This isn’t the best way to make coffee, it’s simply how I like it.
It’s largely the James Hoffman method. I do 10g/100ml to keep it simple, so in the morning I grind 12.5g for 250ml of coffee.
I let the boiling water and coffee mix for 2 min, then give it a bit of a stir, wait 30sec, and slowly push down on the press.
After, I mix with 7g of sugar and 25g of 18% cream (yes I weigh what I put in it, am I weird??) and it’s delicious.
How about you guys?
I am a total beginner and am learning and experimenting a lot, but I find myself always gravitating back to the James Hoffmann method too, in my case almost exactly the original method.
One thing that I am playing around with right now is using the Flow Control cap instead of placing the plunger on top after adding water. That’s mostly just to simplify the prep a bit while also making it a bit more consistent. I probably don’t want to do inverted for now :)
