French Press Coffee Maker(1L)-Double Walled Large Coffee Press with 2 Extra Free Replacement Screens-Enjoy Granule-Free Coffee, Stylish Rust Free Kitchen Accessory-Stainless Steel

Wow!! I have had a few glass beaker style presses I broke every single one! Most presses are smaller than this one too. My daughter works at a major coffee house chain and she says this is the best press she has ever seen! I have had a few small ones from that coffee shop. We do use their coffee she grinds it at work to French press grind. I could do it ever time from the beans but we go through a bag so quick I don’t find a difference at all! Easy to buy a bag of coffee and ask them to French press grind. I have used finner ground coffee and with the two screen system it is just fine! (A special holiday coffee we enjoyed was already ground and it was fine! Worked just as good) I find the French press grind gives more flavor and is easier to work with and rinse out. I am not easy on things they must be tough! After I broke the last one I said enough I am going steel! I will NEVER have glass again! I can’t imagine why they even make them that way they shouldall be like this! It pours amazing makes my French press experience a better sensory experience. I love all the smells, the act of making the coffee this way and everything about it! This one is a liter and that’s a good amount! I immediately pour it into an insulated carfat to stop it from brewing any more! I can’t even tell you how amazing the two screen system is! I am so in love with this press I will use this one as long as they keep making them lol I don’t see why I would need to ever buy a new one but you never know. We actually carry this if we travel along with our steel electric kettle I know that’s a lot but we really love the French press coffee. We can make it at relatives we are staying with or especially with the electric kettle we can make it in hotel rooms! We just put the kettle the press the caraft and the coffee into a backpack. Yes that’s love. If you don’t French press it’s time to start. You will be spoiled I promise it is THAT much better. You wait on your drip machine too so please remember that when I go through how I do the press. If you thinking about starting to press do it don’t hesitate buy this now!!! If your looking for something new or replacing your broke your broke stop breaking them and buy this one. I have recommend it to French pressers and coffe lovers both!Here is my process...Heat just over a liter of water in my electric kettle using the French press setting. If you don’t have that setting or if your heating water on the stove stop the heating just before it boils French press is done at 200 degrees. While the water is heating I prep the thermal press by putting hot water in it from the sink and let it sit while the water heats. A half cup of grounds is what we like so just before the water is ready I pour the water out of the press and add in the half cup of ground coffee. Pour the kettle heater water into the press over the coffee. I swirl the press a bit as I pour the water in. You need to agaitate all the grounds good. Once all the water is in I use a longer small wooden spoon to give it a good stir. I tap it on the side of the press to get the grounds off it. A beautiful creame sould form on the top (so deliteful to me). Place the lid on plunger up with the lid spun to ‘closed’ don’t press the plunger yet. I set a timer 4 mins. When it goes off Press the plunger down. Spin the lid around to ‘open’ even though it will pour some in the closed mode it is not sealed just helps with the brew process. I pour a cup and the pour it into a steel thermal caraft or something else the thermal craft from Amazon is my choice. I don’t keep it in the press because it will continue to brew some. I pull the plunger out with the lid drop it into the sink dump the majority of the grounds in the trash. Take the press back to the sink rinse it out. Then I grab up the plunger loosen the screens by spinning them just with the ends of my finger, don’t keep it tight there is really no need hand tight is good. I rinse all the grounds from the screens, spin it back hand tight with my fingers, I press the edges of the screens back to a flat shape so it tight in the press next time I use it, lay it across the press to dry. Every few time I use it I clean the screens good. Caution: after some use the metal screen edges are folded over on them to keep from being sharp but it starts to lift and can be very sharp! I totally unscrew the screens I drop them in a little bowl with dish soap along with the top and bottom that hold the screens. I will also put them in the dish washer, all of it in fact. Rinse them good with hot water if your washing them and put it back on. My favorite way to clean them and the best clean I get is to lay all four pieces (top 2 screens and the bottom) in the sink spray them down with bleach cleaner let them set rinse and put them back on. I wipe the bottom of the lid with a paper towel it really is the only way to get that creame stain off it. It’s steel so it wipes up good! Looks brand new! They don’t have to be perfect all the time as long as the grounds are rinsed out after the press. It comes with extra screens. I have been using this particular press about 5 months and they are sharp on the bottom but I have not put the new ones on yet. You can also get replacement screens. Most presses need new screens from time to time. Sounds complicated but it’s not. You wait on that drip machine I wait on the water, pour, let it brew, come back, coffee! It’s about a 10 min process part of that is waiting on the water and the coffee to brew them rinse out the press. It is the best coffee you will have ever taste!!! This is the most perfect press I have ever used! So durable! Easy to get the ground out and rinse, I don’t have to worry about breaking it! I need tough things lol! I will NEVER ever own another glass press! It’s insulated so it holds the temperature perfect while brewing and not loose heat during the brew! Buy this press you will love it!! If you don’t press yet I would say this would be the best press for a starter or a French press pro! The best coffee I have ever had. My husband would still use the drip machine if I was not available to press for him in the glass presses but he will do this one our drip machine is gone! If you like good coffee with the flavor you coffee intends to have you will love this press! My husband and I pass up the coffee shops now because we have something better than they make in our cups or we are headed home and would rather wait to have our coffee! Saves us a lot of money! Stop looking purchase this one! I don’t give out 5 stars!! It is a 10!!

