  • Comes apart to clean: The plunger assembly removes completely and the mesh unscrews, so old grounds rinse out under running water.
  • Presses without a fight: The stainless steel mesh plunger uses 3-layer filtration and comes down without resistance.
  • Made for coarse grinds: Use a coarse grind like raw sugar or breadcrumbs, because fine grinds slip through the mesh and make coffee muddy.
  • Three sizes to choose: Three sizes run from one generous mug to four cups, enough for a Sunday morning brew or a small gathering.

Care & maintenance

Stainless steel forgives almost everything. Glass does not.

  • Disassemble for cleaning: Remove the plunger assembly completely. Rinse the glass carafe and steel shell separately with warm soapy water. The steel shell traps coffee oils in the seams, so wipe it inside and out.
  • Filter maintenance: Unscrew the plunger mesh every few weeks and rinse under running water. Old grounds build up between the filter layers and slow the press.
  • Gold plating care: The gold finish is PVD-coated but not invincible. Skip abrasive sponges, they scratch through the plating. Use a soft cloth or sponge.
  • Avoid thermal shock: Don't pour boiling water directly into a cold carafe. Preheat with warm tap water first, then dump and brew. Borosilicate tolerates heat well, but sudden swings crack glass.

Frequently asked

Which size should I pick?

The 350 ml brews one generous mug or two small cups. The 600 ml is two mugs, enough for two people at breakfast. The 1 L is four cups, a full Sunday morning brew or a small gathering.

What does the steel shell do?

Three things: it protects the glass from knocks, it insulates the carafe so the brew stays warmer 15–20% longer, and it hides coffee stains. The glass does the brewing, the steel does the keeping and the looking.

Which pattern should I choose?

Vertical grooves are classic and tactile. Plaid grid is architectural, geometric. Smooth polished is minimal and reflective. The pattern is cosmetic, the brew is identical, only the grip and the shelf presence change.

Silver or gold?

Silver is cooler in tone, blends with most counters. Gold is warm, catches light, leans ceremonial. If you already own copper or brass tools, gold matches the family.

What grind do I use?

Coarse, like raw sugar or breadcrumbs. Fine grinds slip through the mesh and make the coffee muddy. A good rule: if you can't feel individual particles between your fingers, it's too fine.
