French Press Coffee Maker ReviewsMarch 9th, 2010

Like we’ve mentioned before, the goal of this site is to not only provide a really easy guide for how to make your own french press coffee, but also to thoroughly review all of the different french presses, coffee beans, and accessories on the market so that you can make the best decision when it comes time to make your next coffee purchase.

Last week, we posted up our first coffee press review, and in the coming weeks, we will be pushing out a bunch more articles so that you’ll be able to see what’s available and use that information when you’re ready for an upgrade.

Or if you’re just getting started in the french press world, we hope that you can use our recommendations to choose the best french press possible for your needs. These things really do make the best coffee of any other coffee maker, and they’re also quick, reliable, and easy to clean.

In addition to the upcoming reviews, we have a long list of topics we want to write about, including some history, some lists of the best products in each category, and helpful recipes and tips for your next french press brewing session.

Stay tuned and let us know what you think!

Frieling Stainless-Steel 35-Ounce Coffee PressMarch 5th, 2010

Sometimes when cost isn’t as much of a concern, a stainless steel french press is the way to go. They simply can hold more coffee, and they’re much better insulated and easier to clean. Also, you can drop them all you want and not have to worry about them shattering everywhere.

This is really a beautiful coffee press. Very solid in the hands, very well built, and brews a mean pot of coffee. Additionally, it’s a really attractive press, one that looks great sitting on your dinner table as you sit around with your friends after a great dinner.

We recommend grabbing this one with a nice set of stainless steel accessories to round out your collection with a solid matching set. This will keep things looking good together and since everything is stainless steel, you don’t have to worry about it rusting or breaking on you later in life.

This truly is an investment and is worth every penny.

A Helpful Suggestion From Daniel in CanadaSeptember 13th, 2009

Got a really great email this weekend from Daniel in Canada, showing us an error in some of the text on the Measuring and Grinding The Beans page.

Hi, Thank you for helping me on how to use my press. When I was reading the section on grinding I noticed a slight error. You forgot the letter “P” in the following:  ”For the rest of us….”
So if you’re looking to be a traditionalist, get yourself some small cups and saucers and stick to the 4-6 cups of coffee with your french press. For the rest of us, go ahead and our your french press coffee into your 64 ounce mug and get on with your day.

Thanks Daniel for pointing that out, the change has been made!
