Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz claims French Press makes the best-tasting home-brewed coffee. Here’s why he prefers it—and how to brew it right.

Ever wondered which coffee brewing method actually makes the richest, most flavorful cup at home? With so many devices—from pour-over cones to siphons to high-end espresso machines—it’s hard to know which one delivers the best everyday coffee. Some swear by precision tools like the AeroPress or V60, while others stick to simpler setups. But one surprising voice in the debate comes from the top: Howard Schultz, former Starbucks CEO, says the best coffee he’s had at home came from a French Press.
