Product Description
BonJour's Maximus French Press combines classic beauty with revolutionary innovation. The new BonJour Flavor Lock stops the brewing process for fresh pressed flavor and the additional filter in the lid reduces even more sediment in your coffee. A French press consists of a narrow cylinder usually made of glass or clear plastic, equipped with a lid and a plunger that fits tightly in the cylinder and which has a fine wire or nylon mesh top that acts as a filter. Unlike drip coffee makers, the cylinder must be filled with (coarse) ground coffee and heated (hot) water. Because the coffee grounds are in direct contact with the brewing water, coffee brewed with the French press captures more of the coffee's flavor and essential oils, which often become trapped in a traditional drip brew machine's paper filters. It is usually stronger and thicker and has more sediment than drip-brewed coffee. Because the used grounds remain in the drink after brewing, French pressed coffee should be served immediately so as to not become bitter from over-extraction. Similarly, the French Press can also be used with loose tea.
