    • I’m sure that I don’t have to say this for those looking to purchase a French Press because most likely you are coffee snobs like me 😜, but make sure you use good coffee beans from the beginning - not a generic bean from a big box store.
    • I grind my own beans and I'm finding that I am able to make as good a cup of coffee at home the same as going to my local expensive coffee shop.
