Why French Press?

High-quality coffee maker from France

The plunger pot was probably invented around 1850 in France. However, it was patented in 1929 by the Italian Attilio Calimani, after he had improved the press for years. Since then, coffee lovers all over the world have been enjoying their coffee from the coffee press. The French Press owes its name to its structure. Unlike other methods, filter paper is not used to separate coffee and coffee grounds, but a metal stamp with a sieve, which is used to press the coffee grounds towards the bottom.

FAQs

How does coffee preparation work with the French Press?

With the coffee press you can enjoy delicious coffee in just a few minutes without much effort. All you have to do is grind your coffee, put it in the pot and pour hot water over it. After a short brewing time of about four minutes, just press the stamp down slowly and evenly and you can enjoy your coffee. Particularly practical: This preparation method has a short brewing time and does not require any paper filters. The stamp, which is equipped with a metal sieve, is used to separate coffee grounds and coffee. As a result, oils and fats are not filtered out, so that the coffee from the coffee press tastes a little stronger and more intense. For this reason, a medium to coarse degree of grinding is recommended for this preparation. If there is still some coffee left in the pot after pouring a cup of coffee, you should decant it to stop the brewing process. If you leave it in the coffee maker, your coffee will be bitter.

How many teaspoons per 1 liter French Press?

With this preparation method, approx. 60-65 g of coffee are recommended for 1 liter of water. A heaped tablespoon holds about 10 g, special coffee spoons 7-12 g. We therefore recommend that you use a suitable precision scale for dosing the coffee powder.

What grind should I choose for the French Press?

For the preparation in a stamp pot, you should choose a medium to coarse grind. This guarantees a slow and even extraction, so that your coffee is particularly intense. However, how coarse you grind your coffee beans also depends on how long you let your coffee steep. The ideal brewing time for this preparation method is four minutes.

French Press: Coffee preparation without much effort

In just a few steps to aromatic coffee enjoyment

French Press mit Kaffeetasse

Preparing coffee in the French Press is simple and uncomplicated. With this full immersion coffee maker, you can prepare it in just a few steps. All you need besides a plunger pot is hot water and coffee. In contrast to the pour-over method, there is no paper filter here.

We recommend that you freshly grind your coffee in a coffee grinder before preparing it. A slightly coarser grind is best here. It is best to weigh the perfect amount with a precision scale beforehand. Then put the ground coffee in the pot and fill it up with hot water. The water should have a temperature of approx. 95°C. Then simply stir the coffee so that the coffee powder is evenly distributed. After a short rest period of about four minutes, insert the stamp with the metal sieve and press it slowly and evenly towards the ground. Pay particular attention to the duration of the brewing time so that your coffee is not over- or under-extracted. Once you have pushed the plunger all the way down, you can pour your coffee into the cup and enjoy.

The result is an aromatic, full-bodied coffee, because with this method of preparation the fats and oils contained in the coffee are not filtered out by the metal sieve.
