I have been using one for the last 2 weeks. Still trying to get the water/coffee mix right. I first went with the 2T per 6oz of water and found it to be way too strong so I tapered back from there and now brewing 5-6T per 24oz of water. I really like the flavor. The only drawbacks are brewing 24 oz at a time and the coffee cools very fast in the press.

I only fill my press about 1/2 full. I drink 2 cups at a sitting and I prefer it strong.
It makes some good coffee! bALMING |

We have one but we don't use it anymore. Community Red Bag Dark Roast in a drip pot is what we like.

I read that the Folgers plant is in New Orleans, and you might not be able to get Folgers for a while.

The Folgers plant on Old Gentilly had some damage as I recall. They are producing but I don't know if it's at 100%. Driving past that place every day made me Jones for a cup of coffee, just not Folgers brand. |

Yup, been using it for a while now. For a more consistent grind make sure that you use a quality burr grinder. By using an inferior grinder you'll have more problems with "mud" at the bottom of your cup due to the inconsistency of the grind.

I guess that's OK if you can't handle espresso.

When my brother-in-law sold his share of a pharmaceutical company he started, and cashed a single check for $10 million, this is the first thing he bought:
Capresso Now, when I visit my family back in Michigan, I have to wait until noon or so until I get to his house to get a decent cup of coffee. Is $1999 a lot of money for a coffee/espresso maker? Sure. But that's one hell of a cup of joe. |

I use the "toddy coffee" cold brew method.
www.toddycoffee.com/ It makes a very concentrated brew which is kept in the refrigerator. When you want a cuppa joe, pour about 1" of the resulting concentrate in your mug, fill will water, and nuke it for about 2 minutes. This is the smoothest coffee you'll ever drink. |
