Description
- Material: Plastic. This makes the coffee plunger lightweight, shatterproof, and potentially more affordable than a glass carafe version. However, plastic carafes might not retain heat as well as glass.
- Capacity: 600 Ml (approximately 20 fluid ounces). This is a good size for brewing 2-4 cups of coffee, suitable for a small group or individual use.
- Brewing Method: A French Press uses a full immersion brewing method. You add coarse ground coffee and hot water to the carafe, let it steep, and then plunge the filter down to separate the coffee grounds from the brewed coffee.
Here are some additional features that might be included but aren’t mentioned in the description:
- Filter: Most French Presses have a mesh filter made of metal (like stainless steel) or nylon. A mesh filter is reusable and eco-friendly compared to paper coffee filters.
- Plunger Mechanism: The plunger typically consists of a rod attached to a filter disc. Pressing the plunger down pushes the grounds to the bottom, separating them from the brewed coffee.
- Carafe Design: The plastic carafe might have measurement markings on the side for easy water addition.
- Lid: The lid might be made of plastic or stainless steel and may have an opening to add coffee grounds and hot water.
