As I have been a coffee drinker for many years, I thought that I knew everything about coffee... that is until I happened to drink a cup of coffee that was brewed in a stainless steel coffee press! It was the most delicious cup of coffee I ever tasted. It is so easy in this day and age with the world economy struggling to do without and put things off, but there is nothing wrong with spoiling yourself just a little bit, right? Being curious about stainless steel coffee presses, I decided to research coffee presses and these are some of the facts I found out. The French press is actually a very old method of making coffee and it is known as a cafetire in some European countries. Although coffee presses come in a wide variety of sizes and styles, the stainless steel press is considered one of the best models to buy because of its durability. A stainless steel coffee press is comprised of really only three parts. These are the beaker or carafe part which holds the coffee and water, a plunger and a lid. The plunger has a mesh filter instead of a paper filter, which allows the natural oils and essences of the grounds to be permeated into the brewing process. With this simple construction, coffee made in a stainless steel coffee press retains more flavor. Because the ground coffee is present during the entire brewing process, it is recommended that the coffee be consumed within twenty minutes to avoid a bitter flavor. A French press not only adds more flavor to your cup of Joe, but has several other assets which make it perfect for any home kitchen. Foremost, a stainless-steel coffee press lets the user decide the correct time to use for brewing. With this, you can decide how strong or weak you would like your Java to be. Of course, a stainless steel press is much smaller that a normal coffee maker, thus freeing up counter space. With its beautiful shape, it becomes more of an art piece than an appliance - with the added plus of being able to be moved to any location, as it takes no electricity to make the coffee in the press.
