P7 French Press, 18oz, Brushed, Stainless Steel Coffee Maker | Double Filter Coffee Press, Grit-Free Coffee, Heat Resistant Insulated tea Press, Easy Hot and Cold Coffee Brewer, Tea Brewer

You can’t beat an ESPRO French press. I have been through so many French presses and always come back to this one. It is the best quality design and makes the best coffee. The 32-ounce size is perfect for a morning on the patio for two people. It filters the coffee beautifully, keeps the coffee hot, and it is a well engineered and simple design. Highly recommend this French press. It is worth every penny!!!!

Update: After three weeks of use, here's what I can tell you. This press has totally replaced my classic Bodum French press, which has been relegated to basement storage. My initial impression that it was harder to clean than the Bodum one was wrong. Actually, it's easier to clean and I never have to worry about breaking it. My annoyance that it didn't keep the coffee as hot as other reviewers promised (whoever said it keeps coffee hot four hours is lying) has totally faded because the coffee is delicious. While it does not keep the coffee hot like a thermos would, it does keep it nice and fresh and hot if you want to make a press and have it on the table throughout a leisurely breakfast while reading the newspaper or whatever. So, overall, I do stand by my bottom line. Great coffee, might not be worth the extra for the double-wall vacuum-sealed, but I can't see going back to my old press again. Original review below: I bought this after reading a NYTimes Wirecutter review of French Presses. I’ve used a classic Bodum press for two decades, but after reading about the potential cholesterol raising effects of unfiltered coffee, was looking for an alternative. I use a Clever for single-cup filtered coffee, but most days I want to brew more than one cup at a time. Enter the Espro. And as long as I was upgrading, why not go all in with the double-wall vacuum insulated model? This could be my leisurely weekend coffee maker. Well, the coffee is great, but the added expense of the double-wall, vacuum insulation is not at all worth it. Kept the coffee moderately hot for one hour. After two hours, it was unpleasantly cold. I thought this would spare me the need to decant into a thermos, thereby saving me some clean up. But since there are so more parts to the filtration system than a typical press, it’s more of a pain to clean up, and doesn’t keep the coffee very hot. Bottom line: Great filtration, but the glass or non vacuum sealer metal versions would suffice. The top of the line version doesn’t deliver on keeping coffee hot long enough to justify the high price tag.

I bought this along with a super high-quality grinder, and discovered that I kinda only needed one or the other. The mesh filters are fine enough on this that you can get away with a relatively crappy grinder. You can even use regular pre-ground coffee, and it'll come out okay. With a normal glass/single layer mesh press, using regular grounds will result in actual sludge in the bottom of your cup. With this unit, the Costco bulk ground coffee will leave some fines in your cup, but will work fine otherwise; the second layer of screening is good enough to keep the sludge at bay. If, on the other hand, you have a high quality, consistent grinder, you can buy a less expensive press and do fine. That said, pairing this with a good grinder makes absolutely *splendid* coffee. You don't necessarily need both, but I doubt you'll regret the purchase. The double filters can also help you calibrate your grinder; if the inner filter is getting many grounds on it, you probably want a slightly coarser grind. This unit is tall and skinny, and does better with a tall sink for cleaning. If you're trying to rinse it out upstairs in a standard bathroom sink, you should be able to do it, but it'll take a little maneuvering. The actual cleaning process is very easy, although you do have to clean two little baskets instead of one. It takes a wee bit longer than cleaning a standard press. The build quality seems good. Oh, one other note: because of the filter design, you end up with some coffee left in the bottom that you can't drink. You're using a more water than normal, so it takes more grounds than you're probably expecting. Further, French presses need more grounds for the same amount of coffee, because they're ground coarse and use a shorter brewing time. (normally 4 minutes.) I use six tablespoons of coffee per batch, and I get two 16-ounce cups out of it. With my older drip brewer, it took only four tablespoons. In exchange, the quality is *vastly* better, you can use almost any grounds, and after you've plunged it, the coffee stays excellent for at least an hour. Seems well worth it to me, but if your coffee budget is small, the higher consumption might be something to consider.

Oh my gosh, no coffee grounds in my cup! I love it! It keeps the coffee hot and it tastes wonderful! I don't like the taste of coffee when it is burned, and that is what the auto coffee makers are doing. This coffee is good enough to drink black.

