Brace yourself for great coffee
The french press (or "cafetiere" in the UK, and "plunger" in Australia) is considered by many to provide the quintessential coffee drinking experience.
Because the water is always in direct contact with the coffee grounds, essential oils and flavor compounds normally left behind in the paper filter remain in the coffee. After pushing down the stainless steel plunger/screen, you are left with an incredibly robust, remarkably flavorful, and richly aromatic cup of coffee.
The grind affects the flavor
We recommend using a courser grind setting for your beans so that the screen is able to remove the majority of coffee solids.
