    I think people mistaken passion for pretension too easily. It's taking crafts seriously that continues our understanding of everything around us. Without passion we would still be in the middle ages. I sensed no pretension here. I saw a humble man taking his job seriously. Thank you for sharing your art with us.
    I have a question for the channel or anyone that can answer it: if I leave the water on the grounds for longer than the suggested time will this extract more flavor/caffeine or will this have a side effect that I don't see? Thank you.

    • @davidbergin6184
      @davidbergin6184 10 лет назад +7

      It might extract favors you wouldn't like, such as bitterness. good luck!

    • @sagellivokin
      @sagellivokin 10 лет назад +4

      David Bergin I talked to a friend today about it and found that it becomes bitter and increases the caffeine. That makes sense.

    This is beautiful. I have just begun my journey into actually understanding the full depth and variety of ways to enjoy coffee. I used to be a Keurig guy until I realized it takes all of 5 more minutes to just prepare coffee in a much better way.

  • @informedconsent3560
    @informedconsent3560 5 лет назад +3

    I had been slowly poisoning myself with BPA and other plastics from my Keurig for the past 2 or 3 years. Watched your video and got inspired and decided to make the switch to organic coffee beans, a grinder and a French press. What a difference! The coffee tastes amazing and I feel energized and not jittery, and it really doesn't take that much extra time. Never going back to the Keurig.

    • @oceanlbi
      @oceanlbi 2 года назад

      I wish they would do away with the keurig. it's a huge contraption on the counter and the plastic isn't good for people or the environment and besides that it's expensive. It should be done away with. so many better ways to make coffee.

    it is quite fascinating how people of today value their time in terms of, for example, preparing beverages, when, to be honest, most of the people waste their time on facebook, youtube, tv and so on, wasting hours a week. id rather spend 10 minutes preparing great coffee than spend 1 minute preparing shitty coffee. same principle goes for everything in life. relationships, work, sport et cetera. people who are patient are way more happier in life. just wake up 10 minutes earlier.

    French press is my everyday use for coffee, but i started changing the usual method (Your video) by doing it kinda half turkish style : heating the water with the coffee inside and stop just before a boiling point. Then 1mn sit, and press. The flavour is fuller than the traditionnal french press only without giving a too strong "turkish" taste. Give it a go some day ;) Cheers !

    • @theeclecticbanjo

    • @anthonymitchell8736
      @anthonymitchell8736 7 лет назад +2

      Aw man, this is much better, the water directly interacts with the grounds no flavor lost in the paper filters, or the metal filters some use. You get all the robust flavor of the coffee.

    • @michaeljara8552
      @michaeljara8552 7 лет назад +1

      stickersdogcat42 Oxidation is always the big difference. Pre-ground anything, coffee, spices, black pepper, loses flavor and intensity due to oxidation. When whole, coffee beans are protected by their husk, once the inner parts are exposed to air, the flavor and aroma begin to deteriorate. Pre-grinding is very convenient, but you lose a lot of the flavor

  • @roo7227
    @roo7227 10 лет назад +6

    I go by grams to (6 ounce) cup ratio, which seems to work for me.. It works out very similarly, considering I have a 32 oz carafe (which yields about 30 oz of coffee), and I use 55 grams, or 11 grams per 6 oz cup..
    With a darker roast, I use 50 grams, or 10g's per 6 oz cup, because darker beans are denser.. Everybody likes their cup a little different, so use these guidelines to start, and adjust as you go..
    Pretty soon, you'll be having just as much fun brewing your coffee, as drinking it, and your friends will love it, too..

  • @Tinker13ee
    @Tinker13ee 7 лет назад +3

    This video gave me exactly what I was looking for, which is the water to grounds ratio, 2g coffee:1oz water. So thank you!
    My only other question is: how does this compare to a coffee maker? From what I've seen it would seem that you need a lot less grounds for the amount of water you're using. Is the Press method less effective at extracting flavour?
    Excuse my brewing ignorance, I've only ever brewed using a French Press (I live in a 2 person house and I am the only one who drinks coffee so we have no coffee maker) and when I do drink "machined" coffee it's at a friends' or parents' house and I didn't have to make it :p

  • @CherylRichmond
    @CherylRichmond 9 лет назад +2

    Excellent instructional video! And to all the haters, you're missing out on a much better cup of coffee if you dismiss this as pretentious.
    Me, I use a 32oz Frieling stainless double walled French press (but only brew about 24 oz at a time, stays nice and hot that way). I also use a 4oz water to 1 scoop of coffee beans (*COURSE* grind!) ratio, as well as grind my beans fresh each time (Rancilio burr grinder), which gives me a nice strong brew. And voila, I get a perfect cup of coffee every time. Cheers!

    At the grocery store, how coarse of a grind should I do? They have pictures on the grinder at our store, but there’s no “picture” of a French press. I went FULL coarse and followed the instructions that came with the press. I waited the four minutes and plunged. The taste was... well, slightly coffee flavour.

    I notice you don't preheat the press - perhaps the 'great water' is too expensive to waste. I agree, but you can just swirl a bit around the glass to warm it up. Good alkaline bottled water is what I use (Evian for example)

  • @opadennis
    @opadennis 9 лет назад +2

    One general comment for the people making comments - what is a scoop? I have three "coffee scoops" in my kitchen. They all measure a different amount of coffee. If I use 2 grams/oz of water - I can measure that if I have a scale and be reasonably accurate. If I say one level tablespoon per cup, I can still be fairly accurate but if I use the term scoop? I have no idea how much coffee I'm using.

    It's a no brainer. I learnt to use this method when I was 5 years old.

      Amanda J. Usey just below boiling. If you don't have a thermometer, just bring it to a boil and then turn off the heat and let sit for 20-30 seconds.

      Amanda J. Usey I've heard between 195 & 205 degrees F. Make mine at 203 or 204.

      200 on the dot, if you go outside of 197 to 203 you can seriously taste the difference. over 203 and your coffee will taste burnt AF.

    Okay, à legit question here... Why not stir?

  • @1358skate

    I find that pushing the filter all the way down to the bottom o be ineffective. It stirs up all the grinds again in the french press.

    For the simple folk at home without a scale and who don’t speak in grams... tablespoon to cup of water ratio??

    60 grams of coffee is 2 ounces. does that look like only 2 ounces of coffee? not to me. i wonder if he stats are correct.
    never heard of a 30 oz pot. i've seen a single serving/17 oz before. maybe that is what he meant?

    Be Careful to empty the filtered coffee as soon as you finish, otherwise you could end up with overextracted coffee
