Stainless Steel French Press – Frieling vs Espro

A few reasons make the Cafetière a great choice for all coffee enthusiasts. Even though it is literally simple, it provides is extremely ease to use. The simplicity never comes as a disadvantage, and if you actually want a delicious cup of joe, you can always rely on this humble coffee maker.

However, the traditional French press has its own limitations and mainly, the design flaw of the French pot puts off a good number of coffee lovers. Many 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 affordable, 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 equipment allow heat to dissipate very fast. Consequently, things get worse in two ways. When water cools down, the extraction recipe becomes slower and almost reaches at a minimum degree. 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 aficionados.

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

Another disadvantage of the traditional, affordable French pots, is that the beaker is made of thin, cheap glass and when you pour hot water very fast, it easily breaks. In order to answer this problem, you need to pour water in two steps. First of all, pour only a small amount of water to just 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. Even though this recipe definitely addresses the problem, it cannot be described as the a lot of elegant way to prepare coffee.

Espro Press  P7 – Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel Press

Creating coffee in your Espro press follows the same procedure as a traditional 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 adjust down your brewing temperature due to the reality that 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 brewed beverage. So over extraction is less of a problem than with your normal coffee press.
