Awesome, thank you!

If you have a pourover brewer handy, just brew in thefrench press and pour into the filter in the pourover. Melita has a $6 pourover device.

This is definitely a great way to get a super clean cup of coffee. Thanks for the tip Peter!

My technique (bear in mind I’m a novice), is the following. • Medium freshly ground light roast beans • Bodum 500mL Columbia insulated French press pre heated with boiling from EKG Corvo • ~30 seconds later remove boiling and replace with 125g/L, in my case 62.5 grams in my 500mL press • ~30 seconds later bloom the beans with 100g/100mL of the water which should be closer to 95C now and stir for ~30 seconds • Pour in the remainder of the water to top up to 500mL and stir until the crust becomes thin and breaks apart and put on plunger lid • Wait ~5 minutes and slowly press the plunger down over the next 15-30 seconds • Wait a minute for the silt to settle and decant Loving this right now, just got the ability to check temperatures more accurately so I’ll be playing around a bit.

Note, the filter paper will remove oils which add a depth of flavour, I choose not to do this for personal preference, but I decant slowly to avoid pouring silt into my cup.

Hi cool video What setting did you set the Ode for the James Hoffman technique.....Ode gen 2 it looks like Also if I'm using a dark roast, do I need to increase the grind size to a coarser grind? Thanks, I look forward to trying all three recipes

Hey @cycles_beruff4005, thanks for your question. We used grind setting: 7 on the Fellow Ode. Indeed, when using a dark roast for a French press, it's generally recommended to use a coarser grind. Here's why: Flavor Extraction: Dark roasted beans are more porous due to the extended roasting process. A coarser grind ensures you don't over-extract the flavors, which can lead to a bitter taste. Prevent Overpowering Taste: A coarser grind with dark roast beans will help you achieve a smoother, more balanced flavor profile in your cup. Reduce Sediment: Using a coarser grind will help reduce the amount of fine coffee particles that can slip through the French press mesh filter, leading to a clearer brew with less sediment.

@@volcanicacoffee very cool.. thank you

Old school way, a good coffee for sure, but quick is a joke and be drink quickly and not hot is probably true. Interesting for afternoon maybe, for morning😴 expresso is more quick 👍

Agreed. We love the hands off time, it gives you plenty of opportunity to make some breakfast!

What brand is that red press?

I'm not sure, it's one I picked up in a charity shop years ago. The metal insulated ones are great if you want to keep it warm for a long time!

What's interesting about these methods is, every one you watch gives the same or similar methods...
