“The Discovery of Insulin” 1921
At the beginning of the 20th century, a diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes was a death sentence. Scientists on the faculty of the University of Toronto discovered insulin; thus saving millions of lives around the world.@UofT https://t.co/EG6fHVQKPK pic.twitter.com/yweLJiNDI4— Standards Michigan (@StandardsMich) July 2, 2024

The French press is a popular device for brewing coffee, comprising a cylindrical beaker—or “jug”—fitted with a lid and plunger with a fine wire mesh filter. The plunger is used to drive the solid coffee particles to the bottom of the jug, separating these grounds from hot liquid above. When using the French press in this way, a growing permeable pack of ground coffee is pushed through hot water by applying force to the plunger. We use a combination of kitchen-based and laboratory experiments to determine the force required to push on the plunger as a function of the speed of the plunger and the mass of coffee used. We calculate that for the recommended preparation method, the maximum force is 32 N to complete the pressing action in 50 s. We propose that home coffee preparation provides a fun, low-cost, and relatable learning opportunity for students and for those who are interested in coffee science.
