Longer French press method I saw on YT and tried just for the hell of it.

It worked great! Like really great. Wanted to share as I was surprised. Also wonder if FP fans were already aware of this.

    I believe it is impossible to over extract with simple immersion…so it kinda doesn’t matter how long you let it sit, just that it be long enough (ie, the usual ~4 min)?

    Hoffman’s tip about breaking up the crust and removing the “scum” — then letting it settle for a while longer — was the big game-change for me.
