Bodum Columbia 4 Cup Stainless Steel Thermal Vacuum Coffee Press

Highly recommended. I already owned the 12 oz. pot and loved it. Got this slightly larger pot shipped to my daughter''s home -in the ready for our holiday visit. I quickly made my first pot but noticed an off taste in the coffee. I thought it must be her water as that was the only change from my own home --beans, grinder, pot all the same. So, I washed everything again and made another pot. Still had the off taste. I could smell whatever was causing the off taste but didn''t know what it was. Finally I identified it as coming from the the seal on the filter. So, I made sure the filter remained above the water line while the coffee was brewing. No off taste after that! Problem solved.Bodum Columbia 4 Cup Stainless Steel Thermal Vacuum Coffee Press, 0.5 l, 17-Ounce

This press is great! I just broke my Bodum Chambard, which is glass, after five years of use. I had the 32 oz., which was far larger than necessity dictated. Moreover, glass presses undergo considerable heat loss after four minutes of steeping. This press not only remedies that problem since it is double walled stainless steel, but you couldn''t break it if you tried. The coffee tasted great, although I was a bit curious to see if steel would cause it to taste bad. Not in the least! It tasted fine and it keeps the coffee hot, so you are not forced to down a cup of coffee within a couple minutes for fear of tepid coffee. Once you try steel, you''ll see the appeal!

This little thing makes a delightful morning brew. Be aware, however, the "4 cup name" does not translate to "4 x 8oz (the actual measurement of one cup = 8 oz). So, I get one hefty mug of coffee from it. When serving more than one, it requires multiple brews. Had I known, I would have gotten the larger size. Nevertheless, it is very sleek in design, sturdy, and makes a nice cup of coffee.

The purchase was simple and efficient, taking about a week to arrive with free shipping. Using two scoops of coarsely ground decaffeinated coffee, boiling water, and--important--I stirred the brew before affixing the top with the plunger up. I let the brew steep about two minutes, pushed the plunger down easily, poured, and was immediately satisfied with my purchase, even though a little pricey. The stainless steel filter and smooth-finished inside walls of the container created a great seal on the plunger, without any blow-back. Clean-up under the faucet was simple. One caveat: the flexible plastic seal around the edge of the filter could be easily damaged. With a little care, I expect many mornings of wonderful coffee.

I''ve had lots of french presses, but this one is just great, having broken the glass container on my last one (again!) it was time for me to look for a new one, and how great is it!

All metal container and thermal on top of it!

The mesh looks like the standard Bodums, and the lid contains a plastic lip that can close the pouring orifice to keep the heat in (by twisting the cover till the arrow points to the exit)!

Ok the thermal part doesn''t last forever, but personally if I don''t drink it within 2 hours I make a new pot anyway.. freshness, that''s why I got a French Press in the first place anyway!

I drink in those big cups of coffee at home, this size fits about 1 1/2 of the big (double-cups)style mugs, Perfect!

My best one yet! Love it!
