I love the James Hoffman thumbnail knockoff 😂
I have a clever coffee dripper that pretty much does the same thing but more conveniently.
That said, I like James Hoffman's French press technique better, though it is a bit more of a pain.
This isn't so much a life hack as it is a great way to ruin French Press coffee.
The whole reason you don't use coffee filters is because the coffee bean oils are absorbed by the filter and you lose some of the caffeine and flavor.
If you want to use a coffee filter, just use a drip coffee machine. It's the same effect and you get additional features like being able to set it to brew on a schedule.
