  • Love this. Own Chemex, Bialetti, and Bodum French Press.
Size: 34oz Color: Black
I received a bent metal rod in my first version of this which came as a gift for the holidays, so I returned it and instead ordered the larger size shown here. Despite those issues, this thing is fantastic. Couldn't be easier and makes a wonderful cup of coffee. I'm one of those "hates starbucks, drinks it if he has to." guys that everyone thinks is too picky. Honestly, I believe everyone is one cup of expertly crafted espresso away from never drinking that crud again. Saying "I'm on hunt for the best steak in town." or "Best glass of wine." is no different than "best cup of coffee." and where I'm from in a medium city in the rustbelt, it's like pulling teeth to find anything close to an Intelligentsia or a top shelf coffee bar. Home methods have been my saving grace, from owning a beautiful chemex, to a stove top Bialetti. But honestly nothing beats the speed and flavor of this guy. Chemex requires filtration preparation (my model requires you fold the filters up, no biggie but kind of a hassle when crunched for time.) and the stove top is essentially a version of a percolator coffee which requires so working to get just right in terms of flavor. This french press nails it though. It won't last forever like the Bialetti, but you fresh grind three scoops (I use four I like it a little heavier.) and then fill with just under boiling water, 1 cup for 1 scoop. I go 4 scoops/3cups. If you aren't afraid to eyeball it a little bit, you can just fill the water up to the white logo box imprinted on the glass, which turns out to be right around the right amount of water. Put the lid back on, wait four minutes-ish, I'm not super strict about it because I'm often in a hurry at home, and then press the rod down slowly. Now all your grounds are stuck on the bottom under the metal filter attached to the rod, and atop the filter is only liquid. Delicious, brown molasses caffeine-laden nectar of the gods. Pour, enjoy. The small size version of this is TOO SMALL to fill a normal sized coffee cup, just a fair warning. I suppose its handy for travel. I now own a small and the 34-ounce and can't imagine a useful situation for the small version. If you drink a full cup, or more than a cup, buy the 34-ounce. You won't regret it. The difference between this brew method and the chemex is the lack of a paper filter. Paper filtration removes some of the oils from the coffee before you drink it, which can shave some of the high or low notes off the flavor of the drink. Still, it is healthy to use a paper filter because it removes cafestol, an ingredient in coffee that for those sensitive to it can impact the way your body handles cholesterol and the way you liver handles it as well. So paper filtration is good, but can alter flavor slightly. The Chemex is fantastic and due to it's design vents gasses out of the brew as you pour in water, so a bitter cup never really happens. Here, the french press simply uses a metal filter mesh and a metal plate with holes in it to push the grinds down to the bottom, leaving the coffee on top. You get a sweeter, bolder, more syrupy/velvety coffee out of a french press, because you retain the oils from the beans. Clean up is a breeze with the bodum, it's dishwasher safe and you simply turn the plunger rod to unscrew the mesh disc from the handle to clean each layer of it. It honestly couldn't be easier, I hope it doesn't change. The one pain I'll mention... disposing of the grounds is kind of a hassle as you are left with watery liquid at the bottom and a much of old grinds like you would find in a filter, only now, no filter. If you don't want to dump grinds down the drain, and you shouldn't as it's going to build up in your system, then you have to sort of shake and tap to get them out. My garbage can is not my favorite place to hover and hold my breathe while tapping grinds out, and they can really cling in there. So I would love to see the addition of a simple tool built specifically for this, a small stir/lever that can be used and ships with the product. I only suggest this as it is not recommended to use metal tools to clean the inside or stir inside as it can chip the glass, only plastic is recommend. Given that Bodum makes this piece, they could easily have the tool fabricated and shipped with the unit. Def a keeper. ... show more

  • Best press out there, Hands down. Conveniece, quality, portability, and ease of cleaning, all at a fantastic price
Size: 34oz Color: Red
