Review on ☕ 34 Oz 1L Mixpresso Stainless Steel French Press Coffee Maker - Double Wall Insulation, Easy Clean, Easy Press - Strong Quality Coffee Press & Tea Brewer (Stainless Steel) by Ingrid Buell

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A simple, no-frills coffee maker that gets the job done

I'm very impressed with the Mixpresso press brew. This is a simple french press that can be easily disassembled for cleaning each time. I gave it a 4 for longevity because I've only been using it for 2 weeks. Time will tell if the strainer/filter mechanism will hold up as that usually breaks in these pots. I can't say anything about insulating properties either, as I immediately pour the ground coffee into another pot. However, the vacuum jug keeps the coffee hot as long as it steeps for the required 4 minutes. I used to have a glass kettle and by the time the 4 minutes was up the coffee was tepid so this time I looked for an insulated kettle. I'm glad I did. Also, I like that I don't have to worry about it cracking when I pour that store-bought water at 205 F (required brewing temperature is 195-205 SCA) (another past mistake). The pot is advertised as 34 oz, but that's unrealistic. Once you've added the lid and coffee, you're limited in the amount of water you can add to prevent it from spilling out. I was only able to successfully use 28 ounces of water while using 30g of coffee. Overall satisfied enough to justify 4 stars.

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • It's ok
