Review of Bodum Shin Bistro 51-Ounce Coffee Press

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have just about every size of the Bodum bistros and have always enjoyed them. I have made my coffee this way since the late 80s.
Unfortunately, bodum now has a different plunger that gets really hot on the top (since it's metal ... original model was made of plastic so it didn't conduct heat)and it leaks. By that I mean when you push the plunger in and then pour the coffee, a lot of the coffee drips down the side of the beeker, creating a real mess. And don't forget, this is really hot coffee that's dripping all over the place. I wouldn't recommend this purchase to anyone.

The Bodum Shin Bistro French press coffee maker is accepted worldwide as one of the best methods for brewing coffee.Coffee is measured in 4 oz. cups, so our 12-cup press will brew 51 oz. and serve 5 to 6 people.The patented safety lid prevents the squirting of liquids.It features a black stay-cool, non-slip rubber handle.The body is made of high-tech, ultra-light heat-resistant borosilicate glass and is a great hit for those who want to combat life's daily stresses with a perfect cup of coffee at anytime.Simple to use, the French press is a proven method for brewing flavorful and balance coffee.For best results, use coarse ground coffee.Just add the appropriate amount of ground coffee to the beaker (we recommend one 7 gram scoop per 4 oz. of water).Fill the beaker with hot water (just off of a boil).Leave about an inch from the top of the beaker.Give the coffee a stir with a plastic or wooden utensil to mix it completely with the water.Set the plunger and lid unit in place with the safety lid in the closed position.Allow the coffee to brew for 4-minutes and then press.Turn the safety lid to the open position, serve and enjoy.Clean up is easy too - just scoop out the grounds with a rubber spatula, and rinse the beaker and filter.There is no paper or additional filter required.The 3-part stainless steel filter system is built right into the press.All parts are dishwasher safe.The Shin Bistro is also available in 3, 4 and 8 cup models.
