There's a sweet spot somewhere between four minutes and 210 degrees with a course grind that makes a perfect French press coffee. It's a spot that Greg Suekoff, the new assistant general manager at Aina Gourmet Market has finessed, since he started working in cafe at age 17. It's also a mark I rarely hit with my coffee maker. But Suekoff is a champion barista who's entered regional, national and international competitions in DC, Orlando, New York, Charlotte, Atlanta, Los Angeles and Seoul, so he probably knows something I don't. He earned the title "Ultimate Barista" from the Ultimate Barista Challenge by winning in Latte Art in New York. Since then he's placed first in all of their competition categories: Latte Art, Espresso Cocktail, Best of Brew and Espresso Frappe.more
