Better extraction of coffee since it steeps even with all the coffee. Go to Starbucks and order a cup of coffee from the French Press. Every Starbucks makes them. Ask for the same beans as they are drip brewing and compare the two different methods.

Septic-tanker here. A qwik rinse of water into a spent press then swish it into a strainer - dump into compost widget after it drains for a few minutes. Espresso grounds from knockbox to compost thingie.

Have you considered sending all your old coffee grounds to PNoon?