If you are a coffee lover, and have never pressed your own, you really owe it to yourself to try this out. I was curious as to why the coffee I made at home taste SO GROSS compared to what they offered at the coffee shops. After seeing Alton Brown's Good Eats: True Brew episode, I decided to take the plunge and made the switch from an automatic drip. I was astounded at the rich, bold, complex, and yet not bitter taste I was able to produce at home. Another great thing about a french press which receives little acknowledgement: you can make exactly the amount of coffee you need, without its quality suffering. Think about this for a minute: What if you wanted to make 10oz of coffee in a drip? You put in 10 oz of water, two scoops of coffee, Turn it on, the water heats and drips through the grounds for 2 minutes. How much flavor is going to be in there? Make 50 oz, the coffee grounds get brewed for 10 minutes. How is that going to taste? Not good, I assure you. With the press, the coffee brews for exactly the right amount of time, every time regardless of the amount of water or grounds. This is my fourth Brazil model french press. I really hope they never stop making these, because I will be buying them as long as they are available. Here is what sets this press apart from the crowd, but first: ***WARNING! if you plan to microwave your water in this, it is ABSOLUTELY necessary to put something in with the water in order to create some nucleation sites where the water can boil. I use a chopstick which I've cut to the height of the beaker. You risk serious burns if you do not do this, as the water may become superheated above boiling, and then violently boil over when disturbed.*** 1. Microwavable: There are no metal parts on the beaker/handle assembly. This makes using the press so convenient and simple. a.) fill beaker with water b.) heat water filled beaker in microwave c.) grind beans while water heats d.) put grounds into press & cover e.) wait four minutes f.) press down plunger g.) pour & enjoy. I submit to you that using this french press is no more complex or time consuming than any other coffee brewing method (save for the Kuerig, but don't get me started.) 2. Price: I only saw a couple other presses which were cheaper, and their low review scores steered me away. People seem to indicate that the others have a plastic beaker and/or low quality parts. In my opinion, it's not worth saving $5 if there's a fair chance of receiving an inferior product. 3. Easy to clean: Rinse out the beaker with hot water, spend a few seconds scrubbing off the screen/plunger assemble with a soft plastic bottle brush, and voila, you're finished. Once a week, I run everything through the dishwasher. The screen/press/plunger assembly unscrews with no tools needed for when you would like to dishwash, or more thoroughly clean it. 4. Durable: The glass is made of borosilicate glass, which seems to be some sort of Pyrex. More than once, I have stupidly rinsed it off in cold water immediately after use. This would shatter most kinds of glass. No problem here. The reason I'm on my fourth one is because I've broken two by dropping them. Once in a stainless steel sink, another time I tipped one on my granite counter-top. By its nature, the screen must be delicate, but I've never had one wear out. As I said above, use a soft bristle bottle brush to clean it, and you should have no problems. I saved the two plunger assemblies from my broken sets as backups because they remained in great shape, even after a couple of years of use. 5. Portable: This press is exactly how big it needs to be, and no larger. Do you really want an big drip maker sitting out on your counter taking up valuable counter space? Or even worse, a behemoth of a Kuerig which can only make one cup at a time? With this Bodum, just stash it in the cupboard when not in use. Try that with a machine for a few weeks and see how you like it. If you decide to buy one, I'll offer up these few tips: 1. Instructions say to stir before pushing down. Instead, after you put the grounds in the water, press down on the plunger, but only enough to fully submerge the grounds. Move the plunger up and down a hair. This will cause all the grounds to mix around, and avoid the pitfall of using a utensil in the press, which the instructions say may scratch the glass and potentially make it easier to break. 2. Perfect brewing temperature is 195 - 205. First, read my ***WARNING*** above. To reach that temperature, bring the water to a full boil in the microwave (put a chopstick or something in there to avoid super-heating the water.) remove the press from the microwave, and allow it to rest for 30-45 seconds on the counter. After this time, the water should not be too hot, and you can add the grounds. 3. Look up the "Alton Brown True Brew" recipe. There are some fantastic tips about beans and brewing perfectly suited for beginners. 4. I'm okay with it, but If the ultra-fine particles that make if through the screen bother you, they can be mostly eliminated. Instead of pouring straight into your drinking mug, pour the coffee into a different cup first. Something with some texture, like ceramic or paper works best. While the coffee is cooling down to a drinkable temperature, most of the fine particles will sink to the bottom. Pour your cup off into your drinking mug slowly and carefully. Stop when you see you're on that last 1/4 ounce or so and the particles are clearly visible. In conclusion, I'd say that purchasing one of these is a great investment. I've saved hundreds of dollars by forgoing my morning coffee shop stop. Also, I never have to suffer through a fetid cup of drip machine coffee at home/work again. Check my review history and you'll see that this is far and away the longest I've ever written. It speaks to how much I believe in the product. (and I want people to buy them so it's never discontinued) ... show more

  • BEST EVER, MUST HAVE!
