1—PREPARE
• Place a filter in the dripper
and place the dripper
carefully in the pitcher
• Pour boiling water through
the filter to rinse. Dump out
water before brewing
2—PRE-WET
• Grind the coffee dose
(see page 7) at a medium
coarseness and put it in the
filter
• Pour a small amount of hot
water (just off the boil)
on top of the coffee—just
enough to evenly wet the
grounds
• Wait at least 30 seconds for
the pre-wet or ‘bloom’. This
gives the coffee time to be
evenly saturated, so it can
extract evenly
3—POUR
• Slowly pour water over the
grinds in a circular motion to
create a “slurry” of coffee
• Once the slurry level is 1/2
inch from the top of filter,
pause your pour to allow
coffee to draw down into the
carafe. Avoid having coffee
on the side of the filter, out
of contact with water
• Slowly add remaining water
until you reach the desired
volume of brewed coffee (see
page 7)
• Ideally the brew is complete
in 3-6 minutes
4—SERVE
• Carefully remove the dripper
from the pitcher and place
on top of a mug to cool
before disposing of filter
• Place the cork on top of the
pitcher to pour
1—PREPARE
• Grind the coffee dose
(see page 7) at a medium
coarseness and put in the
pitcher
• Allow your water to cool to
around 205º or at least a
minute off boil
2—POUR
• Pour the hot water until you
reach the desired volume of
coffee (see page 7)
• Give the coffee a gentle stir
to make sure all grinds are
wet
• Let brew for 3-4 minutes,
use the cork lid for extra
insulation
3—PRESS
• Optional: use a spoon to
scoop off any foam on top
• Place the French press
plunger on the pitcher and
slowly press down
• Optional: Let the coffee rest
for another minute to let the
sediment settle
• Slowly pour the coffee so as
not to disturb the grinds at
the bottom
• Decant all of the coffee at
once for the best flavor—
coffee that stays in the
pitcher may continue to
extract and become bitter
over time
4—CLEAN
• For easier clean up do not
leave the plunger submerged
in the coffee
• Ideally clean up shortly after
enjoying coffee to reduce oily
build up on the metal French
press parts
