Hello @any123
Thanks for sharing your cup of French Press Coffee. That's true about getting too much residue in your cup. To avoid that, you could use a strainer before pouring your coffee.
Also, some people take the time to scrape off some of the coffee, after leaving it to brew, and before plunging the press.
Here's a link to my post I did on
How To Make A Good French Press, I hope you'll find this useful:)
Wishing you a lovely day!
Thanks. Yeah I do pretty much what you do except I use a scales to measure the coffee and water, I don't push the plunger down either. I follow the below guidelines roughly from James Hoffman
I'll probably use a strainer going forward also, which is a good suggestion, thanks!
