Our French Press coffee makes a mean cup of coffee every time, you know, because it doesn’t have any paper filtering its true personality.
There are so many things that make French Press coffee so special. Apart from the obvious fact that it’s super rich and delicious in taste, because there is no paper filter involved in the brewing process, the brew is more pure. The natural oils from the ground coffee are not filtered out which also gives the coffee a more intense flavour. You are essentially getting the pure flavour and form of coffee in that cup that you brew, it’s the best way to truly enjoy your favourite coffee by indulging in everything it has to offer. French Press coffee is also rich in antioxidants that help with healthy mind functions.
Fun fact: You would think that the French press coffee got its name from France, but the many facts and origin stories state that both the French and Italian have argued about who invented it. There’s one legend that dates back to its founding in the 1850s by Frenchmen; however the first patents were registered back in 1928 in Italy.
French Press is also known as la cafetière, a coffee plunger, a press pot, a coffee press and a lot more, in different corners of the world. Many names, many attributes.
