Tried the french press tonight…I liked it. Used regular folgers coffee – tasted like the very first cup of coffee that comes out of the pot on an early, cool morning. Not sure how much I will use it because it seems like quite a bit of work for 1 cup of coffee. Work…meaning you can’t just pull the carafe out of the coffee maker – fill your cup and be on your way…It takes boiled water, 3-4 minutes of steeping, pressing the grounds down and then you get your coffee. Probably should contain a warning that it should not be used for the first cup of coffee of the day 🙂
Time for bed – back to work tomorrow…you know how much fun that is after a week of vacation.
Until next time…..
Hmmm. I’ve thought about a French press, but if it’snot that much better,I think I’ll pass. For me, the grinding right before brewing is key, plus a sprinkle of salt.

The point of a french press is that the coffee tastes better. There is no interference from the filter. Good things take time; like that tree that was murdered so you could have a coffee table made from its carcass. If all you need is the caffeine, take some nodoze and go to work. Lot’s of ways to get a kick in the head. I prefer to sit and enjoy a hot cup of coffee. That’s why I get up two hours before I have to go to work.
Slow down. Enjoy your coffee. Prop your feet up on your dead tree and relax. You’ll soon have termites in your living room anyway.
