Love my coffee!
Love this French press! First of all, the brass accents alone are very aesthetically pleasing to the eye, and the taste of coffee has forever changed for me.
I had never used a French press and did not know how to use one, but after research I finally settled on this one. I found that not only are they easy, the coffee tastes so much better. I actually purchased a stainless steel one after this one to keep coffee warmer longer (as this is the ONLY drawback - Coffee does not stay warm long) but I ended up sending it back - while it stayed warmer a tad bit longer, I like the taste of coffee better from glass than I do from steel. That’s just my preference, everyone is different. I also want to say that everyone (including instructions) tell us to coarse ground the beans as this helps the coffee to stay out of the filter system, but I find that grinding beans finer just makes the coffee taste better. I don’t get grounds in my coffee as the filter system works very well. That’s also my own preference.
I won’t bore you with instructions as everyone has them in their reviews already. Enjoy!
