French Press Coffee

Make room for the French press coffee pot as this form of brewing a cup of Joe has taken the world by storm! Although French pressed coffeemakers are nothing new, the movement, globally, to save money and still have that fantastic fresh-brewed coffee taste had made a large resurgence back into the kitchens and hiking trails of the world. This comes from a taste response and a financial concern that normally only came from an expensive retailer. That same great taste sensation can now be had in the comfort of one’s home. This is why a French coffee pot makes perfect sense as well as economical sense! Enough with the delving into the aromatic flavors of a French coffee, let’s take a stroll down memory lane and see where this tasteful-movement originated from.

European Pleasure

The French press has been around for centuries. Although the debate rages on in regards to the origin of the French coffee apparatus, one thing is for certain, the French had something to do with it. This is obvious with the name yet many individuals will still argue the point that it was the Italians who first manufactured and distributed French coffee! It is the belief of many including a certain Florida-based writer that will remain nameless, that the French coffee movement started in France and is now a worldwide epidemic! Thankfully.

Brewing Style Holds the Key to Success

A French press coffee maker is actually a very simple device and one that is far simpler than even the standard brewed coffee that sits in most kitchens today. The reason why French press is much easier to create can be found in the way the coffee is brewed. The French method requires a coarser ground than does a regular more standard drip-brew coffee filter. The finer grounds would seep through the press filter and totally infiltrate the coffee. This is why a thicker, coarser coffee ground is necessary for the brewing of a French pressed coffee.

Listed below is a short and descriptive list in which a great cup of French coffee can be procured.

Sweet and Delicious Travelling Companion

It is important to remember a few finer points about a French press coffee brew. The first is that ½ liter of French coffee is considered unfit for human consumption after 20 minutes of sitting. This leads to the next obvious factor and that is the point that French coffee is best enjoyed i after being pressed. One of the great benefits of a French press apparatus is it can be taken virtually anywhere the individual goes! Try that with a standard drip-brew coffeemaker and a visit to the chiropractor will be the next stop in the journey. One of the greatest ways to enjoy a nice steaming cup of French press coffee is to add a little sugar; a little whipped cream and sit back and enjoy!

Okay..I have a coffee maker at home. I also have coffee grounds, french vanilla(powder), and Irish creme. Can someone please give me a simple french vanilla coffee recipe for 1 person. Including the amount of each product And is there anything I should add like milk and sugar.

Thanks everyone!

I have a few French press coffee makers. I have a terrible habit of breaking the brittle glass beakers that they come with. Is there anywhere to buy just the beaker? It doesn't even have to be specifically for a coffee maker, as long as the plunger fits in it.

Thanks
