This new 4 cup (0.6 l, 17 oz.) French press coffeemaker is a beautiful extension of our classic Bodum® COLUMBIA line. It combines stunning elegance of form with the best materials for perfect function. The double-wall of stainless steel adds thermal properties to keep your coffee or tea hot for a longer period of time! This French press is polished to a mirror-finish, has a large comfortable handle, and is dishwasher-safe. The 3-part stainless steel plunger has a fine mesh filter, which allows for a premium extraction of your coffee’s aromatic oils and subtle flavors. A mesh filter allows this flavor to be delivered direct to your cup and not absorbed by a paper filter. Plus, no paper filter means no waste! The patented safety lid prevents the splashing of liquids while pressing. All parts are dishwasher safe. Available in 12 cup (1.5 l, 51 oz.) and 8 cup (1.0 l, 34 oz.) size models.
