Ibili French Press 1L

Big enough for the whole household. Simple enough for any morning.

The French press, or cafetière, is probably the most straightforward way to make coffee at home. Add coarsely ground coffee, pour in hot water, wait four minutes, press the plunger down. That's the whole method. No filter papers, no special equipment, nothing to measure too precisely.

This one from Ibili holds a full litre, which is enough for around four cups at once. The stainless steel frame keeps it sturdy and helps hold the heat while the coffee brews. Black finish, clean design, it works on any kitchen counter without drawing attention to itself.

No paper filters needed. Just coffee, hot water, and four minutes.

Good if you… make coffee for more than one person, or like having a pot's worth ready without making multiple brews. The most fuss-free brewer in the range.

For the best results, use a coarser grind than you would for filter coffee, roughly the texture of coarse sea salt. If your coffee comes out gritty, go a little coarser. If it tastes weak, go a little finer.
