How to Use a Coffee Press | Yummy Ph

- Brewing coffee in a coffee press requires more than just saturating the beans in hot water.
Make sure the beans are coarsely-ground (finer grinds will give you bitter coffee) and you use water that is boiled and cooled for 30 seconds before filling the carafe of the coffee press.

Wife: My mother got a coffee press for Christmas but she doesn't want it. She asked if you want it?
Me: Yeh that would be great!
Wife: You know how to use one then?
Me: ofc I do *laughs*.. (quickly ends up here after Google search)
Short video, very helpful by being straight to the point. Love such videos. I'm gonna make my coffee right now before the water gets cold and I love this quick demo
Hi! Yay! Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. :)
Love you straight to the point👍
how could he possibly diverge from the point
I figured how to use my French press and I just made me and my wife some black coffee using Dunkin donuts ground coffee came out so freakin good no more coffee makers
Previous owners left this behind. I was trying to figure out and would’ve put the grounds in the top part. What a mess that would’ve made. 😂
Thank you so much!!
Hi! Yay! Glad this was helpful. Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. :)
You need to stir it so the top grounds can be extracted
Literally just made the best cup of coffee. My neighbor just moved and gifted me hers😊 I like that I can adjust how dark I want it. To me this is easier than using a coffee machine because I can never get it right with those things🙄
Thank you!!!

I also put the coffee on the filter instead of the bottom of glass jar very helpful no directions with mine
Hello! Interesting. :) Thanks for watching our videos. :)
Thanks for uploading this, I don’t drink coffee but have a French press so I’m currently using it to make oat milk. Lol 👍🏻
Hi! Cool! Sounds like this little gadget is more versatile than originally intended. :) Thanks for watching our videos. :)
whoa! how is that going for you? is it a great way to make oat milk? Cuz if that is the case, then I might just get one of these :D
tinkerbell716 no! It didn’t work! Lol the oatmeal’s flakes were way too fat and kept clogging it up, would need to blend the oatmeal first but I don’t have a blender so booooo but yeah don’t try it with just regular oats lol I made a huge mess
My goood 😂😂 I was putting the coffe on the filter i mean the press thing. This was useful thanks 😂
Hi! Haha! ^_^ Glad to know this helped you! Thanks for watching our videos. :)

Same thinking. Ha ha...thanks for rhe tutorial.
Thanks 🎉
Awsm ty for making it simple
Should have watched the tutorial. I first put the coffee, then the pusher, then the water. Now I'm drinking shitty coffee -.-
Hi! Oh no! :( But.... There's always tomorrow morning! ^_^ Good luck! Thanks for watching our videos. :)
This made my day 😂
Been brewing my coffee via french press for a month now and have watched coffee tutorials. One possible reason why your coffee tasted bad was how you prepared the coffee. Ideally, one should rinse the carafe (glass container) with hot water to preheat it. Then place on the grounds. Next, pre-wet the grounds until it's wet then wait for 30 seconds aka the blooming phase. Blooming is important as it released CO2 gasses which contributes a lot to the sour taste of the coffee. Finally, add water to its appropriate coffee-water ratio. I found that 1:16 ratio suits my taste but it all depends on your preference. Place the lid for 4 minutes (light-medium roast) or 3 minutes (dark roast) without pushing the plunger down. Once the timer is up, push the plunger then pour the coffee into your cup. Hope this helps.
@@tuytuyexplores thanks
Thanks for making a simple video lol
I hated brewed coffee before. But when I tasted it last week I realized it tastes way better than coffee with sugar and creamer! 😍
Hi! Yey! Thanks for watching our video. :)
SHORT AND SWEET!
Hi! We hope this helped you learn how to use your coffee press. Thanks for watching our videos. Visit us again soon! 😊
I bought one today. The filter part is scraping the sides of the glass making it a little difficult to press down slowly. Is that normal?
Hello! Yes, it should be pressed against the sides of the carafe so the grounds are captured by the filter. It shouldn't be too hard to press down but just enough to do the job effectively. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching our videos. Visit us again soon! 😊
Hi! What brand/model is your French press? Could you please leave a link? Thank you!😊
thanks that was perfect!!!!
Hello! Thank you for watching our videos. :)
Thank u this was very helpful ☺
Hello! Yay! We're glad to hear this. Thanks, too, for watching our videos. 😊
Ok. I have one of these. No instructions. I didn't even know what it was called or what it was used for. I'm rather lucky I found this video.
