A coffee press is part of the brewing system and can be used with a brewing kettle and coffee grounds to brew coffee. While not required, it can be used to help with the coffee brewing process. Similar to a tea infuser, the advantage of using a coffee press is that the coffee intensity will never be weak; it prevents completing the brewing process until the coffee has reached a "just right" state. This also locks in the completed intensity of the coffee for the entire amount brewed.

Coffee grounds can be removed from the packet or tin of coffee first, or the packet/tin can be directly PUT inside the coffee press to measure out a single dose. Water is boiled inside of a brewing kettle on a heat source. Once boiling, water can be POURed into the coffee press. After a short time, about a minute or two, use PRESS {PRESS} to complete the brewing process. The finished coffee can then be POURed into an appropriate drink container.

For detailed information on how to use a coffee press with coffee grounds and a brewing kettle, see the main brewing system article.
