  My French Press Doesn't let fine particles get through, besides you shouldn't be grinding fine particles. Perhaps your grinder needs service?

 
Not sure what you mean... that it should be a coarse grind for French Press? I use the grinder set to the finest grind for French Press - given that it's a relatively cheap Bodum unit, that's not particularly fine.

A French Press requires a coarse grind, so using a fine grind should be the problem. A fine grind is for Espresso not for a French Press.

Yeah, I'm aware of that but as I say, my grinder is kind of entry level - its idea of a fine grind is a better grinder's idea of coarse. Still, I'll play around with the grind setting; maybe it is too fine at present. I think it's possible I may just prefer Aeropress though.

  An Aeropress is good but uses a paper filter, a French Press uses a metal mesh filter that lets the oils, etc. get through which tastes better to me.

 
You can buy a metal mesh filter for Aeropress.

I've loved this free web series for a long time. So many personalities we all know, and so much coffee-related stuff!

2am and I'm wanting another coffee. Think I'll just need to calm this craving...

Did you wake up at 2am or are you still up? I have never woken up at 2 craving coffee. Usually because I've only been asleep about an hour or so.
I have woken up about that time and had time just break. I was convinced it was about 11am and that I had missed class but I couldn't remember when my alarm was supposed to be set for or when class even was. That was an interesting night. XD

I was awake at the time,

I did have the 2am coffee. To make up the difference I cancelled my late night listening session but ended up laying in bed staring at the ceiling. O_O.


Now it's 3:30am, I'm wide awake on my phone typing whilst cleaning my vape gear with nothing but a tiny night lamp on.

That looks lovely! Do you go to a cafe of do you have a no smoking sign in your kitchen?

I'm lucky enough to have a former barista champ make mine for $1

Looks like the former barista champ knows just what to do. I on the other hand will have to make my own and it won't be that pretty.

Nah, just fill your mouth with beans, and start masticating...........
