French Press Coffee

It may seem odd to some people that I would write a recipe for French Press Coffee. We learned to drink great coffee in Europe. I started when I was 20 years old. Our standard of comparison has always been French Coffee. I know it's all relative and based on personal taste but I decided to do this for our own reference. The issue with French Press recipes is that they're written in Milliliters. and Grams. I've broken it down to Cups and Tablespoons to simplify it for the American Market.
French Press makes a great cup of coffee. The French Press Coffee Makers come in various sizes ranging from 2 Cups to 8 Cups.

We have a Glass 4 C  Classic Coffee Press and a Stainless Steel Press.

And also have individual Makers from Starbucks that we travel with. 

4 C  Coffee Maker

Here's how we make it:

4 C Water
8 TBS Coffee Grounds (Regular Grind, not a Fine Grind) (a Good 1/2 C of Grounds)

Fill the Press with Boiling Water.

Top it off with Coffee Grounds.

Gentle put the top on.

Allow it to sit for 4 minutes.

Gently Push the Top down.

Enjoy!
Peace in the Kitchen!
