a little rude mishmash of life: feed me wednesday

wednesday, 25th oktober

W is for wednesday and for WOW. because i have been constant.

today, i shall demonstrate.
How to Make a nice cuppa~

Well, this method is the French Press method, not the socks method so all you YaKoon fans, keep the socks!

of course, lay your hands on a french press, otherwise known as the plunger. mine's a Bodum. just nice for ONE cup.
next, get yourself some decent coffee beans. whole beans. then get the coffee guys to grind the beans for french press use. not espresso, not drip. get only certain types of beans that goes well with the plunger.

then, add in the coffee powder as to how hard you want the coffee to kick you later. i am putting about 4 teaspoon.

water. hot water.

fill her up.

while waiting for the coffee to infuse, put your precious beans back into the freezer. or fridge. this keeps the coffee from losing its flavour. make sure your container is air tight. reason one, you don't want the coffee to lau hong. reason two, you don't want the fridge/freezer to smell of coffee, neither do you want all your food to smell the same. reason three, you don't want your coffee to absorb the smells that goes on and on in the fridge. coffee powder absorbs smells really well. on the other hand, you can use coffee to absorb bad smells, like the way people put a cut lemon inside.

oh i forgot to mention, the temperature of the water should be 98degC. if you boil the water in a kettle, let the water rest for about 30seconds before using it.

when a few minutes have passed, your coffee is almost ready! stir it

cover

and plunge away! gently please. in case the liquid spills.

ah ha. add sugar and milk in your cup accordingly and pour the coffee out.
