French Press

French press is ideal if you’re looking for a strong cup of coffee. Personally, I’m not a huge fan of it, but it’s definitely popular.

The idea is pretty simple. You let the coffee grounds sit in hot water for a few minutes, then press them down to separate the grounds from the coffee. There’s no complicated technique involved. All you need is a French Press
