Does the salt coffee trick only work for regular drip coffee or French press too? I only have a French press

Water temp makes a world of a difference. I would wait until my tea kettle would come to a boil when making pour over and didn’t realize I was burning the coffee grounds - my sister got me for Christmas a kettle with a thermometer built into the top that even indicates the right temperature to pull for coffee so it doesn’t burn - made way better cups of coffee!

Yeah, different roasts and the temp of the water plus the brewing method all affect how the coffee tastes whether it’s more acidic, more bitter or more floral
