How to Brew a Cafetière

Check out our guide on how to best brew a cafetière, brought to you by our brilliant Andy! 

The cafetière is still one of the more popular methods of brewing coffee in the population at large. With nearly 100 years of history behind, it is inexpensive to buy and popular for its ease of use, just plonk some water, strain it out and there you go!


Whilst plonk and go has been the staple recipe for using cafetière’s, why should we be resigned to that being the extent of its abilities? Here in the Brew Bar, we have been experimenting for a while with different cafetière recipes to see how we can maximise this brewers’ potential with all the coffees we have on offer! Here’s a guide on how we think best to brew.
