Best Coffee Machine – Expert Recommendations

The french press coffee maker hands down delivers the most rich, full bodied coffee you can make. The coffee grounds steep in the water and there is no paper filter to absorb flavorful oils. Because this press is designed with a double-wall stainless steel construction, the coffee stays hotter longer (goodbye burning your coffee in the microwave) and is indestructible enough to travel with you, wherever you go. This is the only french press available on the market that has a silicone sleeve (protects countertops) and comes with its own travel-ready canvas bag. We are veteran owned and developed our french press after being desperate for good coffee during years of chaotic travel in the military.