Size: 34oz Color: Black
I didn't know how much I needed one of these until I met the Bodum Brazil 8 cup French press. I know someone who has this exact model, in red. One morning...she got up at 6 AM, walked to the coffee roaster down the street, bought a pound of coffee, and brewed it in the French press for me to try. That was some of the BEST coffee I have EVER tasted! It was addiction at first sip. I proceeded to religiously brew French press coffee EVERY DAY after that! It became a pick-me-up ritual: no matter how crummy I felt, how bad my day was, or whatever else was going wrong in life, I still looked forward to the simplicity of brewing an excellent cup of coffee in this French press. When I moved away, and I had to give back the French press to its rightful owner, I missed it SO MUCH that I *finally* caved and bought the same coffeemaker for myself! This thing makes tea, coffee, or any other beverage you can mix with liquid and strain. As I write this review, I am enjoying looseleaf white tea brewed in the French press. Features: - It is compact & travel ready- take it anywhere, it fits in a bag - Light weight, not bulky (my laptop is heavier) - It sits nicely on a computer table so you can write Amazon reviews AND drink your coffee at the same time, lol (vs. automatic drip machines, which are bulky and have to sit near an electrical outlet) - Auto drip & Keurigs also produce coffee with a FRACTION of the flavor profile and complexity in comparison to French press. You can ACTUALLY TASTE the quality in locally roasted or single origin beans using a French press - It seemingly makes a stronger coffee than any other coffee maker I have used...I find French press coffee to be more "energizing" than automatic drip. Due to the fact that the coffee beans remain in contact with the liquid, I am guessing it may be more caffeinated? - It does NOT need ANY sort of filters! By comparison, auto drip, Keurig, and pour over methods all require a filter of some sort that must be re-purchased regularly - This is an EXTREMELY simple machine - It is easy to clean- just two parts, a carafe and a pusher - NO electricity, NO moving parts, NO batteries - It takes mere MINUTES to make any beverage, just pour water in the carafe and push. That's it! - I also use this to make ICED teas and coffees. The entire French press can sit in the fridge for days at a time - It pours nicely (no dripping, dribbling, or spilling) - It filters well (I get very little sediment in the cup, if any) - It keeps temperature - Does not crack, like some glass carafes will - Withstands abuse - It's a very attractive minimal piece that would look striking in any kitchen - Lower price point than other coffeemakers - You can watch your tea leaves or coffee grounds brew! Bottom line - if you like tea or coffee, you have a use for this French press. It stands out in quality, simplicity, and price in comparison to the other French press models out there. In fact...my mom went out and bought this SAME EXACT French press after mine came in the mail from Amazon. Everyone who tries this French press agrees- it's simply PERFECT and a MUST HAVE! ... show more

  • Makes Great Coffee, Super Easy to Use
Size: 34oz Color: Black
The Bodum Brazil 34 oz French Press is a total game-changer for my morning routine. It brews rich, flavorful coffee, and it’s really easy to use—even if you’re new to French press brewing. Here’s how I use it: Add coarsely ground coffee (about 1–2 tablespoons per 6 oz of water). Pour in hot water just off the boil. Stir, place the lid on with the plunger up, and let it steep for 4 minutes. Slowly press the plunger down—and enjoy your coffee! The design is sleek and simple, and the glass holds up well to daily use. It feels sturdy, and the plastic base and handle make it easy to pour without worrying about burning yourself. My only complaint? Cleanup can be kind of a pain. You have to scoop or rinse out the wet coffee grounds, which can get messy, especially if you’re in a rush. But honestly, the quality of the coffee makes it worth the extra minute or two. If you’re looking for an easy, no-fuss way to make really good coffee at home, this French press is a great choice. I use it daily and still love it. ... show more

  • Better price than the other Bodum unit
Size: 34oz Color: Black
