Coffee Brewing & Preparation: Hacks, Flavors, and the Future with Brewspress
Coffee makes the world go ‘round — especially if you’re a busy mom balancing breakfast chaos, a college student cramming for finals, or anyone living the non-stop “go-go-go” lifestyle. But what happens when the coffee maker is out of reach? Scary Mommy – Mom Life Stories
You improvise.
My Favorite Hack (and Why It Works)
My go-to? A funnel with a paper towel perched over a cup or jar. It’s basically a makeshift pour-over — quick, efficient, and far less messy than you’d think. The trick? Once you add the grounds and pour hot water slowly, cover the funnel with a small dish to trap the heat. It keeps the temperature steady while the coffee drips through. When you’re done, just lift the funnel off and enjoy.
It’s scrappy, it’s clever, and best of all? It’s kind of fun.
Other Coffee Hacks You’ve Got to Try
- The Jar “French Press”: Mix grounds and hot water in a jar, let it steep, then strain with a sieve or even a clean sock (yes, people have done it).
- The Cowboy Brew: Straight into the pot of boiling water. Let the grounds settle, then sip carefully. Old-school, bold, and a little gritty.
- The Strainer Trick: Got a fine mesh strainer? Place grounds in, pour hot water slowly, and you’ve got a pour-over in disguise.
And let’s be real: at least these hacks are environmentally friendly — no disposable pods, no extra waste. LOL. College Study & Productivity Hacks
What Coffee Works Best With DIY Hacks?
Honestly, anything you’re craving. Go bold with a dark roast for those late-night cram sessions. Add a little fun with pumpkin spice or Halloween-inspired flavors this season. Or keep it refined with single-origin beans that bring out unique notes — chocolate, citrus, caramel.
That’s the beauty of these hacks: they work with whatever coffee you’ve got on hand.
But Here’s the Catch…
While hacks are cool, they’re also messy, inconsistent, and sometimes… well, desperate. Wouldn’t it be better to get the same creativity — but without the chaos?
Enter Brewspress.
