The frame and lid, made of steel, undergo several chrome plating processes to obtain a durable shiny surface that will last for many years of intense use. The glass beaker is made of heat resistant Borosilicate glass. The French press system has always been the simplest and ultimate way of brewing an excellent cup of coffee. Using fresh coarse ground beans with water between 195-205 degrees Fahrenheit (92-96 degrees Celsius) brings out the very best in all types of coffee.
Step 1- Coffee
For each 1.25-deciliter/4-ounce cup, put 1 rounded tablespoon or 1 scoop of coarse-ground coffee into the pot.
Use only coarse ground coffee. Fine grind can clog the filter and create high pressure.
Step 2- Water
Pour hot (not boiling) water into the pot. Leave a minimum of 2.5 centimeters/1 inch of space at the top. Stir the brew with a plastic spoon.
Metal spoons can scratch or chip the glass beaker and cause breakage.
Step 3- Press
Place the plunger unit on top of the pot. Turn lid to close off the pour spout opening. Do not press down. Let the coffee brew for at least 4 minutes. Hold the pot handle firmly, with the spout turned away from you, then using just the weight of your hand, apply slight pressure on top of the knob to lower the plunger straight down into the pot. Lowering the plunger slowly with minimal pressure produces best results.
Step 4- Enjoy!
Turn the lid to open the pour spout and then pour coffee.
Unscrew the filter assembly and clean the plunger unit after each use. All parts are dishwasher-safe.
3- Part Stainless Steel Filter
Spiral Plate
The spiral plate keeps the filter mesh in place and makes sure that water goes through but no ground coffee. The flexible spiral provides a universal fit taking into account the manufacturing tolerances of glass jugs.
Filter Plate
The filter mesh is a key component to the French Press Coffee Makers. It separates the ground coffee beans from the water after the brewing has stopped.
Cross Plate
The cross plate holds the mesh in place together with the spiral plate.
