NGMI, French press sucks unless you want grit mud.
You bought picrel and expected a good cup, didn't you?
Your main deal is getting good fresh coffee with a good grind.
>If you just want to get your feet wet first before dropping hundreds on a grinder, ask the hipsters who roasted your coffee to grind it for you, it will just degrade quicker.
>Yes, go to hipsters, pay the $15-$20/lbs, it's worth it.
As far as brewers, aeropress is a modernized French press, gives you a much better brew.
>If the hipsters have an espresso machine, try a just an espresso without any adulterants.
Many people are surprised when they actually like it, despite the very bold flavors you get out of it.
