This is my 2nd Keurig coffee maker of this model. kzitem.infoUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf The first worked fine for more than 2 years, and I could still get a decent cup of coffee out of it if I fiddled with it when I decided to replace it. The problem I had with my first unit was this: When attempting to brew a cup of coffee, the unit would either keep brewing until the coffee was undrinkable or it would not run long enough and the coffee produced was way too strong. I cleaned the unit as best I could but it did not help. So in the end it was just too much trouble to get a good cup of coffee out of it, so I decided to replace it with a new one, which has been working great since I unpacked it.

For reference, based on the video- 25 grams of whole beans, or 3 scoops before grinding (medium course, because too bitter might be due to a too fine grind) - then to be used for the french press to make coffee | preheat the frenchpress with freshly boiled water until filled to the top, then discard water, then add the medium grind coffee | add hot water just enough to soak the coffee grinds and stir a bit, then let sit for 30 seconds | after the 30 seconds, add the rest of water until almost full, and stir again | put plunger and cover, let sit for 3 1/2 minutes | after 3 and a half mins push plunger down ( If its too hard to push it means the grinds are too fine and if its too easy the coffee grind is too coarse) | pour the coffee into mug to prevent it from becoming bitter

You're both right. This barista's just in a hurry because he's late for his antifa rally. Here's what I do, 5scoops preground, pour boiling water on top, wait 6-7m, strain & pour. I also rinse out container & pour back in the coffee to double strain the brew. Ridding the excess ensure comfortable digestion with a worthwhile kick!

My problem with the video is the fact he's using a professional grinder with a big huge kettle, and even tells you you "need" a timer instead of just suggesting you use your phone or a clock. The people clicking these videos want a beginner's guide, using a basic kettle and preground coffee. Also despite the professional gear the technique in this video isn't even that advanced anyway, so this video is more or less useless to the people who do actually own a grinder.

You do need to grind your own coffee and you need a good quality burr type coffee grinder. I weigh my coffee beans and into the grinder and directly into the French press. Add boiling water and I set my timer for 4 minutes after which you have a great cup of coffee. IMO no need to make it any more complicated than that.

Helpful tip... The best water temp for this process is about 195-205 degrees (F), or just under boiling (212F).. This guy's water dispenser is probably set to that temp, but when using a kettle, at home, I tend to take the kettle off the heat right as it starts to whistle, then let it sit for 45-60 seconds, and it's usually perfect.. This works really well too, if you have a grinder, so you can grind the beans while waiting for the water to cool for a minute.. Note: I have never pre-heated my press, instead I simply pour the coffee into the carafe of my automatic drip maker, and turn it on to keep the coffee hot.. It's an interesting step, maybe I'll try it?.. Other than that, I pretty much have always brewed coffee like this guy does..

BlurryBigfoot "Specific gravity of 1"? What the hell are you talking about? Gravity is expressed in meters per seconds squared and have nothing do to with why 1 gram of water is 1 cl of water. Water was defined as "1 Liter of water weights 1 kilogram at 1 atmospheric pressure at 4 degrees C" Gravity just happened to be 9.82 m/s² when they came up with this. Stop spreading lies.

Hi there, I am not really sure if it is true but I read somewhere that the ' french press' is not french and that it was invented by Mr, Bodum in Sweden , in other countries this coffee maker is called a 'plunger' . Now, Mr. Bodum, recommends to put the required amount of ground coffee in the plunger , pour boiling water in , give it a wee stir and then let it rest for a bit and plunge it ! I have done it for years and found it to be a pretty good method. Cheers!

@@mash83 Presuming the water is 4°C. 400 grammes is equal to roughly 460 millilitres if the water is room temperature (24°C), in which 1mL = ~0.98g. Close, sure, but compounding makes a big difference. Measure water by weight for 1000g hoping for a litre and you'll end up with ~1.1L of volume, and so on. For 1g of water to equal 1mL, the water would need to be 4°C as that's when water is most dense. People typically don't make their coffee at 4°C but rather at 75°C. The density of water at that temperature is 1mL = 0.96g.

You don't really have to stir, or even do the initial "pre-soak" that he did for 30 seconds. If you like to fiddle around with things and go that extra mile to make it perfect, then go for it. But you can easily just scoop in the coffee, pour the water and wait 3-5 minutes, press the plunger and voila coffee! Honesly you probably won't taste the difference without the extra steps.

I don't get all the hate on that guy, he seems genuinely nice and seems to know a lot about coffee. Also, I think making coffee can be seen as a ritual for some people. If you just want a quick shot of cafeine, yes their are probably easier ways. But if you really want to enjoy your coffee, then brewing with a french press is actually really satisfying. I only drink it on a lazy sunday, but just the whole ritual is great. You're in full control.Making it the way he does really makes you appreciate all the different flavors more. Also.. the smell of freshly ground coffee in the morning is just the best thing.

Great video. I don't understand why people are complaining about this being too much work for a cup of coffee? I love coffee and don't mind spending quite some time for an awesome result. It's 4 minutes of one's life. I ordered my first french-press yesterday from Amazon! How does a high quality french-press compare to a Moccamaster drip-coffee maker? I own one of the latter, and that coffee turns out great every time. Here in Sweden we make our coffee very strong. The coffee in the video looked kinda pale compared to what I'm used to. I make drip-coffee to about the strength of espresso, haha.

To me, I can understand why if say, making coffee is your job you want to do it to the best of your abilities but I feel like half the purpose of having a french press is: speed and ease of use - neither of these benefits were displayed in the video. It all felt much too formal and a tad snobbish in my opinion. This is how you *must* do it. This is the *correct* method to heat your naturally purified, mineral-free, recycled Tibetan spring water. If you aren't using this 6000$ coffee grinder that was manufactured in the spring of 1928 in the bay of Montenegro then you just won't get the *right flavor*. How about...just...hot water? Can it be water that is both water and hot, preferably that was not measured out precisely in painstaking detail? It's crushed beans in water with maybe sugar and milk. I can enjoy and appreciate a lovingly made, highly crafted cup of coffee in certain situations (the weekends, for one) but sometimes I just want to be able to throw some water and grounds in a cup and have a cup ready to go, you know? This video really didn't need to be longer then about 1 minute but they managed to stretch it into just over 4.

My mom told me she was going to the store but she never returned. A police man came to the house and told my father she was killed in a car accident. I was never the same since then.
