First off G it's a Danish press and your coffee looks like brown water.
Did you push the lever all the way down? |

I love Frenchpress coffee, I have one for my loose tea as well. I use it for my Turkish Peppermint and Chinese black and green teas and it couldn't be better!

Correct!! Ideally, 200F. Like others have said, that looks watery. I like my coffee strong enough to grab the spoon out of your hand and beat you with it. Then taunt your mother and talk smack.

Well made coffee is a must in the morning. Do you roast your own beans? Small batch fresh roasted beans will kick the flavor meter up 100%? I have the same mugs and love them. By the way you're being very kind about Tim Hortons. They serve what I would term as a "CLO" or (coffee like object). It's really just swill. No offence to Timmies lovers.

Love the French Press! Just pressed a cup of this new bag. Nothing better than a fresh bag of beans!
