Espro Everyday French Press P3

Yes, the double micro-filter system is significantly finer than standard French press screens. It captures the vast majority of coffee grounds, resulting in a noticeably cleaner, grit-free cup compared to traditional immersion brewers.

The silicone seal creates a tight fit against the glass walls, which stops the extraction process immediately once you plunge. This prevents the coffee from continuing to steep and becoming over-extracted or bitter if you don't pour it all at once.

Yes, this model is compatible with paper filters. Using one in addition to the metal mesh filters will remove more coffee oils, resulting in a lighter, tea-like body similar to a pour-over brew.

The P3 uses thick-walled Schott-Duran glass, which is known for its durability and resistance to thermal shock. It is secured by a safety lock to keep the glass firmly in place, making it sturdy enough for regular, everyday brewing.

The 32-ounce capacity typically yields about four standard 8-ounce cups of coffee. It is well-suited for households brewing for two to three people.
