Coffee and the Press


Being an amateur coffee connoisseur, I'm upset that it took me so long to jump on the french press wagon. Most coffee snobs will agree that it's the only way to drink coffee. I received one for christmas and i've been using it every day since. It's amazing that something so easy could taste so delicious. What makes this technique different from traditional brewing is the thick froth you get as a result of the pressure pushing the grinds away from the water. Because this froth is made directly from the coffee, it has an entirely different texture and flavor than the froth that comes from steamed milk. All you do is pour hot water over ground coffee and press!
