Water used for french press should be near boiling, but not steaming hot at 100 deg C and more, right?

I've found around 85 deg is a good temperature. You must have some sort of magic to still have water at above 100 deg btw.

LoL'ed yup no water above 100 deg! Anyways, if anyone is using Cuckoo, could pls confirm the temperature for the hot water pls? I dun hv thermostat, so unable to figure out the temp

You actually need to grind finer.  1:16  / 1:15  coffee to water ratio.
What kind of french press you have, does not matter at all. They are all the same.

I have the Mr DIY ,Bodum and Ikea french press.

but finer grind would make the ground coffee to go up, when pressing down the plunger?

For cold brew coffee, use cold water or room-temperature water?

I use room temp

My water filter does not have room temp, so i'll mix both cold/hot and wait until reach room temp then.

As for the container, do you put it in fridge or leave it at the kitchen counter?