Hi! So glad you were able to find this video to be useful. Enjoy your coffee press! Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. 🥰
Do you have to use course ground or does regular ground coffee work also?
Hi! For this gadget, it's best to use coarsely ground because the filter is not very fine. If you use finely ground coffee, let the coffee settle to the bottom of the press. Don't pour the coffee ground sludge at the bottom into your mug. :) Thanks for watching our videos. :)
Hi. My friend borrowed my french press and when she returned it i was surprise to notice that the filter or mesh plate is no longer level. Like when plunge it it goes slanting. I fear it won't filter properly. Does it affect the functionality of the french press. Thanks in advance for your reply.
Hello! The mesh should still be able to strain out the grounds even if tilted we assume. One of the drawbacks of a coffee press like this is that the you don't normally completely empty it out. There is still some coffee liquid which contain the grounds in the bottom of the pitcher. So to troubleshoot and not buy another one, you can always rotate the filter so the coffee always drain through the properly level part. Hope that helps! Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. 😊
Lmaoooo i put the coffee grounds on top of the filter and wondered what the point of this was if the ground were gonna end up in my cup anyways🤦🏽♀️ i feel dumb. Thanks for this video!!!
Hi! Oh hahaha!! Glad to know this video helped you make better coffee from now on. Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. 🥰
I am planning to get one of this for when I am too lazy to use my Cuban expresso machine
Hi! Hope you enjoy using your press when you get it. Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. 😊
Can i re use the coffee? I mean do i need to pour a hot water ?
Hi! If you reuse the coffee grounds, it won't taste as strong as with freshly ground coffee. Yes, to pouring in hot water. If you want to make a cold brew, you can pour that in but you'll need to let it soak and extract at least overnight for best results. Good luck! Thanks for watching our videos and visiting our channel. 😊
Got one of these for Christmas. What’s the advantage of using this over regular drip coffee?
Hi! This takes more time and is of course manual to use. This results in coffee that is darker, richer in flavor with a grittiness from the coffee grounds that you might get if the mesh isn't fine enough. Try it and find out which coffee machine you prefer. 😊 Good luck! Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. 😊
Thanks lol
Can we add milk
Hi! You can add milk after making the coffee. Thanks for visiting our channel and watching our videos. 😊
Hi. Does this leave little coffee grinds at the bottom part of a mug?
Hi! Best to check your press since that will depend on your coffee press' mesh filter. If it's fine enough, it won't leave anything but the finest of grounds. However, it will nonetheless leave grounds in your cup unless you pass it through a super fine mesh or coffee filter. Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. :)
thanks for showing this old momma how to use one, I was gifted one and thought wtf is this and why does it say coffee on it lol
Hi! Nice! Enjoy your awesome coffee! Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. :)
are coffee press lids supposed to be loose ?
Hi! It doesn't have to be air tight so it can be. It just needs to fit so you can pour the coffee once you've done the press. Hope that helps! Thanks for visiting our page and watching our videos. 😊
finally one that isn't 30 mins long
Hi! ^_^ Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. :)
WOW! I so would've used this the wrong way! 😆
Hi! Oh! Glad to have helped you use it properly so you can have delicious coffee every morning. Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. 😊
Does this work with grated crayons? Asking for a Marine friend.
How is that?, no wire, no need electric power?
Hi! Yes, this is a manual coffee press. Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. :)
Hey what kind of coffee can I use? Is it the bean or ground or what. Tq
Hello! For the coffee press, use ground coffee beans. :) Good luck! Thanks for watching our videos. :)
You have to pour hot water to the french press first to prime it/heat the glass. The usual french press bought from malls do not really have nice glass and breaks due to the sudden temp spike. Broke 2 gifted french press before I learned to do this. Sigh
HI! Thanks for the tips. Tempered glass is best for these gadgets. Thanks, too, for visiting and watching our videos. :)
Is it still hot after 4 minutes?
Hi! Yes, it should. Not piping hot but still hot. Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. :)
we live in a world where you will never feel like an idiot because 200,000 other people needed to double check they were using a tool correctly
HI! Thanks for watching our videos. :)
If I leave it for 4 minutes, wouldn't it get cold?
Hi! Not cold, just cooler, but it should still be hot. It's around the same time as you would need to steep tea bags, which is around three minutes, so no. If you however want it piping hot after steeping, you can always heat it up again. Try it with a timer and see for yourself. Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. :)
Awesome soundtrack! Can I get the name of that please
Which french press ?
