Steep, surely? Simmering for 20mins would ANNIHILATE much of the flavor.

    Coffee grinded for French press is really big, it needs a lot of time to extract the flavors, and after 20 minutes the temperature is just right.

    Simmering means you're probably putting it on a stove top trying to keep it just below boiling temp for 20 minutes.

    Is that what you're really doing? Or are you steeping?
