STEP 1: PREHEAT & PREP
Warm your French Press with hot water, then discard.
STEP 2: ADD COFFEE & BLOOM (0:00-0:30)
Add 48 g of freshly ground coffee. Start the timer and pour 120 g of hot water. Let bloom for 30 seconds.
STEP 3: POUR & STEEP (0:30-4:00)
Add remaining water up to total weight of 720 g. Stir or swirl vigorously to ensure all grounds are saturated. Place the lid on so all the grounds are fully submerged, but don’t press yet. Let coffee steep for 3 minutes.
STEP 4: PRESS & SERVE (4:00-4:30)
After 4 minutes of total brewing time, slowly press the plunger down, then pour immediately to prevent over-extraction.
