Are you a Peetnik?

I used to be a little skeptical if all the fuss was worth it, but I am a convert now.

Guess I'll have to do a comparison test between my french press and Mr. Coffee (paper filter) this weekend. With Gevalia, I forget which roast is the current one opened - I'm doing the European coffee house series.

sorry...1 more question...for 3 scoops (about 6Tbls) of coffee, how much water do you put in the press? I'm going to try it when I get home.

I use a Bodum 4-cup press like this one which makes just a little more coffee than can comfortably fit in your basic coffee mug.

Three scoops make a single strong cup of coffee. I would much prefer to have a smaller cup of strong coffee than a larger cup of weak coffee.

I couldn't get by Peet's yesterday (running too late), so I went today.

One word:

YUM!
note the coffee color I chose?

I had the Sulawesi-Kalosi which is delicious.

...I found a double walled Bodum French press at Williams Sonoma. It should keep the coffee warmer. Oh, and if you have any problems with your coffee maker (even if you have had it for years), they will replace it free with the same or equal coffee maker.
