Knowing how to make French Press coffee means knowing how to make what is probably the most robust, the richest coffee in the world. Ah, French means the spice of life, no? Mon Dieu, knowing the secrets of how to make French Press coffee shall surely lead to le bon vivant!
In truth, while it sounds like it must be a complicated, rocket-science type thing to know how to make coffee in a French Press, it isn't. French press instructions are very simple, and using the French Press to make coffee is fun. It's like the French kiss... simple, but first you still need to know what you're doing and what's required of you.
The biggest manufacturer of the French Press equipment is Bodum. The French Press is sometimes known the "press pot" or often times just "plunger". When you begin to make French Press coffee, you will need a tea kettle in addition to the French press.
The first part of knowing how to make French Pressed coffee is selecting really good coffee to begin with. As with most coffee brewing methods, any coffee can be French pressed. But, if you're using an exceptional brewing method, don't you want to use a better grade or blend of coffee than you would choose for everyday automatic drip coffee? Of course you do.
"City blend" or "French roasted" coffee beans are usually among the best with a French coffee press, because they are a darker roasted variety of coffee bean. Vietnamese or other Far East Asian coffees (they were taught by the French and Dutch colonialists a few centuries ago and they have arguable the best coffee-growing geophysical conditions on the planet) are also good choices.
As a rule of thumb with brewing any and all coffee, you should buy your own beans and grind them yourself. If you can't grind your own beans, or perhaps just don't feel like doing this step, buy small, vacuum-sealed bags of coffee.
Assuming, though, that you'll grind your own beans, know that a coarse grind works best in the French press coffee maker. Too fine a grind will result in sediment in your finished cup of coffee. A coarser grind will allow the filter to screen out unwanted particles, and ensures total separation of the liquid from the sediments.
Now, the next step preparing French Pressed coffee is estimating just the right proportions of coffee to the water. Simply use 1 ½ level tablespoons of ground coffee per six ounces of water. This will produce a very strong coffee, if you prefer a milder taste, just adjust the coffee down to 1 tablespoons. Experiment to see how you prefer your pressed coffee. And for the purest taste, always use the highest quality water available, filtered or bottled (not distilled) water is best.
Take your teakettle and fill it with cold, filtered water. Bring the water to a boil. Once it is boiling, take it off the heat and pour it directly onto the grounds in the French press coffee maker. Immediately put your lid on the pot, but wait for 3 - 5 minutes, allowing the coffee grounds steep before you depress the plunger. This will ensure that the coffee will exude all of it's very best flavor first.
There is nothing like the aroma of French pressed coffee steeping.
You will see that the coffee grounds expand or "swell" during the steeping process. After you have allowed the grounds to steep for up to 5 minutes, gently push down the French Press plunger, and watch as the mesh filter pushes the coffee grounds to the bottom to separate the liquid from the grounds.
Voila! You know how to make coffee using a French coffee press! There is no going back once you have experienced how easy and truly wonderful this coffee making method can be.

In the old days, before the electric kettles were introduced, a heavy metal kettle was used to boil the water for tea or coffee. When the water reached boiling point, the pressure was released through the funnel, making a whistling sound as the vapors came out of the funnel. The whistling sound was so popular with the tea drinkers that the kettle was called a whistling kettle.
These kettles were made of metals such as steel, aluminum and copper. These were to be placed directly on the stove and the whistle served the purpose of an alarm to indicate that the water is boiled.
Many years have passed and these kettles have undergone a sea change in terms of material used, design and even the way it is used, but the popularity of these kettles remain unchanged.

How Does A Coffee Press Work?
A coffee press, as mentioned looks like a very simple device, basically like a coffee maker carafe with a rod down the center connected to a round filter. The filter via the rod can be moved from the top to the bottom of the glass carafe, this allows you to separate the coffee grounds from the water.
So how does it actually work? Coffee beans are first ground very coarse, they need to be more coarse then you would use in a drip coffee machine so that when the boiling water is poured over them the water can absorb the flavor, aroma, and acids from the beans. Water is boiled and poured over the grounds with the plunger filter out. The filter is replaced inside the carafe, the rod is pushed downwards into the carafe to separate the grounds form the water, leaving you with a aroma rich pot of coffee.

This is an article about red coffee maker, but what is so special about this coffee machine? This is not about a brand or a particular model, but a color, so why am I writing an article about the color red? Well, the materials which I used to write my articles, come from the questions and queries that I get from people looking for coffee making machine. Sure, best and gourmet are still the most popular coffee machines that coffee lovers are looking for.
What is surprising is the color red is also one of the most searched coffee brewers. This is pretty interesting, don't you think so? Rather than asking me where to get the best, or how I would evaluate certain brand of machines making coffee, people are asking me which red coffee brewer I would recommend. Being curious and hoping to know the real reason behind the many requests on red coffee machines, I chat with those people asking, and then confirm the result with professional.
The feedback from these folks on the need for a red color machine is because after running through many color scheme in their mind, they felt that red color would be the one most suitable to blend into their kitchen decor.
I leave it at that and did not asked any more questions although, I still have plenty of it. For example, why did they not consider a under counter or build in coffee brewer? And why is red and not yellow their choice. I asked a friend who is an interior designer about this situation, and this is how he replied. When people are doing renovation for their kitchen, they would designate space for oven, dish washer, washing machine and fridge.
But, build in or under counter coffee machine is not something that they would factor in. Most consumers still think of coffee makers as something you put on your counter top, thus they would finished their kitchen renovation prior to looking for a coffee maker.
And the color red tend to be a generic color that is able to blend into most of the kitchen decoration. It looks good but not over powering, moreover, it is a color that is common enough for people to accept it. Colors like yellow for example, would be considered to be too loud for many people, while silver is too boring. Thus, a red one is a color that can strike a balance.
It is difficult to recommend coffee brewers based on color. But, if I would to do it, I would suggest one that comes with a lower price point.
This is because, if look and feel is the primary focus on the person looking for it, taste profile is not that important. So, they would not want to spent too much on similar looking machine just to have a better coffee. That being said, freshness is still essential. Based on these criteria, I would recommend the "kalorik" red thermo flask coffee maker. It has the look and feel (and most importantly the red color) that people are looking for. And its thermal feature would keep coffee hot and fresh for at least 2 hours.
And the price point for this is affordable at less than , a price people would not mind spending on coffee machine. There you have it, my take on why people are looking for a red coffee brewer, and the model which I would recommend...

This uses manual mechanisms though and if you fancy some nifty machines sold in the market primarily because you lack the time and the patience to brew manually, you can choose the drip brewers. Just make sure that it has a showerhead to go with it as this helps the brewing mechanism in the extraction of coffee essential oil. Zojirushi, Cuisinart, Bunn and Mr. Coffee are two ideal brands. These brands have received impressive reviews.
