Step 1

Grind the coffee beans to a medium grind using a coffee grinder (a burr grinder is most consistent but not required). The size of grind is important: if it’s too fine it can create sediment; if it’s too coarse it’s not flavorful enough.

Step 2

Heat the water to hot but not boiling (200 to 205 degrees Fahrenheit) using an electric kettle, or bring it to a boil on the stovetop and then let it sit for 1 minute to decrease in temperature.

Step 3

Add the coffee grounds to the bottom of the pot.

Step 4

Add hot water to the height of the coffee and stir with a spoon. Set a timer and wait for 1 minute.

Step 5

Fill the French press to the top (just below the spout) and stir again. Set a timer and wait for 4 minutes.

Step 6

Place the lid on the French press and slowly press the plunger all the way down.

Step 7

Fill two tall glasses with ice. Pour the hot coffee over the ice (about half the ice should melt). Add additional ice if necessary. If desired, serve with a splash of milk or a drizzle of sweetener like maple syrup or simple syrup.