This unit is a good twenty bucks cheaper (at time of writing) than the other bodum french press of the same size. It's not nearly as pretty as the other one is. However, I assume it's just as functional. It's a nice glass container, with a mix of high end plastic and metal components and feels very high quality. As soon as it arrived I just had to put it to some use. I'm from the NW, so I am surrounded by coffee culture all the time. We have our favorite coffee shops/stands/etc and my wife used to be a barista for a fairly high end bakery and coffee establishment. That said, we really have no experience with french presses. In fact, despite our influence and her experience we seldom produce coffee at home as it's just so easy to go to one of a multitude of great coffee stands. This is expensive however and we've been examining ways to reduce those costs at home. We know, from friends and known coffee "connoisseurs" that french presses are the preferred method for getting good extraction while retaining the oils essential to a good cup of coffee. And are versatile enough to produce coffees to varying tastes. The unit comes with a little booklet of basic use and instructions. It suggests a tablespoon of coarsely ground beans, per 4oz "cup" of water. The unit comes with it's own measuring spoon, which is a nice touch. It suggests using very hot but not boiling water and let it "brew" for 4 minutes prior to consumption. I followed those directions exactly, with some crappy beans I've had on hand for several months. I can't say it's the best cup of coffee I've ever had. However, those beans came in a giant bag from costco and have sat open for a few months. All things considered, it was a good cup of coffee and certainly better than the same beans produce from our drip brewing unit. The screen itself does a surprisingly good job of filtering out the coffee and sending it to the bottom of the pot. A tip to reduce the overall bitterness of the brew, don't let the coffee sit in the press with the beans as this will increase bitterness over time. What I love about this, it takes under 10 minutes to produce a nice hot good cup of coffee. This pot is big enough to fill up 2 travel coffee cups (the bigger stainless/plastic varieties you buy anywhere) so me and the wife have something as we head out the door. It probably also brews tea nicely, so the wife will be trying that out soon. TL;DR: Well made. Works good. 4 minute brew time, 1 tbsp per 4oz according to it's brief but included instructions. Under 10 mins to brew enough to fill 2 travel mugs. Recommended for sure. ... show more

  • MAKES WONDERFUL COFFEE!
Size: 34oz Color: Black
I researched the different types of these and they can be very affordable such as this one or very expensive. I decided this one was the best buy for the amount of cups it makes. Great Coffee Maker that makes delicious coffee. Oprah's favorite type of coffee maker. I just love it. Broke the pot to my nearly new Braun and instead of ordering another glass pot I decided to try this. It is affordable, well made, easy to use and makes the best coffee. I was not sure if the glass carafe could go in the microwave as I did not see that on the directions, so, I ordered the heavy glass Pyrex 1 quart measuring cup to make things even easier. I am always looking for ways to simplify and make things easier to do. For those who may not have used one of these before, The measuring cup filled to the top, goes in the microwave to boil for 4 or 5 minutes and then pour in carafe. It is the exact amount needed to fill the carafe. Be sure to put the 3 measuring spoons of coffee (comes with coffee maker) in carafe BEFORE adding the boiling water and stir the coffee and water. Let set for 4 minutes with the top on, plunger up. Then push the plunger thing down slowly to the bottom after 4 minutes is up. Coffee is ready to serve. NOTE: If you decide to use this particular measuring cup, when it is full and you first start to pour the water in the carafe, mine tends to spill over for some reason. I fixed that this by making sure the pouring spout on the measuring cup when pouring in the carafe is lined up with the pouring spout on the carafe when pouring the water in and that way it does not spill over. Just go slow. One other thing. This is suppose to be an 8 cup coffee Maker. I found it makes exactly 3 mugs for us. I guess standard mugs are larger than their "cups" . Keep this in mind , especially if you drink out of a mug and not a tiny cup, when deciding on the size of coffee press you buy. Blessings. ... show more

  • Works great but not for long
Size: 51oz Color: Black
A pretty basic and simple french press, but it does the job. I bought the 51 oz version to give us the flexibility to make a larger amount of coffee for guests when needed, but it does make it less convenient for brewing just a few cups. Two cups or less and you end up not fully pressing the coffee just due to the overall size of the canister in the length of the press part. If the press had just a bit longer of push rod it would be perfect for any size of brew, but as it is, this thing needs at least three or four cups in it to work properly. Update: Broke after about 2 months of daily use. Bodum thinks cheap plastic is apparently good enough for the structural connection where the push rod connects to the filter plate... and they're wrong. ... show more
