Bodum Columbia French Press

Thanks to its double-walled stainless steel construction, this French press offers superior heat retention compared to glass models. While exact times vary based on ambient temperature, you can expect your coffee to stay hot significantly longer than in a standard glass carafe.

Yes, the entire unit is dishwasher safe. Because it is constructed from durable stainless steel, you do not need to worry about the glass breakage often associated with traditional French presses.

The fine mesh filter is designed to minimize sediment while still allowing the essential oils that give French press coffee its signature full-bodied flavor to pass through. It provides a cleaner cup than many standard mesh filters, though a small amount of fine sediment is a natural characteristic of immersion brewing.

This model has a 31-ounce capacity. This is generally enough to brew about 8 cups of coffee, assuming a standard 4-ounce cup size, making it ideal for serving multiple people or enjoying a larger morning serving.

Yes, the handle is ergonomically designed to provide a steady, controlled grip. Because the entire unit is made of stainless steel, the handle is sturdy and balanced, even when the carafe is full.
