Bialetti 8-Cup French Press

Bialetti 8-Cup French Press
The Bialetti 8-Cup French Press is the ultimate in quick strong "coffee for dummies". You can't mess it up!

To Use:

1.) Remove the plunger;
2.) drop a few spoonfuls of ground coffee into the glass beaker;
3.) fill the beaker a few inches with boiling water;
4.) stir;
5.) replace the plunger and press it down slowly through the water until it reaches the bottom of the beaker;
6.) pour and enjoy!

WARNING: If you're not used to coffee with a high caffeine content, go easy with this at first. An ensuing caffeine headache is almost guaranteed any day following a high-caffeine intake day UNLESS you continue to take in high caffeine levels at or near the same time of day. To avoid caffeine headaches, be consistent with your daily caffeine intake OR, withdraw from caffeine gradually, reducing the amount over a number of days.

Pros:

fast, easy, affordable, convenient, rinse-and-store clean-up

Cons:...

nice
easy to use and care for, once in a while a few grounds get past the filter- this may be because it is easily bent around the edges, so you have to watch out for that. I think this product is well worth the price.

unshipable
The only reason I gave it one star is so I could review this. The glass carafe arrived broken. Item was immediately returned. I am still waiting for the charge to be removed from my credit card...4weeks. Do not order it. The packaging for shipping is inadequate.
