I was too and then someone gave me a French press, now I'm a sophisticant ๐ง

I mean clean/heat container add coffee and water, let soak(brew?) ~3min then press and pour? Is that fancy? I have found that different coffees would need different times at which the brew would become too bitter or too weak but that is largely coffee dependent since my water is the same temp for all. I like trying different coffees so rarely have the desire to figure out the specifics to French press each one.
I was lying, I'm still a cave man. Hot bean juice taste good.
French press is great! Try sometime to let it soak for longer time, like 10min and don't push the plunger down but slowly pour through it using it as a sieve. You'll get quite a bit cleaner cup!
I'll give that a shot!
