Bodum French Press ReviewA Bodum
Well, what should you consider? Firstly, if you are not sure about what a French Press (or Plunger is), then click here. Bodum are a reputable brand and available in most places. Great coffee shops will also sell the glass inserts, should you accidently break yours. So why is this a good option for the office? Let me ask you this. Does your office has one of those dodgy push a button, the cup drops down and a brown liquid

Or grab the freshly ground batch of gourmet blend that you are savouring every drop of at the moment. Add the right amount of ground coffee into your 3-cup French Press, pour in the water, and brew. And you didn't even need to switch on the Espresso machine, no milk frothing required. So what's the drawback. Yes there is one. You have to do the cleaning. You have to clean your French Press before the next coffee. You need to make sure that residue does not start to build up. This robs you of great coffee taste.

I did also find that there was a slight powdery texture as you approached the bottom of the cup, but the Bodum French Press not as excessive as some other French Presses I have used. In summary, a classy option that provides you with excellent control over the strength and flavour of coffee you drink. But you have to keep it clean. In the case of this Bodum French Press, it looks the part too.
