Can you make cappuccino with a French press?

Start by brewing a pot of French press coffee. If you want a vanilla-flavored cappuccino, add a dash of vanilla extract added to the grounds before brewing. Pour your coffee in a mug (or divide between multiple mugs). If you're using a handheld frother, heat your milk first, and then froth.

Can you use a milk frother as a French press?

Luckily, you can froth milk with your trusty French press just by heating it on the stove (or microwave, if that's your style), pouring it in, and pumping. Prepare the espresso with the Aeropress to your liking and then use the French press as a milk frother.

How many scoops of coffee should I put in a French press?

Whatever size of French Press you use, a good rule of thumb is to follow a 1:15 ratio of coffee to water. So for every 1 gram of coffee, add 15 grams of water, which converts to about 3 tablespoon of coffee for every 1 cup of water. Experiment from there to find the ratio that works for your taste.
