Bodum Chambord 12-Ounce Coffee Press
Amazon.com Review
Serious coffee lovers agree that the best way to brew everyone’s favorite stimulant is also the simplest and quickest. The French press method prevents scorching of the beans, and because there’s no filter involved, all of the flavorful oils stay in your drink. Simply measure out one rounded tablespoon of coarse ground per 4-ounce cup, pour very hot (not boiling) water over it, let the contents brew for at least 4 minutes, then slowly depress the plunger. The result is one of the richest cups of java you’ll ever taste. This attractively designed Bodum press is the perfect size for one person’s morning fix. Because the carafe is glass, it’s best to use a little care when handling the press in the sink–but if it should break, don’t panic: Bodum offers replacement parts. –Mary Park From the Manufacturer When Bodum took over a small clarinet factory in Normandy in 1982, it was not because of the fine orchestra clarinets they were producing. In addition to musical instruments, the factory also produced the coffee of a relatively-unknown brewer called “The Chambord.” Bodum combined the skills of these Normandy craftsmen with modern production. The result was a unique culinary tool, affordable to the many who loved the taste of what we now know as French press coffee. Thanks to Bodum, and thanks to the increasing need for better coffee, the French press coffee maker has become one of the most popular in the world. Yet, the design has not strayed a bit from the original drawings, and Bodum still makes the Chambord with the same painstaking care and knowledge they gained from those Normandy craftsmen years ago. The ease of brewing and the delicious smell and taste of French roasted dark coffee have remained unchanged. Awards & AccoladesIn 2004, the Bodum Chambord coffee press received The American Culinary Institute?s award for best French press coffeemaker.

single cup of perfect coffee
… and that’s exactly what you’ll get. A French press is arguably the best cup of coffee around, and that’s what you’ll get. It will just be very small.

I guess I should have done the math. This press is cute. But it comes nowhere close to 3 small cups of coffee, not even two.

Bodum Press review
I bought this little coffee press from Amazon on sale for $10 less than normal. It’s a wonderful little coffee maker. It doesn’t quite make 12oz of coffee but good enough.
