What are some popular coffee brewing methods?

There are several popular coffee brewing methods, including drip brewing, French press, espresso, and pour-over. Would you like to know more about any specific method?

Can you explain how to use a French press?

Sure! To use a French press, start by coarsely grinding your coffee beans. Add about 1 ounce of coffee for every 15 ounces of water. Pour hot water over the coffee grounds, stir gently, and let it steep for about 4 minutes. Then, press down the plunger slowly and serve!

What’s the difference between espresso and regular coffee?

Espresso is brewed by forcing hot water through finely-ground coffee under pressure, resulting in a concentrated shot. Regular coffee, often brewed using methods like drip or pour-over, uses coarser grounds and typically has a milder flavor.

Which method is best for beginners?

For beginners, drip brewing is often the easiest method to start with. It's straightforward and requires minimal equipment. Plus, you can easily adjust the strength by changing the coffee-to-water ratio.
