Would a french press work well for Greek Coffee?
I was wondering if the screen would still filter out the coffee because Greek coffee is basically powder, I’m planning on getting a travel french press mug so i can drink my coffee on the go without worrying about getting a mouthful of coffee powder.
I know not to drink the last sip but its hard to see when the last sip is if its in a Travel Mug
No, you can’t.
Here’s why:
1) That fine of a grind will over extract & be bitter. Larger chunks require longer for the flavors to release (20-30seconds for espresso vs 3-4 minutes for french press)
2) If you read the instructions included with a french press they warn against using too fine a grind. The reason isn’t that it will get through the filter; it’s that the grounds will clog the filter. If that happens, you won’t be able to easily depress the plunger and the pressure may send scalding bitter coffee all over the place (& you).
3) Greek/Turkish coffee is made by repeatedly bringing coffee to the edge of boiling to create the foam. A french press is designed only for steeping.
