This video was produced a while back when I was teaching myself about coffee. I started making coffee using a very basic method - crushed beans (using a mortar & pestle) and? hot water in a pot (a.k.a. cowboy coffee). I really didn't know what I was doing, but I figured it would be a good way to learn. The method in this video was sort of the final evolution of the bare bones method of making coffee. @FunkMasterFelix – Thank you for the comment.

It sounds like the issue could be your grinder; this could be especially true if you are using a high speed blade type grinder. Try grinding some coffee & dump it out on a paper plate to see how consistent the? grinds are. That will tell you a lot. The grinder I use in the video produces very good/consistent grinds. Sludge is from overly fine powder in the grind that gets past the screen in the press. @barbosabill1 – As long as the french press has a screen on it, then it should be okay.

I would also suggest finding some fresh roasted beans if you can and/or order some from some place like espresso zone dot com. The Lavazza or Miscela beans are very good. Whole Foods also has a nice Kona coffee bean. ? With the Kyocera, make a few marks so you can duplicate the settings. See my other videos for more details on the grinder. I've made a few modifications to mine recently. @barbosabill1 – the Kyocera is very good and should make a big difference on flavor.

Most complicated coffee? I've ever seen. All that effort down in a few gulps–amazing.

This video outlines the original method I used when I first started drinking coffee. I wanted to learn about coffee & coffee beans from the ground up, so I started? using a very simple method. I have since switched to drinking straight shots of espresso, but this method in the video is still a very good backup method and results in an outstanding caffe latte that many of my friends still rave about. @kkjgg112391 – lol :-) Don’t knock it until you try it – it’s actually pretty good coffee!
