Bodum KENYA 1L - 8 Cups - French Press Coffee Maker - Black

Product Features

The Bodum KENYA French Press Coffee Maker is a classic 1-litre brewing system capable of producing up to 8 cups of full-bodied coffee. Measuring H23.2 x W14.7 x L11 cm and weighing 0.653 kg, it features a heat-resistant borosilicate glass carafe designed to maintain the pure aroma and richness of the coffee without staining or altering the flavor. This eco-friendly brewing method eliminates the need for paper filters or plastic capsules by utilizing a reusable stainless-steel plunger and 3-part mesh filter system. The design allows natural coffee oils to remain in the brew for a superior mouthfeel, while the sleek black frame provides a durable and stylish housing for daily use in any home coffee corner.

Materials

Heat-resistant borosilicate glass carafe; high-quality stainless-steel filter and plunger; durable plastic frame and handle.

Installation & Maintenance

To brew, add coarse coffee grounds followed by hot water, allow to steep, and then press the plunger down slowly. For best results, pre-warm the glass carafe with hot water before starting the brewing process. After each use, the coffee maker is easy to clean as many components are dishwasher safe; however, hand washing the glass carafe is recommended to prevent accidental damage. Ensure all parts, especially the mesh filter, are thoroughly dried before reassembly to maintain hygiene and prevent sediment buildup in future brews.

Safety Warnings

Burn hazard: the borosilicate glass carafe and the escaping steam will become extremely hot during brewing; always handle the unit by the heat-resistant handle. Use only coarse-ground coffee, as finely ground coffee can clog the mesh filter and create high pressure, potentially causing liquid to spray out when pressing. Ensure the plunger is pressed down slowly and steadily; excessive force can cause the glass to crack or hot liquid to eject. Keep the unit on a flat, stable, and non-slip surface while in use. Keep out of reach of children and pets when filled with hot coffee.
