The Brazil French Press coffee maker, designed in the early 80’s, quickly became a symbol of what Bodum stands for. Attractive and functional design at an affordable price!

I’m in coco heaven!
A recent article in GQ suggested making coffee using a cold brew technique using a French Press. I bought the Brazil based on price and I’ve been very happy.

I have two Chambord models, and this one. I prefer the features of the Brazil’s keyed lid, and secured plastic frame to the Chambord models. I’ve had this for about 3 years now, use it every day, and it’s held up perfectly. Great press.

great coffee
makes great coffee, but make sure your grinds are big enough to press or they will be come stuck in the plunger grate, making them difficult to remove.

Simple is better
I have two of these, for home and the office. It shines at the office in particular, as shared drip machines tend to get pretty nasty.

This was my first French press. I have always enjoyed this type of coffee, particular after dinner. However, I was attracted to the plastic framework surrounding the carafe, as I can be clumsy at times.
This press has worked just as well as the more expensive, more traditional looking French press pots. I set the coarsest setting on my Braun grinder, and no grounds get through the screen. It is just perfect. I haven’t ever run my press through the dishwasher, it isn’t necessary with the easy cleaning with this one. I just put hot soapy water in the carafe, up-and-down a few times with the plunger and it’s all ready to use again. I have heeded the warning not to stir with a metal implement; I use a wooden spoon.
I would heartily recommend this model of Bodum for someone who would like to experience French press coffee at home, inexpensively.

I bought this coffeemaker after breaking the caraffe of my previous Bodum press. It’s been great, and the molding around the bottom edge definitely is an improvement over my other model - it protects it from the everyday bumps. Big fan!

I love my morning coffee!
I’ve owed this for a while now. I use it nearly every day.
Overall it’s easy to clean.

Does what it’s supposed to
Ordered this because my last glass beaker broke. I enjoy the taste of coffee best from a press, and this one works beautifully.

On my third one
This is the 4th Bodum press I’ve owned.
The first was the small 3 cup, next the 8 cup Brazil on this page, then the 12 oz plastic take it with you press.

Good product.
The only problem with it is getting the press under the handle to press the coffee. Otherwise, this is a great product and works nicely for coffee for 2.