After 8+ years using this French press (purchased end of 2016) almost daily except when we were away from home, it finally gave way on the fitting that holds the filter to the bottom. This thing was a workhorse. Considering to try to fix still or purchasing another 🧐. I love that it’s all stainless steel and no plastic. This size is perfect for two people. It cleans easily. The quality with it not affecting the taste to the coffee is excellent . The stainless steel held up perfect!

This is my first French press coffee maker. Over the past year, I have been trying to expand my coffee-making skills using several pieces of equipment which I have purchased based upon many, many online reviews. My first purchase was a Cuisinart grind and brew coffee maker, which is impressive and makes pretty good coffee. However, in reading further about coffee making machines and wishing to get a machine capable of making a quick but satisfying-tasting cup of coffee, I read up on all the k-cup machines but found mostly negative reviews about the taste of k-cup coffee as well as the negative impact of the disposal of the cups. Mind you my wife is not a connoisseur of fine coffee and only wants a hot cup of whatever. Thus, when I finally decided upon the Bunn MyCafe brewer, which reviews had scored best in taste because of its ability to brew at a higher temperature than the others and with four different drawers for different brewing functions, she offered only a roll of the eyes for my effort. The Bunn machine is impressive, especially when using the ground coffee drawer with an EkoBrew filter. The k-cup drawer suits my wife fine, because it's quick and convenient. but for me, not so much. Now we owned two coffee-making machines with the accompanying loss of counter space. The wife still uses the original Cuisinart most of the time with the resulting waste of coffee as she brews a full twelve cup pot but only drinks perhaps a third of it. I have been experimenting with the Bunn using different types of Peets (my favorite brand) whole bean coffee ground in a Cuisinart burr grinder which I purchased with another wifely eye-roll. But the connoisseurs say grind your own with a burr grinder…I have discovered several combinations of coffee and grinds in my Bunn that I like, but I won't bother to reveal them since the purpose of this review is not my machines and coffees, but is my review of the SterlingPro Double Wall Stainless Steel French Press. However, I felt it was necessary to first take you through the process whereby I arrived at its purchase.So, let's get to the review:At first sight, this is an impressive looking machine with its beautifully polished stainless steel. Even my eye-rolling wife likes the looks of it sitting on our kitchen counter. It feels and looks very sturdy and uses double stainless filter screens to give the press extra efficiency at keeping the coffee free of grounds. I don't know how long the screens are supposed to last, but I suspect that they will do their work for a long time. Even so, the press comes with two spare screens packed with it—a nice touch. Some have questioned the metal on metal sound of the screens as the plunger is pressed. There is some such noise, but I haven't found it to be a problem since the pressing is most effective when done very slowly.The press is double walled and all stainless steel. There is no plastic anywhere. Thus the press keeps the water hotter while the coffee is steeping. I have been pouring the water just off the boil and allowing it to steep for four minutes. I have been stirring the coffee with a bamboo chop stick for a few seconds after the water is poured then putting the lid and plunger in. After a timed four minutes, I plunge very slowly until I feel it reach bottom. I then pour into my cup. I use 24 ounces of water to 4 tablespoons coarsely ground coffee. After pouring a 12 oz. cup, I pour the remainder into a small thermos to keep it hot. I do this because if left in the French Press, the remaining coffee will continue to extract to the point of bitterness. I have arrived at this procedure through trial and error and recommend that users spend time experimenting to find what works best for you. I do recommend that you not try to brew only one cup as I have found that doing so results in an excessive amount of sludge in the bottom of your coffee cup. Even with 2 twelve oz. cups, I find it necessary to pour the second cup very carefully leaving just a small amount of liquid unpoured in the pot.Clean up of the pot and its mechanism is vey easy. The plunger rod unscrews from the screens and screen holder quickly and allows the screens to be rinsed along with the other parts. If the rod is screwed too tightly at the bottom, you may have to use a pair of pliers to unscrew it initially but thereafter, it shouldn't be a problem. After cleaning the plunger assembly, I then just rinse out the grounds remaining in the bottom of the pot and wipe clean with a soapy sponge to keep oils from accumulating on the walls of the pot. A quick rinse of the pot and I'm done.Finally, the StirlingPro has produced the best coffee of all my three machines living up to the many praises I have been reading about French Press coffee. Admittedly, I am very new to this, but I expect that I won't be buying another coffee machine for awhile. At this stage, I would wholeheartedly recommend this Press.
