Amazon.com Review
Most coffee roasters and tea buyers recommend using a coffee or tea press to enjoy the beverages at their best, but the devices have typically offered one major disadvantage--the brewed coffee or tea cooled quickly within the glass carafe. The Bodum Columbia thermal press overcomes this shortcoming with its double-walled stainless-steel construction, which insulates hot coffee or tea to keep it warm for up to two hours. The end result is a rich, flavorful beverage with perfectly extracted flavors and aromas. p To use the Columbia press for coffee, grind fresh beans to a coarse consistency, add 2 tablespoons of coffee for every 6 ounces of water, then add hot water and brew for four to five minutes before plunging the press. Tea brews in the same manner, but with whole tea leaves instead. The press holds up to 48 ounces of liquid--enough for 12 small cups of coffee (4 ounces each)--and features Bodum's patented safety lid to keep the contents from spilling. For best results, users should dedicate the press to brewing one beverage only, as coffee and tea flavors tend to cross over when brewed separately in the same vessel. The Columbia coffee and tea press is dishwasher-safe. I--Rivers Janssen/I

5 out of 5 stars Large Thermal French Press   November 16, 2008
L. Arcieri (Fremont, CA United States)
We recently discovered the french press method for making coffee. This method is quick and simple and produces a rich cup of coffee. The presses I could find were small and I found myself making many batches when we had guests. br /This large french press will make enough coffee to serve 5-6 people with one batch. It also keeps the coffee warm for a long period of time. I also found that this press produces a cleaner coffee with fewer grounds getting past the filter. Although a bit pricey, I would recommend this product.


5 out of 5 stars Great Coffee!   October 14, 2008
M. Schafer (Germany)
While my only other coffee press experience has been a small 5-cup glass press I used for 6 months in the desert... I'm more than happy with this one! Holds much more, stays hot and easy to clean overall.


4 out of 5 stars Perfect size for a crowd   September 11, 2008
V. Douglas
I frequently have guests over for coffee, and this is the perfect size so I do not have to brew 2 pots. And it keeps the coffee warm for a significant amount of time.
