The 4 most common mistakes when making coffee in a French Press and how to avoid them
1. Too finely ground coffee powder
You should always use medium or coarsely ground coffee beans when using your French Press. Why? Using fine powder means that those minutes will be too long, which will make the
coffee very bitter. It's pretty simple: The finer the powder the more extraction will occur
2. Grinding coffee in advance
Ground coffee loses its flavour quickly. Be aware and don't grind too much coffee/espresso at one time. The fresher the powder, the better. It's pretty easy to do this with a hand mill. just like the
one you can find in our catalogue.
3. Not fully filling the French Press
A French Press should always be filled completely. Otherwise coffee powder particles might end up in your coffee, which will definitely ruin your coffee.
4. Making coffee with boiling water
Boiling water burns the coffee. Water that is too hot will hence destroy important flavours, which will give the coffee a bitter taste. After boiling the water, you should give it a couple of minutes to
cool. If the water is too cool, your coffee will taste sour
That's how you clean your French Press
While cleaning your French Press, it is especially important that you disassemble it completely after every preparation. Because between the parts of the stamp, coffee residues accumulate
that you would otherwise not see. These can become rancid over time and thus also affects hygiene.
