How to Make Perfect Coffee with a French Press

[Math Is Hard]

Make coffee? What is this strange use of the verb "make"? In L.A. we buy coffee. It is produced by professional barristas. I would not assume that I have the skill or training to "make" coffee.

Oh, if you freeze your coffee, be sure to keep it frozen the whole time. I don't remember what happened, a storm or something, but the electricity went out, and my coffee in the freezer thawed and refroze. It had a serious mayonnaise flavor- like I stirred in a heaping glob of mayonnaise.
Also, coffee is very porous, so be sure it is kept sealed, unless you like a "everything in my freezer" aroma.

There are decent places. It's just that most people have been brain washed to believe that Starbucks is good coffee. That and telling them that a small is tall and medium is "grande". I tried very had to deactivate the brainwashing when I was working at the Natale's Coffee.
