Stainless Steel French Press – Frieling vs Espro

A few reasons make the Cafetière a excellent choice for all coffee enthusiasts. Although it is in fact humble, it gives is extremely ease to utilize. The simplicity never comes as a disadvantage, and if you in truth want a delicious coffee cup, you can always rely on this simple coffee maker.

However, the traditional French press has its own limitations and generally, the design flaw of the French pot puts off a good number of coffee enthusiasts. Lots of people often complain about coffee getting cold easily, poor filtering system, (leaving grounds in the cup), and thin glass (easily breakable). In the end, even considering the very low-cost, all these disadvantages dissuade people from purchasing this coffee maker.

French Pot Problems and Flaws

Do you find out that the flaws start with the pot itself? The glass walls of this coffee brewing tool allow heat to dissipate extremely fast. Consequently, things get worse in two ways. When water cools down, the extraction technique becomes slower and almost reaches at a minimum extent. The flavor and aroma extraction stop after the first minute. When steeping temperature lowers, the coffee extraction is extremely poor. The other annoyance with thin walls is obviously the coffee temperature, your coffee will become cold after a few minutes, way too fast for the majority of coffee enthusiasts.

The filtering is another disadvantage of French pots. Though the mesh filter is not bad, and it is excellent for all Turkish coffee enthusiasts, including me, American coffee aficionados may not love this coffee style. This filter always leaves some fine grounds in the cup.

Another disadvantage of the traditional, economical French pots, is that the beaker is made of thin, cheap glass and when you pour hot water extremely fast, it easily breaks. In order to address this problem, you need to pour water in two steps. Firstly, pour only a small amount of water to simply cover the coffee grounds and allow the glass to warm up slowly. After that, you can add a bit more water to warm up the glass a bit more and wait another 10 seconds to transfer more heat to the glass. Then, you can add the remaining water. Though this procedure definitely addresses the problem, it cannot be described as the most elegant way to prepare coffee.

How can you solve this problem and still make coffee in an elegant way? A Canadian company called Espro has come up with an innovative model called ‘Espro Press’ and this unique coffee maker addresses all these disadvantages, normally related to traditional Cafetière coffee machines.

In order to improve durability and troubleshoot the heat dissipation issues, Espro used stainless steel double wall, for their pot, and you can add as much water as you like without getting concerned about breaking the glass. The heat doesn’t break the pot, and even if you drop, or smash it, the pot will withstand many abuse. It can take a few dents from clumsy people like me as well. The double wall of this coffee machine always maintains the brewing temperature for a longer time and you can enjoy full extraction at its best.

Do you feel annoyed when you find grits in the cup? You should not get disappointed due to the truth that Espro Coffee Press solves this problem efficiently.

In a nutshell, the Espro press provides a strong, clean, full-bodied and black coffee and, all these innovations make it truly popular one of a huge number of Cafetière pot users.

Espro Press  P7 – Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel Press

The vacuum insulated double walls maintain stable temperature during the brew, for more precise flavors. After brewing, the coffee stays hot in the press while the outside wall remains cool for hours.

Creating coffee in your Espro press follows the same technique as a classic French press.

Warm up the beaker, add coffee and water, stir, let it steep for 3 to 4 minutes, press and serve.

You have to fix down your brewing temperature because the great insulation will maintain a the brewing temperature for a long time, causing an over-extraction.

The Espro press filter design works as a buffer between your grounds and the made drink. So over extraction is less of a problem than with your average coffee press.

The filters are BPA, BPS and phthalate free, made in Canada with USA manufactured materials.
