Things To Consider When Buying a French Press
After watching the video above, I now know what I need in order to make an educated buying decision. I have put a lot of thought into what type of French Press to buy and as discussed in the video above, here are some things you will want to consider when buying your first French Press.
Size
- Do you want only enough for one cup
- Will you want to make coffee for more than one person
- Does it need to be small and portable
Material
- Do you want to be able to see the brewing process (glass, or glass and metal)
- Does it need to be able to retain heat for longer periods of time (ceramic or stainless steel)
- Are you clumsy (glass can be easily broken)
- Do you care if it’s made of plastic
Grit
- The classic filtration system allows some grit to pass through
- Some filtration systems allow no grit to come through
Style
- Is it for function only, or do you want it to look stylish as well
Portability
- Do you intend to travel with it
- Consider the weight for travel
- Will you need to make more than one cup of coffee, if yes, size will matter
Summary of Best French Reviews
From what I’ve learned by researching through the best French Press reviews that I could find, it seems that for me, the most economical way to get started is the mix of stainless steel and glass French Press at a size that I can easily make coffee for multiple people. What’s the fun in making amazing coffee if you can’t share it with your loved ones.
I ended up going with the Cafe Du Chateau French Press (check out the post about it here). This french press has the following features that I really liked:
- It is big enough to make multiple cups of coffee.
- The filtration system looked good given the price point.
- It’s sleek and will look nice when not in use, so I don’t have to find a spot in my cupboard, I can display it on the counter or coffee nook.
- The glass looks as though it is properly protected, so the risk of breaking it seems lower than if the glass was more exposed.
- There are a lot of reviews and they are mostly positive.
Here are a couple of other options if you aren’t happy with this one. Some of these are mentioned in the video or are variations of what was mentioned. When buying anything on Amazon, always keep an eye on the reviews, and make sure there are lots of positive reviews so you know there are a lot of happy customers already.
