How do I remove small grounds when using a french press?
When I use a french press to brew coffee, there always is some small grounds with the coffee.
I have adjust the grinder to make coarse grounds, but this does not help a lot.
Can I remove these annoying grounds without a filter?
Best Answer
After pressing the coffee I always let it settle a while prior to pouring. Pour slowly, then let it settle a moment in the cup. I leave the last of the coffee in the press to avoid most of the sludge. Some very fine grounds will inevitably make it into the cup -- it is the nature of the beast.

You want to use coarse grounds Pre-ground coffee is ground to a size that works well with drip coffee makers, but it's not so great for french presses (and, of course, it's almost always old and stale). The small grounds get stuck in the fine mesh filter - and sometimes they just slip right through.Smarter way to clean a French Press Coffee Maker
