Perfect for extracting your coffee's aromatic oils and subtle flavors, this 8-cup coffee press can hold up to 34 ounces. The ultra-light, heat-resistant borosilicate glass beaker is encased in colorful plastic, which adds style to your kaffeeklatch as well as adds protection to the glass. It's complemented by a 3-part stainless steel plunger with a fine mesh filter--allowing the flavor of the coffee to be delivered direct to your cup and not absorbed by a paper filter. All parts are dishwasher safe.
To make the perfect pot of French press coffee, add 1 rounded tablespoon of coarsely ground coffee for each 4-ounce cup of water. After pouring boiling water over the coffee, give the grounds a stir with a plastic spoon, then allow your coffee to brew in the press for 4 minutes pressing down on the plunger.

Makes Excellent Coffee, but...,
By
This review is from: Bodum Bean French Press Coffeemaker with Locking Lever Lid, 8-Cup (34-Ounce) (Kitchen)
This is my first french press. My sister and brother in law only use these. So we went to visit them on vacation and coffee has never been the same. I tossed the drip crap we had and bought one of these from my local Sur La Table for $30. It makes the best tasting coffee ever! I do not use coarse ground as it states. That was a little weak for us. I use fine grounds, making an almost espresso strong coffee. I am now making home made lattes for great money savings!
Now the one con-the lid. Yes, it is cool to have a no spill feature, but you can't clean inside the lid! I can forsee some nasty growth in there sometime in the future. We use ours everyday. I thought about putting vinegar and hot water in and pouring that out to help, but then I have to be REALLY sure to get all that outta there before brewing again. Not worth the hassle for me. I plan on returning this model tomorrow for one that just uses the beaker to pour and not some plastic part. Plus, staying away from the plastic is better for us in the long run anyhow.

Bodum Bean French Press Coffee Maker,

This review is from: Bodum Bean French Press Coffeemaker with Locking Lever Lid, 8-Cup (34-Ounce), Red (Kitchen)
This coffee maker is an improvement over the previous Bodum French Press that I have. This one keeps the coffee warmer for a longer period of time. It has a special rubber rim in the lid that closes the pot more tightly.

Very Happy with My Press,

Pros: This is my first French Press and I am very happy with it. The lid was a bit tough to get off the first time(right out of the box);however,once I figured out how it worked, I haven't had a problem with it. It seems just as sturdy as other French Presses I have looked at in stores. The directions do state not to force the plunger down but to let the weight/gravity of your hand push it down gently. I have had no problems at all with the plunger. If/when this press breaks, I will put out the extra money for an insulated press. The fact that the coffee may not stay as warm as some people desire is not inherent to just this press but to this type of press in general.
Cons: It states it makes eight cups--mine only holds 4 standard cups of water. Perhaps they consider a serving as 1/2 cup:-) Over all I am very pleased with this purchase and would recommend it to my friends. I would give this press as a gift:-) 2115|RKP7JRUKLQGC0;2115|R2I6P8JLFA02AJ;2115|R28Q8PQMMHOFDJ;
