I love my proper coffee. For years I have used a cheap, basic, electric coffee maker, the type where you fill a tank, then the heated water bubbles up to drip into a filter with the finely ground coffee, then into a jug, with the hotplate under it. It auto shuts itself off, after 20 minutes.
I make two coffees at a time, drinking one, the other keeps warm in the jug, on the hotplate. If I forget the second, and it gets a little cool, I sometimes boost it in the micro for a few seconds. Overdo it and it goes bitter.
I'm thinking to try a French Press, but I'm wondering how you keep the second cup warm, the 20 minutes, whilst drinking the first cup?