Hi! This gadget is a French press aka coffee press. Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. :)
Will be hot ? Because we left it for a while
Hi! It steeps at around 3 minutes, depending on how much you used. It will not hold the heat. Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. :)
This video is for " initiative" lol this is great tho!
Hi! For beginners, definitely. :) Thanks for watching our videos. :)
Gotta rewind it cause I'm looking at the pot and the words are flying by. Sorry about the cussing, I just thought it was too fast and really bad music. How about some slow music and take your time instead of rushing.
Hello! All good! This is actually an old video and we like to think we have grown over the years to take note of preferences of our viewers like you. Thanks for visiting and watching our videos! 😊
Don't go all the way down?
Hello! Not completely since it makes room for the grounds in the bottom of the pitcher. it also doesn't need to in any case. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching our videos. 😊
wahahaha baliktad ko gnagawa ganito pala tama pucha
Hi! Oh hahaha! Glad to know you now know how to use your coffee press. Enjoy your coffee! Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. 😊
L
I hope this is a serious tutorial lol. You forgot to mention in the video that it is important to preheat the carafe, pre-wet the grounds but not immersing them completely, and let it bloom for 30 seconds for a tastier coffee. It's not also mentioned in this video that there is a difference with the brewing time if you are gonna use light & medium roast with a dark roast. A dark roast will extract quicker so if you will apply the same amount of brewing time with a lighter-medium roast, the coffee will end up with a burnt taste.
Hello! Yes, it is a serious tutorial but this is how to use a coffee press aka French press, not how to make coffee. :) That of course is totally up to you regarding your preferences. Thanks for the tips and thanks, too, for watching our videos. :)
It's a how to use a coffee press not how to be a coffee snob. The video did its job.
You might also need a "How to apply ointment" from that serious burn you just got. :)
The coffee was made. I think it’s pretty serious lol. Did you feel the need to hop on and spread your coffee knowledge to be a snob or?? That’s all we’re getting here lol.
The cover should not be placed that way on the counter, unhygienic
Hi! Thanks for the tip! Thanks for visiting and watching our videos. 🙂
@@yummyph coffee looks great n thanks for showing us how, much appreciated
4 mins? So the coffe is cold
Hi! If you use just boiled water, it should still be hot or at least warm if your weather is much cooler than the tropics. 😉 Thanks for visiting and watching our video. 😊
Coffee mad weak
"Brewing coffee in a coffee press requires more than just saturating the beans in hot water." ....and yet so many inaccuracies here.
-Why press the filter from the start?? No stirring really? and can you see those coffee grinds not on water after pressing
-4 tbsp to 3 oz?? then still look bland when poured
-yes, slowly and gently, but those hands sure are not
-so many left over coffee after pouring so not really sure here what that measurement is for
watch Jeff Hoffman instead guys
Hi! This is a basic instructional video on how to use a coffee press. :) If you already know how to use one, feel free to use it as desired. :) Thanks for watching our videos! :)
@@yummyph I don't mean to attack you, and I mean well to say all these. But basic does not excuse misinformation. Please represent "Ph" well, thanks and keep making more vids! :)
Lol
That coffee don't look good.
Hi! This is just a quick guide, so those who don't know how to use one will know what to do. You can definitely make your coffee stronger than in the video if you so desire. Feel free to up the amount to suit your taste. :)
I certainly will do that, thanks!
@@yummyph Don't be taking this criticism, she doesn't appreciate your excellent work!
Doesn’t* and Thank goodness it isn’t yours lol
@@chleorrrrnorrrrr2915 Wow..unbelievable command of the English language. Should I just throw my English degree out of the window now? or is it chuck, or toss or dispose of...?
but he cares about the water in Florida
It looks more like "coffeed water" than a real coffee. I prefer to invest in a real machine
Hello! The way all coffee, the drink, is made is through water extracting the coffee essence from the beans no matter what machine you use. So yes, this coffee as with all other coffee is basically "coffeed water". :) Thanks for watching our videos. :)
Flamma2512 Not too bright are ya?
@@yummyph Yes but an espresso machine through filtering under pressure is much more effective in this extraction than just brewing. Brewing in a coffee press is practically the same methodology as the dissolved coffee, which is of course of the lowest quality. I have tried French-press coffee a few times recently and it's far less tasty than a good espresso. Cheers.
A “real” coffee isn’t an espresso though lol. An espresso is an espresso made in an espresso machine. Which isn’t any more real than any other hot drink machine. Coffee makers make coffee, espresso machines make espressos 😂
