Fabulous Cup of Coffee, with one caveat

Highly recommended. I already owned the 12 oz. pot and loved it. Got this slightly larger pot shipped to my daughter's home -- in the ready for our holiday visit. I quickly made my first pot but noticed an off taste in the coffee. I thought it must be her water as that was the only change from my own home --- beans, grinder, pot all the same. So, I washed everything again and made another pot. Still had the off taste. I could smell whatever was causing the off taste but didn't know what it was. Finally I identified it as coming from the the seal on the filter. So, I made sure the filter remained above the water line while the coffee was brewing. No off taste after that!

Great Press!

This press is great! I just broke my Bodum Chambard, which is glass, after five years of use. I had the 32 oz., which was far larger than necessity dictated. Moreover, glass presses undergo considerable heat loss after four minutes of steeping. This press not only remedies that problem since it is double walled stainless steel, but you couldn't break it if you tried. The coffee tasted great, although I was a bit curious to see if steel would cause it to taste bad. Not in the least! It tasted fine and it keeps the coffee hot, so you are not forced to down a cup of coffee within a couple minutes for fear of tepid coffee. Once you try steel, you'll see the appeal!

Perfect replacement

This product is great for my family - we love to add frothed milk to coffee, and to make frothy hot chocolate or frothly milk with a little vanilla. The replacement carafes are necessary because, unfortunately, the glass can break. We broke our first carafe after about 1 year of use, so I ordered 2 replacements, and they are a perfect match. Now we have a back-up too.

Carafe

These carafes are so thin that they break at the slightest tap. The company charges an outrageous $12 to replace 50 cents worth of glass.

Rating :

Too delicate

This is my third replacement. The beaker is just too thin to break. After I broke the second one, I've got really annoyed and started looking for other frother. I even got a hand-held electric one. It didn't make the froth like the beaker and the pump do. In the end, I had no choice but bought another replacement, which was overpriced. It's either buy more replacement or spend a fortune on an espresso machine that comes with a steamer. I wish Pyrex could have made the beaker. I will keep looking for a better milk frother while I'm enjoying my cappuccino.

neccessary replacement for fragile carafe

I bought three replacement carafes this time because I'm hoping maybe this will last me a couple of years now. I bought my original Bonjour Frother a few years ago and I've gone through so many of these glass carafe replacement parts it's ridiculous. I've complained to the manufacturer that the glass is too thin...then again, how will they sell so many replacement parts if they make them more durable? Planned obsolescence at work again. These are too skinny and you must be extremely careful with them- but you can't do without them, so you're stuck.

If you have a broken beaker, there is no need to replace the entire coffee press. You can buy a replacement beaker and be on your way to brewing great coffee again in no time. The 2 Cup replacement beaker fits all styles of the BODUM 2 Cup Coffee Press.

Inaccurate Description

"Product Features" are inaccurate: "Fits all Bodum 4-cup coffee press models and styles". Bodum's 4-cup Melior model is a different size. Bodum does not offer replaceable glass beakers for models that have been discontinued. This is terrible customer service, especially considering that sooner or later glass beakers will break.

Replacement Just Like Original

I've only had this replacement glass a few weeks, but it seems to be identical to the original it replaced. The original lasted about 6 years, and only bit the dust due to careless dishwasher loading my one of my family members.

Bodaum Repladement 4 Cup Glass Beaker

It fits OK but it a little bid tighter, and is difficult to remove for the washing purpose. It is not the same as was original one, makes a noise
when glass sliding in the metal parts of the Press.

Great replacement for delicate part

Look at these things the wrong way and they break. The first press should be free because over the lifetime you'll spend far more in replacement beakers than the cost of the press. But if you insist on supporting this flawed design then this is a good way to keep the coffee flowing (or keep the wife happy). Be sure to measure your old (broken) beaker to match up with the correct replacement part.

It's a replacement--what's the question?