Solid product, I use the carafe more than the filters because the quality of the product is so good. Dishwasher safe

I have been saying it since I wrote the first, independent, official review of the first Espro Press: These make such a clean, flavorful cup of coffee that they make the "traditional" press pot obsolete. The filter is so effective that once you press, the extraction stops. With the old style presses you dare not drink the last sip because of the sludge at the bottom of the cup. That sludge add bitterness to the cup. The Espro press filters so effectively that there is virtually no sludge that gets transferred to the cup. These double-wall, vacuum insulated presses not only keep the coffee hot but are also TOUGH! Don't worry about one breaking when dropped into the sink- worry about the sink! TIP: to not waste the last bit of coffee, when most of the coffee has been dispensed into cups, while holding the press over the cup as to pour, pull the plunger out about two inches then press it back in. It will pump most of the coffee liquid out. That tip makes it a bit easier to clean up, but all presses do leave grinds in that need to be dumped out. The benefit of the Stainless Espro presses is that they are tough to knock on the side of the waste bin without worry. How good are they? Among many other coffee making devices and machines, I lost four or five Espros in a house fire. One of the first two coffee making devices I purchased was this one. If you do not need to make 32 ounces at a time, try the 16 ounce version. But all their presses work the same and make thesame great coffee. Even the affordable travel press.

Aero Press vs Espro P7. So I bought both products but at different times. Aero Press I have been using for about 3 years or so. It’s great. Very easy to use, you buy these paper filters that fit easily at the bottom. Then put the container over a cup and push the plunger down. Can’t get much easier and as important the coffee is good to very good. Also, I would give the ease of cleaning up a Solid 10 !!! Why because you just unscrew the bottom piece counter clock wise and then put the coffee plunger over your garbage can and push the plunger all the way down. The coffee grounds and paper filter just drop out. Rinse the plunger and container and you are ready for another smooth cup of Joe. So Espro P7 is better at the amount of coffee pressed since it is 18 oz. The coffee is also good to very good. It’s easy to make also. But the clean up….. wow this is a sloppy cleanup. The plunger comes out but what is left behind is a wet, wet mess. No way does it come out easily in the garbage can. You have to either use multiple paper towels or rinse the container under the kitchen sink without getting the left over coffee grinds down the drain. No way Ray is that going to work. Bottom line buy the extra large Aero Press and enjoy a good to better cup of coffee with awesome clean up no fuss, no mess, no clogged drains. Just my opinion.

Great tasting coffee, very little sediment, lovely stainless steel construction, it's worth the extra time in the morning. I was afraid the filters would become damaged during manual hand cleaning but after over a month of every day use, no problems. Min and max lines are accurate, too high it slightly overflows around seal when inserting the plunger, too low and at full insertion the filter won't hit the top of the grounds, leaving unfiltered coffee left in the bottom. Recommend to wash filters in dishwasher once every two weeks or so because the seal around the outer filter gets discolored with constant use and manual cleaning doesn't do the job like the dishwasher does. And be careful during travel and don't wash with steel wool or anything abrasive, it scratches easily, or at least the polished steel I bought does. But it's worth the extra care, I love this press. Kind of nuanced, but I put in about 85-90 grams of coffee and fill to the max line every day (for two lol) and since this is a lot of grounds, the plunger won't insert all the way because the filters hit the top of the grounds before full travel. This is mildly annoying, but reducing the max travel of the plunger for the strong coffee drinkers would force the min volume to increase, which isn't desirable, so it's ok. Very well thought out by Espro, great press.

Vom Versand bis zum Erhalt hat alles super geklappt. Wir sind begeistert. Sehr empfehlenswert und würde ich wieder kaufen.

it clears all the grains and leaves a real coffee flavour of the country of origin of the coffee. It doesn't hurt your stomach because it takes out all the coffee powder.

Fantastisch systeem, geen koffiedrab meer in je kopje zoals met een normale French press, kortom een heerlijk kopje koffie. Echt een innovatie. Ik kan hem iedereen aanraden. Je hoeft alleen de buitenste filter eraf te draaien, dan kun je hem makkelijk schoonspoelen. Als je dat direct doet nadat de kan leeg is, dan kost dat geen enkele moeite. Laat de filters aan de lucht drogen, zodat je ze niet indeukt of los maakt met je vingers tijdens het afdrogen.

Makes an amazing cup of coffee. I found that you need an electric coffee grinder for the coffee grounds. However, even if you do have properly ground coffee, you still end up with same in the bottom of your cup. In the 32 ounce press, you end up with 3 large cups of coffee. The press keeps coffee moderately warm. However, this Press is very sturdy and does not break like glass and in my opinion, very much worth the price. You may need to replace the filter down the road. With the above being said, I still believe it makes an amazing cup of coffee, and am very happy with my purchase. I believe, you get what you pay for!!

Sadly, I found this cafetière wastes coffee because the fine filter stops the last of the brew from pouring out. I say sadly because, in all other respects, this is an excellent product. Very fine filter, excellent tight fitting lid, excellent insulation. But, alas, this wasn’t quite the right size for me.
