Coffee Brewers: French Press/Cafetiere from Bodum, Melior, Chambord, and French Press Parts! (#)

„The advantage is clear: there is no longer a layering of screens and you will no longer face those annoying grinds that get trapped between the layers. The SwissGold Filter Disc fits standard French Presses of many makes with a 3.5" inside diameter, including the Bodum 6 or 8 Tasse press (24-32 oz sizes) AND the new 4 Tasse Bodum Press we stock. It will not fit the diameter of the 3 Tasse (12 oz), or 12 Tasse (48 oz). You would assume it is made from SwissGold material but in fact this would be too fine for a French Press and you would never be able to plunge it!“

Tea & Coffee 07/00 - Urth Caffé: A Hollywood Success Story (#)

„The Bravo one-group espresso machine has been replaced by a Bravo three-group semi-automatic espresso machine; two Curtis D-500 Airpot Brewers have replaced the single pot pour over; and multiple glass jars brimming with biscotti, madeleines, and chocolate covered espresso beans fill the counter. At the rear of the store, there are numerous shelves lined with urns of coffee and tea, French press coffee pots, cups and saucers, tea pots from China, Japan, and England, and a number of other accouterments that appeal to the hands-on consumer of coffee or tea. Seating for up to 30 awaits customers inside the store and for up to 50 more awaits customers on the outside patio. By 10:00 am, all of the seats will be filled.“

JAMA -- The Physicians' Dilemma in the 18th-Century French Smallpox Debate, November 5, 2003, Lipkowitz 290 (17): 2329 (#)

„Into the 1770s, physicians expressed concern as to whether inoculation provided lifelong protection against contracting smallpox, whether inoculees spread natural smallpox, and whether inoculation-induced smallpox (known in the 18th century as "artificial smallpox") was less virulent than natural smallpox. Simultaneously, physicians faced a demanding and emotionally charged public who labeled as "murderers" those who lost patients to inoculation and yet accused physicians who refused to inoculate of complicity in thousands of deaths.6-7 The public's demand for action in a situation in which the public good was poorly defined placed tremendous pressure on the deliberative, consensus-oriented culture of the 18th-century French medical guild.“

Amazon.com: Kitchen & Housewares: Frieling 0103 French Press 5-6 Cup (#)

„The carafe holds about 3 standard coffee mugs worth which I found ideal. If you're new to French press, do yourself a favor and purchase a good quality burr grinder with a "very coarse" or "French press" setting. They're expensive, but you're wasting your time if you just drop in some generic-grind supermarket grounds; you won't get the proper extraction from the beans and you'll have a lot of icky sediment. Blade grinders just don't give you a consistent grind and they tend to be a bit "dusty" which will leave you with even more sediment.“

A translucent side window marked with cup measurements allows you to make just the number of cups you want. --Margo Schneider“

Espresso Blends (#)

„In general, the goal of espresso blending differs from the goal of filter coffee blends (and some may argue that there are blends specific for French Press brewing or for serving with cream/milk). Filter coffees may be blended for complexity or for balance, but an espresso blend usually must be blended for balance or particular cultivar qualities that would be favorable in a filter coffee brew might overwhelm the espresso extract.“

CoffeeGeek - Coffee: Machines and Brewing Methods, Are all French Presses created equal? (#)

„The basic principal is all the same, but Sweet Marias used to carry the Swiss Gold extra fine insert that goes in the Bodum French press's filter assembly. It cuts down on supended solids & less sludge in the cup.There is one other press, the Tirra by Trudeau that doesn't press the grounds to the bottom of the press, but it pulls the grounds up & out. Bob Roseman (brokencup) has one & can fill you in on it, I'm sure!“

CoffeeKid - The Vacuum Brewer FAQ (#)

„Further guidelines: For cloth filtering devices, use a grind slightly finer than auto drip; for metal filters (non mesh), use an auto drip grind; for metal filters (mesh) use a coarser grind, close to a press pot grind; for paper filters, use an auto drip grind; and for glass filters, use a grind halfway between auto drip and French press. The Bodum Santos Electric (or Starbucks Utopia) can use a very fine grind, but it also can overstress the filter, breaking it prematurely.“

„It would appear that super-gourmet espresso exists up to maybe 3,000 feet elevation. Above that you better get a French Press.
