Bodum’s French press brewing system is legendary amongst coffee connoisseurs for its delicious full-bodied flavour and rich aroma. Our Melior French press coffee maker uses that classic functionality – and updates it with a modern appearance.

Like all products in our French press range, the Melior coffee maker has a lightweight borosilicate glass carafe and a reusable stainless steel filter and plunger, ensuring your coffee has the same great taste. But you can choose a style to complement your kitchen design, from a basic straight plastic body, to an eye-catching and curvaceous plastic design, or a classic stainless steel frame.

Whichever design you choose, the Melior French Press coffee maker offers an environmentally friendly method of brewing that’s sure to bring out the full flavour and aroma of your preferred coffee beans.

How it Works

• The French press system is the simplest way to brew rich, flavourful coffee.
• Place the Melior on a flat surface, hold the handle firmly, and pull the plunger up and out of the carafe.
• Add one rounded teaspoon or one Bodum scoop of coarsely ground coffee for each cup/4oz water.
• Pour hot water into the carafe (about 92-96ºC) leaving a minimum of 2.5cm/1inch at the top, and stir with a plastic or wooden spoon.
• Place the plunger unit on top of the pot and turn the lid so the pour spout is closed to retain the heat.
• Leave four minutes to brew, then slowly lower the plunger. Turn the lid to open the pour spout and pour your delicious cup of joe.

Use & Care

• Wash in warm, soapy water before first use and dry thoroughly. All parts are dishwasher safe.
