Best French Presses 2024

If you like strong coffee but don't want to make a whole pot every time you want a Cup O' Joe, the small but versatile French Press coffee makers are right up your alley. French Press coffee makers come in a variety of styles and materials ranging from glass to stoneware, to stainless steel, but the operation of the unit is basically the same for all models. (If you choose a glass unit, make sure you buy 'heatproof' glass). 

 

HOW TO MAKE FRENCH PRESS COFFEE

The process is fairly simple. First you take hot top water and pour it into the container. Let it sit for 15 seconds and then pour it out. This preheats the container to assist your boiled water to stay hot when it is poured in to make the coffee.

 

Next, measure your water and coarsely ground coffee using a ratio of two tablespoons of ground coffee to every 8 ounces of water. This is a good starting point for a robust cup of coffee and can be easily adjusted.

 

Next, boil the water, then pour into the carafe / container. Pour in the coffee grounds and stir with a swizzle stick or wooden stirrer for about 20 seconds. Place the cover of the French Press unit onto the container and let steep for about four minutes.

 

The final step is important. Use the plunger that sticks up through the cover and slowly press it all the way down until the grounds are all underneath the plunger and the coffee is all above it. Then simply pour from the carafe and enjoy!

 

Regardless of the blend or pure estate coffee you use, be sure to grind the beans to a coarse grind. If the grind is too fine some of the grains will bypass the plunger and get into your finished coffee.
