Product Description

Often referred as a French Press or Plunger pot, this coffeemaker is the most elemental way of making coffee. It captures most of the oils found in the coffee bean to provide a rich-tasting, complex coffee. The French invented the press pot in approximately the 1850's. The first pots were metal, and functioned roughly like they do today pressing coffee grounds to the bottom of a metal pot, through a metal screen (or sometimes through a loosely woven material). In the 1930's, the Italians reinvented the French press pots, using first metal, and then glass. The pot has been refined over the years to the single-chambered French press pot we know today. Bodum is a leading French Press manufacturer in the USA and the Chambord is classically styled with modern glass, metal, and plastic materials to mimic those that became popular during the 1930's in Europe. How does it work? It's simple: Now take the plunge; slowly push the plunger down, to filter the coffee. Doing this slowly will keep most of the grounds under the filter of the plunger Pour the filtered coffee Makes up to 12 Cups Requires no electricity

Customer Reviews

Bodum Coffee Pot
We love this french press coffee maker. It's a 12 pot which looks big when you take it out of the box and is great when you make coffee and want multiple cups. The coffee is delicious! It won't stay warm long in this french press so we just drink it up.

perfect sized french cafetiere
great size for making plenty of coffee in the morning and stays fresher than filtered coffee.