If you need a replacement beaker for your Bodum glass coffee press, this is it. It fits fine in the cage, just like the original one. If you think I'm going to say "don't buy this because the coffeemaker is no good" why would I? If I thought that, I would not buy a replacement and I would not bother to come here and lecture you about it. Rather, I'd do a good review for a coffeemaker I DID like, after chucking this one out. Yes I would. And I am not going to tell you, "glass breaks so be careful" either because--you know--that's obvious. So, if you break your Bodum, get this replacement beaker instead of a whole coffeemaker. Unless you threw it away before thinking, "Maybe I could just buy a new glass thingie." Then you'll have to buy a whole new one. Too bad,too, because here's a nice replacement and it's cheaper than buying a new one. Bye now.

Your tasty coffee is ready to enjoy!

Understand Amazon's return procedures...

An all-glass 34 ounce coffee press for 14.95? I so wanted this to work. It seemed that other presses are overpriced. Sadly, this deal was too good to be true.

Some products work well, others work well enough; this coffee press could not possibly work. The handle is glued on. The glue wasn't strong enough to hold the empty cylinder--not even close. It came off in my hands as soon as I placed it in the sink to wash it for the first time. I feel lucky that it just happened not to shatter. Thank goodness I hadn't made coffee--I might have been scalded.

It sure pays to understand Amazon's return procedures. They've provided return labels and will refund the price when they receive it.

best coffee maker I own

I am a typical coffee drinker in that I have a drip coffee maker and also buy coffee from various sources. Two years ago, I decided to try a coffee press and haven't looked back. The 12-ounce size press is the best overall, because it makes a full standard cup or enough for a typical insulated coffee mug. To get the best results from your press, purchase guality coarse ground coffee or buy a coffee grinder and grind your own. I like Starbucks whole bean roasted coffee, and use a Burr grinder to grind several cups worth at a time, and store it in an airtight container. The coffee you get is far superior to a drip coffee maker, and you can make one cup at a time. Use the enclosed coffee scoop and heat the water to just below boiling. You stir the coffee (with a wooden or plastic spoon-NOT metal!)and let it sit for four minutes for the grounds to settle. The best part is that even if you make it a little strong, the coffee will not be bitter, but have a very robust and complete flavor. The bad news on the press is that it is very fragile- I broke the first one just by packing it for camping. If you want one for travel, buy an unbreakable one.

Quick great tasting coffee with little cleanup!

I love this french press! The size is perfect for one cup of "american style" coffee (I use regular Maxwell House). I put about 3-4 teaspoons of course ground coffee into the bottom and fill it with very hot water. I have a Hot Shot dispenser in my countertop which makes this very easy! After filling it with the hot water I stir well and place the stainless steel press/handle on top...but don't press yet. I wait about 4 minutes for the coffee to "brew" then slowly press down.

The final result is a rich coffee taste that is not bitter or burnt. Cleanup is a breeze...dump the coffee grounds and wash/rinse the glass containter and stainless filter/handle. I've been putting it in the dishwasher with no problems.

Highly recommended!

Bodum equals quality

I bought this french press because I found myself making coffee just for myself rather than two or three people. Bodum did a great job making this press both functionally and aesthetically. The Shin Bistro is simple yet stylish. Minimal use of plastic makes this press look slick and tidy. I really like the actual press part that Bodum has made for this particular press. This press has the same type of set up for the press, a bottom, the wire mesh screen and then the top with wiring and holes to allow the coffee through. All the pieces align well, the plunger is screwed tightly to the rod. I have found that pushing down the plunger is easy and does not create a mess.

I imagine that since this press does not have a stand like the Chambord that this press requires more careful handling. I recommend using a coaster after pouring in the hot water to avoid damaging the countertop.

Overall this press performs amazingly well and can make a great cup of coffee. It has not yet let grounds pass through the press so there is very little sediment in the cup. Play around with grind size, I talked with my local roaster and he said that course grind works well but if you want a better tasting cup of coffee go with a medium size grind and plunge the press slowly and evenly. I am pleased with Bodum's line of French presses.

12 oz. size misleading

Be aware that the 12 oz. size specified is the liquid capacity of the empty carafe -- all the way to the top (in other words, if you pour water into the carafe without anything else in it, you will be able to pour exactly 12 oz. if you fill it all the way to the top). You will not be able to make 12 oz. of coffee with this diminutive press, due to the addition of grounds, the press portion of the device, and the fact that one cannot safely or practically fill the carafe all the way to the top when making coffee.

If you like a large mug of coffee, definitely get a bigger size.
