大意是这样的，因为这种咖啡的做法没有用滤纸来过滤咖啡，所以这个咖啡里面的挥发油会浸出得比较多，这种挥发油里面含有某些物质对健康有负面影响。可正因为这种挥发油，咖啡的味道才会香浓。
Note: The oily substances in coffee beans, called diterpenes, contain cafestol and kahweol. Since French press filters allow more oils to pass through, higher amounts of cafestol and kaweol get into your coffee compared to other brewing methods that use paper filtration, which is why some people wonder if French press coffee is bad for your health. According to Stefani Sassos, MS, RDN, CDN, Registered Dietitian at the Good Housekeeping Institute, “The good news is that the research suggests that it takes five cups per day to show an increase in serum cholesterol and triglycerides.” Sassos’ advice? “Save French press coffee for special occasions and consume in moderation.”
唉！就这么点儿嗜好，还让不让人活了？
