About this episode
This episode provides a tip for achieving cleaner coffee when using a French press by adjusting grind size.
French press coffee grounds in the cup usually means the grind is too fine for the brew method. This tip helps coffee drinkers dial in grind size for a French press, AeroPress, or drip machine so the cup tastes clean and the filter does its job. Go a bit coarser when the bottom of the mug looks like coffee “soot,” but avoid going so coarse that the water runs through fast and the coffee turns weak. Music is by Marcus Thorne Bagala.
