1. Get a standard 8-cup French Press (also called a Press Pot or Cafetiere) and remove the lid and plunger screen.2. Measure in eight slightly rounded tablespoons of coarse ground coffee.
3. Set a digital timer for 4 minutes and press start.
4. Add hot (195-205 degree F/95 degree C) water up to about one inch below the top. If you have on-demand hot water in your office (that little red spigot on the water cooler), you are ready to go. If not, use an electric water kettle to heat your water just below boiling.
5. Stir the coffee with a plastic spoon or wooden chopstick until it is mixed and all the coffee grounds are wet. You’ll notice some light brown foam (called crema) on the surface, which is a sign of good fresh coffee beans.
6. Carefully place the lid and plunger assembly back on top, but do not push down the plunger yet. Place the pot on top of your file cabinet or desk and let it brew.
7. Check your email or do something strategic for 4 minutes until the timer goes off.
8. Slowly push down the plunger screen until it reaches the bottom, trapping all the coffee grounds.
9. Pour and enjoy.
