Ingredients
  

Coffee Base

  • 45 g coffee coarse grind
  • 500 ml hot water
  • Ice cubes as needed
  • Milk optional

Instructions
 

  • Add coarsely ground coffee to the French press for a bold, full-bodied extraction.
  • Pour hot water over the grounds evenly and stir gently to saturate all coffee.
  • Let the coffee steep for four minutes without pressing to build strong flavor.

Notes

Adjust grind size to control texture; coarser grind creates smoother coffee, finer increases strength. Avoid over-steeping to prevent bitterness. Use large ice cubes to reduce dilution. Customize with syrups or spices. Store in refrigerator up to two days for best flavor and freshness.
