FAQs
What type of coffee grind should I use?
It is best to use a coarse grind for this French press. Fine grinds can pass through the filter and make the coffee muddy, or clog the plunger.
How do I clean the cafetière?
Hand wash all parts with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry with the provided e-cloth. Ensure the filter is clean after each use.
Can I put the glass beaker in the dishwasher?
While some borosilicate glass is dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to preserve the finish and prevent potential damage over time. Always check the product manual for specific guidance.
What is the capacity of this cafetière?
This is an 8-cup cafetière with a total volume of 1 liter.
Is the stainless steel rust-proof?
High-quality stainless steel is resistant to rust, but it's important to keep it clean and dry to maintain its appearance and prevent corrosion.

Troubleshooting
Coffee tastes weak or watery.
Ensure you are using coarsely ground coffee and allowing it to steep for the recommended 4 minutes. Check that the water temperature is hot enough (around 90-96°C or 195-205°F).
Plunger is difficult to press.
This often indicates the coffee grounds are too fine, clogging the filter. Disassemble the plunger, clean the mesh thoroughly, and use a coarser grind next time. Ensure the glass beaker is properly seated.
Glass beaker has chipped or cracked.
Carefully dispose of the damaged beaker and replace it. Contact the manufacturer or retailer for replacement parts if available. Handle with care during washing and use.
Coffee grounds are escaping into the brewed coffee.
The mesh filter may be damaged or not properly assembled. Disassemble the plunger and inspect the mesh for holes or tears. Ensure all parts of the plunger assembly are tightly screwed together.
