Hi,
My wife just bought a Bodum French Press for me. Instructions say to use one rounded scoop for a 4oz cup of coffee. My problem or question is this. The instructions do not say how much water to use per cup. This makes me feel stupid. I am guessing I use one rounded scoop with 4oz of water, but after brewing I end up with less that 4 oz of coffee due to the fact some water is left in the coffee grounds....right? Then 2 scoops with 8oz of water and I end up with less than 8oz at the end… did I miss something or is this correct? Do some of you use a few extra ounces of water per cup?
Thanks,
Jeff
