Leavitt Bay French Press Travel Mug

You simply add your coarse coffee grounds and hot water directly into the mug, let it steep, and then slowly press the integrated plunger down. The built-in filter separates the grounds from your coffee, allowing you to drink directly from the mug once the plunger is locked in place.

Yes, the French press filter is effective for steeping loose-leaf tea. Because the plunger creates a solid seal, you can easily stop the brewing process once your tea reaches the desired strength.

The lid is designed to be secure for travel, but it is not 100% airtight like a dedicated thermos. While it is safe for upright transport in a car cup holder or backpack, we recommend keeping it upright to prevent any potential drips.

The plunger assembly unscrews easily, allowing you to rinse the mesh filter and the plastic components under warm water. We recommend hand washing all parts to maintain the integrity of the vacuum seal and the finish of the stainless steel.

The double-wall vacuum insulation is designed to keep beverages hot for several hours. While performance varies based on ambient temperature and how often you open the lid, it is significantly more effective than a standard ceramic or single-wall travel mug.

Yes, all plastic components used in the construction of this mug are BPA-free and food-grade, ensuring your coffee remains free from unwanted chemicals or plastic aftertastes.
