Expanding your repertoire of brewing methods is like buying spices\u2014the more you have, the more capable your kitchen becomes.\r\n\r\nFor example, spiced coffee<\/a> can be created by adding spices directly to the coffee grounds, a process that favors a french press brew, or adding coffee after the fact to a spiced milk solution, a process that is somewhat less dependent on coffee quality.\r\n\r\nCoffeemakers vary in their convenience and effectiveness, so we investigated the pros and cons of each device.\r\n

French Press <\/strong><\/h3>\r\nYou might have known the French press as a plunger, press pot or coffee press. Elite drinkers refer to it as a cafetiere. The device is simple: Coffee grounds and hot water are mixed together in the carafe, and after the water is saturated, a piston with a filter on the bottom separates the coffee and used grounds. The aeropress functions similarly to the French press, but the piston design is different.\r\n\r\nFor a perfect cup of coffee, use a French press. But this cylindrical carafe, plunger and filter can do more than brew a beautiful light roast. We found plenty of French press hacks<\/a>!\r\n
