Bodum Chambord French Press
The Bodum CHAMBORD French Press is among the most recognized and reliable coffee brewers in the world. Virtually unchanged for nearly 70 years, this legendary French Press is as elegant as it is efficient. The CHAMBORD is constructed of high-quality materials including temperature-tolerant borosilicate, stainless-steel frame, and precisely tooled plastic and metal plunger.
No serious coffee connoisseurs' kitchen cabinet is complete without a high-quality French Press. This time-honored method of brewing yields an exceptionally rich cup. Unlike brewers that require paper filters, the french Press uses a 16-microns steel filtration mesh that allows more volatile and aromatic oils into the cup. We especially recommend this brewer to favor medium to darker roasts or coffees prised for their big-bodied characters.
Brewing Tip: You can never go wrong with a 1:16 Brew Ratio. This means that the classic 8 cup French Press that holds 32 oz of liquid, or roughly One liter, will require about 2 ounces of coffee, or just shy of an inch of coarse grinds tossed into the beaker. Add boiling water, stir for 10 seconds, wait four minutes, slowly depress the plunger, and voila! An exquisite, unadulterated cup of coffee.
