How can I minimize the amount of grounds at the bottom of my French press coffee? Whenever I brew coffee with a French press, I tend to get a significant amount of grind left near the bottom of the cup, making the last bit of coffee far less enjoyable - mostly regardless, it seems, of how finely I grind the beans. Is there any method or tool I can use to minimize the amount of grind left at the bottom of the cup?
I have the same problem, and these things definitely reduce it:


Grind more coarsely. Blade grinders are incapable of really doing this—they give you boulders and powder. But I've never been satisfied with the taste when I use coarse grounds— it's weak and lacks body.
Make sure the screen fits well and no grounds are squirting along the sides
Press gently, don't force it down with a lot of pressure
After pressing, wait a minute before decanting
Don't drink the dregs remaining at the bottom of the cup... unless you're like a friend of mine who relishes them.


Finally, if none of that works for you, try a different brew method. Paper filters are very good at keeping grounds out of your cup.
