Lanarkian: Smart looking cafetière from a good brand. Holds 4 decent sized cups and keeps reasonably hot for about an hour. Works with a number of brands of filter coffee with no problems, very little coffee grounds left in the bottom of the cup since the filter is quite fine. After two years of use the only negatives are that it needs to be well heated with boiling water before refilling to make the coffee, and the filter can be difficult to clean properly. Definitely worth buying, but watch out for a good price offer.

acjd: We use it almost daily for brewing coffee. Excellent quality, looks great. The only thing I don’t like is filter/plunger component is not all stainless steel.

FYIOhio: Do not waste any money on a glass coffee press once you have this. The walls are thick but not heavy. Well insulated. Great for 2 cups of coffee.

David H: Står ofta som kaffebryggare men vi har i tio år använt den som den perfekta tebryggaren, håller drycken varm även om man är sen till frukosten.

OC Doc: I've long preferred the taste of French press coffee to that produced by drip machines. Although I've had a Bodum Chambord press at home for over a decade, two problems limited my use of the press: 1) If more than one mug of coffee is made, the coffee cools down very quickly through the glass walls of the Chambord; 2) I have broken three Chambord FRAMES (plastic) yet the glass beaker survived...pointing to a weakness in the plastic frame. Maybe expansion of the glass when filled with hot water--or in the dishwasher-- stretched the plastic. I bought the Chambord from Starbucks back when they made colored plastic frames. Bodum replaced the frame once. I now have a complete but unsafe Chambord (with cracked frame AGAIN) and a spare beaker from an earlier plastic Chambord, which was a gift (that makes three cracked plastic frames in all, and no broken beakers).

Two years ago, I gave a steel Friesling press to friends who own a boat and whose owner is a daily coffee drinker. They were pleased with it. At the time, the thermal properties were less important than having it be unbreakable for marine use.

My year old Bosch drip machine is flimsy, makes so-so coffee, and takes...

Ms. Regie: This was my first venture into French press coffee after being totally dissatisfied with the inconsistent batches from the drip machines and I am quite impressed! This is definitely the size to get for 2 or more drinkers, I couldn't imagine having a smaller size. I've actually noticed a SLIGHT oil slick on top of my coffee affirming that I'm getting ALL that the coffee bean had to offer! Grinding the beans right before brewing also helps of course.

As for the amount of coffee to use, the instructions work out to be twice the amount you would use in a drip machine ie: 1T per 4oz. cup is replaced with 2T for same amount - thus creating a more robust, richer tasting coffee. Yes it takes alot of ground coffee to make French pressed coffee, but it's worth it for the taste I think. For this pot I find 12 oz. ground, measured in cup measure, gives a rich enough flavor - but experimentation is the key here.

As for the whole process, it gets quite effortless once you get the steps down and the timing correct. Here is a quick run down that I use: put the kettle on, grind the coffee, when the kettle whistles pour 2" into pot to prewarm it, put lid on in closed position, measure...
