a whole new world


i have joined the whole new world of brewing coffee with a french press. when i worked at starbucks, this was the method used for the coffee tastings...the way to get the perfect flavor out of the beans.
i'm getting pretty good, and have decided that, in fact, THEY were right. using a french press (although it does have a tendency to feel a bit tedious/messy during clean-up) does make me feel like i'm taking the high-road to coffee making, and the end result is actually a PERFECT cup of full-flavored coffee.
i'm a fan.

While I don't drink coffee, I loved using a press with loose tea leaves. Just made the whole experience more authentic and fun. Enjoy one of life's little pleasures. And good for you.

Thanks for suggesting this, next hubby will want a french press because he is always questing for the perfect cup of coffee.

Honestly, I have no idea what a french press is. I'm not a coffee drinking (just one on occasion, but more for a special flavor or something).

But it sounds cool :)
