Why choose a coffee press?
A French press coffee maker is a convenient and efficient way for coffee aficionados to make a hearty cup - or a few cups - of fresh coffee.
Once you get to know the correct amounts and timing for your serving (or have this KitchenAid digital precision version to guide you), it's a no-nonsense way to brew coffee.
It allows the coffee grounds to steep in hot water and then you simply push down the plunger, leaving a delicious brew.
How to use the French press - Artisan
The traditional French press method can take a bit of patience and practice to master. But, with the French press - Artisan, you can go from zero to hero immediately.
Turn it on and you'll see the LCD display light up. Press the scale button to measure the amount of coffee and then hot water you're putting in. An included chart shows you how much to add for the number of cups.
Then, press the timing button for a brew time of between 3 and 4 minutes. Nothing is left to chance, so the results are consistent. When the timer has finished, use the plunger and it’s ready to drink. This digital plunge coffee maker has a neat cordless design and dual-wall insulation to keep the heat inside while it’s brewing.
A stainless steel vs. a glass French press
Deciding whether to choose a stainless steel or glass cafetière? There are several advantages of choosing the KitchenAid stainless steel French press over a glass cafetière version. As well as looking sleek and sophisticated, there's no risk of shattering. A stainless steel French press is sturdy, highly durable and retains heat for longer with its dual-wall insulation. It will also resist staining and cracking - a sturdy piece of kit.
Beans: your secret to French press success
