The Bodum 3 cup Chambord coffee maker has been a classic almost from the day it came out - still is, and always will be. This latest update comes with a lid that closes off the spout which makes the Chambord spill-proof should it get knocked over. It also makes for better temperature control. In terms of excellent coffee brewing, manual labour is more popular than ever that is if pressing a plunger can be qualified as manual labour. The French press lets the coffee beans develop their fullest aroma so it doesn't come as a surprise that it is the brewing method of choice for coffee tasters trying to determine quality beans. The simplest route to an excellent cup of coffee, coarsely ground coffee, hot water, wait for 4 minutes and press down the plunger.0.35 Litre capacity. 12 oz. Also available in 8 cup version.
