Original Coffee & Tea Maker – Portable Stainless Steel Micro French Press – Patented 3-in-1 Technology for Hot, Iced & Cold Brew – Perfect for Home, Camping & Travel

Ok, I'm a coffee lover. I love to start the day with a hot, warm, sweet cup of well-made coffee and my Bodum French Press does great work, there's always coffee grounds in the coffee. I'm ok with that. It's part of the Coffee experience but I noticed this Coffeepress on Amazon and I was curious to try one out. Plusses: - It's compact, well-made and feels good in your hand, like a good product; Heavy and well-machined. - You can press excess water out of the thing while not getting grounds in your cup. - There's no way grounds can get through the fine filter holes. - You can stir it like a spoon full of delicious. - Both ends of the press screw off so you can press out the old coffee grounds into the bin when done. - The plunger screws down, holding the pressed grounds at the bottom. Not sure why that feature is there but it's a nice addition to functionality. Cons: - The coffee looks cloudy, more so than with my french press. Not a big deal but curious. - The grounds don't have much room to float around making good coffee but that's probably in my head. Takewaways: - Much like the many ways we can brew good tea, this is another way to brew coffee. - It's a well-made device that feels like a good-quality. - It makes coffee well, letting the grounds float around in the container to brew. Overall, I'm happy with it. I tend to use different ways to make coffee after years of refillable Keurig containers in a machine that was fooling me into thinking I was having good coffee. Keurig machines don't properly brew coffee because the water is only on the grounds for a second or two while a good cup of coffee should brew for 3-5 minutes based on your preferences. If you use a Keurig machine, you'll be surprised how much better your coffee tastes when properly brewed.

I love this little coffee press. It is so compact and easy to use. If used correctly it makes a fantastic cup of coffee that rivals my luxurious jura machine at home. It takes some time and patience and a tiny bit of finesse, but end result is worth it. I started with camerons organic ground coffee, Place the coffee in the bottom of the press and put it in a cup while the water is boiling. After the water boiled pour a small amount of hot water into the coffee grounds directly. Just enough to saturate the coffee grounds. Then place the plunger on and screw down. This was the hard part since the bottom part of the press is really hot but you just have to be careful.Next fill the cup up with the rest of the hot water and let it sit for about a minute. Then swirl the press in the hot water, then Depress the plunger about 7 times, Swirl and depressed the pressure about 7 more times, Keep the plunger depressed and lift the coffee press out of the water so it could drain and slowly release the plunger. The first couple times I got a lot of sludge. But after a while I learned to not depress the plunger so hard and the cup came out perfect. This is a fantastic travel press if your serious about coffee. Well made and superbly designed.

I'd never heard of it but when I saw it on Amazon while searching for a better French press, I was intrigued. My only pause was the price. I could get a MUCH larger press for the nearly $40 bucks but still, my curiosity got the better of me. My logic, like so many others no doubt was that I'd return it if it not only didn't work out that it didn't aspire to live up to all the positive reviews! Haha Well, I received it today. It appeared to be everything as advertised. It's so small - easy on kitchen space when using at home; easy on luggage space for those of us that travel with only a small carry-on. It seems very well made. Not only is it stainless steel but is a premium weight and feel. I'm grateful it came with an additional spring but how long springs last and where to get another one if/when both of mine wear out is still a question. I've not gotten into cold brew so can't speak to that yet but I'm glad for the added lid that will allow me to do so. The top of the plunger appears to be brass. I don't how that adds to functionality but I love the look and quality feel of it! The cover on the filter end doesn't look like it to me in the pictures but is a heavy, buttery soft silicon....Everything about this item is of premium quality so I'm a little less annoyed by the price ;). How does it work? It's small but might. It works EXACTLTY as advertised. I'd expected to get a good cup out of this would take some practice but am pleased to report it didn't. My brew, a deep rich alternative coffee-like tea, didn't look, feel or taste any different than it always has AND the result was achieved it in less time. My 16oz pour took really took no more than 5 minutes. The experience was almost magical. I didn't do it but certainly wanted to make more cups just to play with it! Haha. My gosh - A French Press that can be stored in a kitchen drawer or carried in a purse, backpack, or carry-on! I highly recommend this. It's expensive but the novelty, functionality and portability is worth something, right? I'm adding it to my gift list! That all said, we all know nothing is perfect so on balance here are my slightly less positive remarks: 1) Putting grounds in the receptacle posed an initial challenge not to over-spill onto the counter due the size of the receptacle relative to the size of my measuring spoon. Thankfully, I happened to have a narrower square-ish set I use to fish out powdered supplements from a travel bottle when on the road. I'm not really suggesting the press be modified because measuring spoons come in so many sizes it would be nearly impossible to accommodate all of them. I'm just sharing this tidbit for the benefit of other future owners so you're prepared to use/buy a narrower spoon to prevent spills. 2) I was surprised at a glaring oversight - no hard case! Whaaaat?! A product promoted for travel with no case? How could that be? So I spent literally hours scouring for a case that came as close as possible to the dimensions. I knew it wouldn't be perfectly molded to fit the press but I didn't want to risk breaking/bending/denting especially the plunger by throwing it in my bag unprotected. What I found exceeded my expectations. It's just big enough with a tiny bit of extra space to carry a small spoon or a few grounds. I used the foam piece that came with the press packaging hold the device level and steady in the case. Between that foam piece and netted pocket on the other side of the case, the press is held stable even when I shake it. Right now that small net pocket only has the French Press instructions and a wrist strap that came with the case but could hold a small baggy of enough grounds to make a couple cups to tide me over until I can locate a store at wherever I've traveled to. The manufacturer of this portable French press should absolutely produce and include a small, light, hardcase with custom molded foam on one side. My solution works great, but something custom-fit AND included would have been even better. Otherwise, GREAT JOB !!! I love it

Great tool for home or out camping. I’m a truck driver so this is perfect for when I make tea. Easy to clean and store away. Heck I got one for my GF and one each for my son and his wife.

Absolute piece of crap, flimsy, smells of oil, I would not make my worst enemy a coffee in this, do not waste your money! Also I couldn’t return product as it has to be returned to seller in China which you have to pay for and not Amazon so don’t rely on the return policy! Total scam!

I only have a kettle at work. Makes great coffee and tea

Perfect for one cup at a time

The product delivered is different from the one shown in the picture. It’s a fake one.
