Making a flavourful cup of coffee should be the culinary expertise of every coffee lover. Even when you are in the office, a steaming and aromatic cup of coffee should be made easily. However, some of us have trouble creating the perfect blend of coffee in the office.

If you virtually hate the brewer you have in your office because it produces bland results or it breaks down all the time after using it, you should consider purchasing your own personal coffee machine. There are a lot of these sold in the market and they are usually cheaper than the full-sized ones. Also, they occupy a small space in your cubicle.

You can even choose one that is not operated by electricity such as a French press coffee brewer. According to many java enthusiasts, if you want a flavourful cup of coffee, get a French press brewer as this usually produces the most flavourful cup of Joe.

Once you have purchased your personal brewer, here are the things you can do:

Step 1: Purchase your favourite coffee beans and have it ground to a coarse consistency. A French brewer does not use filter so finer coffee grounds might easily fall into the brew basket. If you purchased the standard size of brewer, a good measurement is 8 tablespoons of grounds and then later, you will fill it up with water close to the brim.

Step 2: If it has a digital timer, you can set it up to 4 minutes timer settings and then press the start button. Once done, you can now fill it up with water. Just leave an inch of allowance to the top so it will not spill when you put the plunger. Water should be hot already, preferably around 200 degree Fahrenheit. The grounds will easily dissolve if you use hot water.

Step 3: To help the infusion of coffee grounds with water further, you can use a spoon to stir it up quickly. Stir until all bean grounds are moist or wet. If you purchased a freshly ground pack of beans, you will see foam forming on the surface when you stir it up.

Step 4: Now place the plunger and then the lid. Wait for the timer to go off before you push the plunger. If you have set it up to 4 minutes timer option, it will brew for 4 minutes. Afterwards, you can already pour yourself a steaming cup of coffee.
