I hope you're happy, Burntwits and everyone else who demanded it.
Anyways that cup was made following Burntwits French press guide; measured 33 g of ground, about 528 g of water. Though, I did make a slight modification to the original instructions, which was to boil the water first. The guide didn't say to do that, just add the water in, figured it might be better boiled though.
Then I added hella milk and sugar. Oh, yeah, switched to milk and sugar instead of creamer, mostly because the good creamer with ingredient list size like 5 are hells expensive. It... came out really good actually. I feel like better than my evil machine, though I don't know if that's because of the ratios of sugar and milk or not. I feel like I poured about the same amount of milk and sugar though. Hm.
Either way this saves way more counter space in exchange for slightly longer and more care needed, but if the coffee is consistently better, and less space needed... hm. I think yall might've been on to something. Also I can't tell if the press machine is made of glass or a really clear really thick plastic.
As a coffee fanatic, I will say that adding filters to the FP really takes it up a notch and it's the best of both worlds - you get a better tasting cleaner brew and from a laziness standpoint the cleanup is a breeze. Look for Caffi filters. Work in just about any FP.
Unfiltered coffee is also high in cholesterol, a simple paper filter catches most of that.
coffee doesnt contain cholesterol, i think its the cafesatol, that raises the LDL, by inhibiting the enzyme that reduces cholesterol, a filter seems to solve tha tproblem.
But I don't want to.
I do enjoy the Espro I have, very tight seal and fine filter. But my daily driver is cheaper, I just don't pour out the last bit and works fine.
