Equipment

  • French press
  • kettle
  • Measuring spoon
  • Stirring spoon
  • Glass
  • Ice Tray

Ingredients
  

Coffee Base

  • 30 g coffee medium coarse grind
  • 500 ml hot water
  • Ice cubes as needed
  • 2 tsp sugar or sweetener
  • Milk optional

Instructions
 

  • Add medium-coarse ground coffee to the French press for balanced extraction.
  • Pour hot water over the grounds and stir gently to ensure even saturation.
  • Add sugar while hot and stir until fully dissolved for smooth sweetness.
  • Let coffee steep for four minutes without pressing.
  • Press the plunger slowly and evenly to separate grounds.
  • Fill a glass with ice, pour coffee over, and add milk if desired.

Notes

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