French Press brewing guide
Cafetiere Brewing Steps:
- Start by bringing your water to the boil in your kettle.
- Next you’ll need to grind your coffee to a coarse texture, you will be using 16g of coffee for each cup you’re looking to make. For this recipe we will be using 48g of coffee.
- Put your 48g of ground coffee into the bottom of your Cafetiere and place onto the scale, the brew ratio for Cafetiere is 1:12 so for every 1g of coffee we use we are looking to add 12g/ml of water. Using this ratio add 576g of water to your coffee and start your timer, give the coffee a slight stir to mix and to help infuse then put the top back on and wait.
- When your timer reaches 4 minutes its time to press down your plunger at a steady pace but ensuring you don’t fully press down into the bottom of the Cafetiere to avoid disrupting any grounds at the bottom of the jug.
- After this point its then ready to pour and serve.
