffee when you press. Buying in small weekly increments will ensure the beans are fresh. Pour hot water over the ground beans, stir with a plastic spoon, let them soak for 4-5 minutes, press slowly, and enjoy you new favorite beverage..behind Tecate beer with salt and lime juice of course.
