Smooth and Strong... July 27, 2007

If you are looking for the best coffee without going out, this is the coffee pot for you! I experienced my first cup of "french pressed" coffee in San Francisco and was thrilled to find this Bodum 12 cup. It only makes four big cups which is plenty for two people. Easy to use and clean ..

Excellent with or without power... June 22, 2007
6 out of 6 found this review helpful

We've been upgrading our hurricane kit this year (in Florida) to include a small butane stove and a new coffee-production method. We had thought about a Melita drip maker, but found this Bodum press, instead. Excellent choice!

Whether you heat the water to boiling on your regular stove or over an alternate source, once you steep the grounds and then press, the coffee is marvelous, and stays warm for as long as it takes you to drink the pot. After 2004 when we had 3 hurricanes here and only instant coffee, this will be a big improvement.

We still use our Cuisinart brewer during the week, but this Bodum is now our weekend coffee-maker. Boiling the water takes a bit longer than just flipping the switch on an automatic brewer, but the coffee tastes much better with the press. And if you have lost your electricity but still can boil water, it is a lifesaver!

Great Coffee! June 16, 2007

I have had my press for some time now and I love it. Coffee stays warm for about 2 hours, after that amount of time it needs to be reheated in the microwave. I really love how easy it is to clean. It comes out of the dishwasher looking like new every time. Although it does drip a bit, that only serves as a reminder to slow down and enjoy the delicious coffee it produces. I really love the look of this press and the fact that I cannot break it.

Finally a french press I can't break! May 28, 2007

This is my fourth, and hopefully last, french press coffemaker. I've been very happy with all of the previous ones I owned, but they all had one flaw: They were made of glass. It turns out glass is quite easily breakable. In addition, when broken, glass is rather sharp and pointy.

French press number 1 nearly removed my ring finger when it went.
French press number 2 tried to do me in with a slash across the wrist.
French press number 3 jumped off the counter when I walked by and tried to scare me to death by exploding on the floor behind me.

I'm pretty sure I could throw french press number 4 (this one) at a brick wall and only cause minor damage.

As far as coffemaking goes, this pot provides excellent results. I was very pleased to find this has a slightly finer filter than the glass ones I had before, resulting in less sediment at the bottom of the cup.

This is not a thermos... it won't keep coffee warm for 5 days. But, it does keep it warm for an hour or two, which is longer than you want to have coffee sitting for anyway!
