Using your Hydro Flask French Press is a breeze. First, remove the lid and add your preferred coffee grounds to the carafe. Then, pour hot water over the grounds, following your usual coffee - to - water ratio. Put the lid back on, but don't press down yet. Let the coffee steep for a few minutes according to your taste. After steeping, slowly press down the plunger to separate the grounds from the coffee. When pouring, hold the soft - touch handle for a comfortable grip and accurate pouring. As for maintenance, wash the French Press with warm, soapy water after each use. Make sure to clean the mesh filter thoroughly to keep it in good working condition. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could scratch the stainless - steel surface. Store it in a dry place when not in use.
