I’m going to have a small French press for my coffee, as I’ve spent a little more than I wanted to on my first hand grinder so I’ll be saving my pennies for a good while. What’s your preferred ratio of water to coffee when making a French press? What’s your technique for brewing? I prefer a light roast, if that matters (?)
A point of confusion for me has always been is that 60g of beans for 1000ml of water or 60g of beans for 1000ml of desired coffee since some of the water gets trapped with the ground beans?
most recipies use coffee in and water in as coffee out varies by grind size, total volume and method.
