The French Press is a user-friendly classic that never goes out of style. Simply pour in ground coffee or tea, add hot water, wait a few minutes, press the plunger, and you're done. The double mesh at the end of the plunger separates most coffee or tea particles from the brew, resulting in a clear infusion. The glass container is resistant to high temperatures and is additionally protected by a polypropylene body that is safe for food contact. The glass tank is removable for easier cleaning. The handle remains cool, allowing you to hold the press with hot contents without any issues. Hario's Cafe Press U is manufactured in Japan to the highest standards, making it a reliable brewer for many years.
