I still only have a french press because coffee stuff is expensive (specially in a third world country), and I still don't get tired of it. My suggestion for anyone brewing french press is to cloth filter it (as you're pouring into the cup), it retains the rich body but without the silt and fines and it makes the flavor clearer and cleaner, it also doesn't choke like a paper filter. I brew almost exclusively light to medium fruity coffees and it works like a charm every time.

I used to always make cold brew in a french press and then started to use a Hario cold brew jug. I much prefer the french press because it kept the oils and made the cold brew have a stronger taste that I prefer. The cold brew jug gets no use now that I've gone back to just using a french press.

The coffee geek in me always wanted to transition from instant coffee to proper methods of brewing coffee from grounds. Started it from your channel, watched one of your earliest French Press videos and have been using my French Press for the last 2 years. Love this method and will be getting a moka pot and V60 soon. Don't usually comment but I should appreciate the person who made me go down this beautiful rabbit hole of coffee. Your videos are great. Thanks and keep up the good work!

We usually make 2-3 mason jars to steep cold brew in the fridge and then decant into the French press before plunging. This lets us quickly strain more than one batch at a time and not keep the French press itself stuck in the fridge.

One trick I learnt is if you reheat the milk that you just frothed in the microwave for a few seconds, it makes for a really thick creamier consistency that you can scoop out with a spoon.

Huh. As a tea lover who is finally looking to explore coffee, I guess starting with a French press would be a great beginning to my adventure! Worst case scenario, I suppose if I just don't like coffee after all, I now have an excellent little gadget for tea; never thought of that before.

A chopstick is the best French press stirring tool bar none 👌

Frothing milk with the French press!!! ❤ 10/10 recommend!! I tried after watching this video and I will never use my 10€ hand frother again. I'm flabbergasted how happy I am with the milk froth from the French press. Crazy🤯

I use my French Press for my coffee for every workday. I clean it out using a flexible rubber spatula that you can buy at the dollar store. I get the majority of the grounds out with that and then rinse out. Simple
