Hard times at the end of World War II, almost no trade and the people lost their jobs. Peter Bodum managed to wholesale a very small household products by Danish manufacturers. After the war Peter Bodum got an import permit counter and products; he traveled throughout Europe and ended up importing kitchen and household for denmark. As in all of Europe at that time, the lack of products in denmark is no markets for almost anything for sale. He specializes in glass from Eastern Europe. In the '50s Peter Bodum started developing his own products. He worked with Danish architect Kaas Klaeson for a variety of Lunch. At that time, industrial-design-kitchen type of product that is very rare. The first Bodum product went to market in 1958 was the Santos coffee - based on coffee brewing system vacuum. Became an instant sensation not only in denmark, but throughout Europe. Bodum still produces the original Santos design to this day. Bodum continuously grown over the 60 years, but unfortunately, in 1967, aged only 57, Peter Bodum passed away. His wife managed the company until 1974, when he offered 26-year-old son Joergen to join her in the company's management.Joergen quickly brought on board Carsten Joergensen - then a teacher at the Danish School of Art in Copenhagen - and soon made him responsible for the overall design Bodum, including everything from product design to companies, exhibitions, shops, buildings, catalogs, and advertising. It turned out to be very long and fruitful kolaborasi.Kedua he began to meet Bodum's credo - "good design does not have to be expensive" - in many different ways. In 1974 the first fruit of Joergen and Carsten's collaboration was introduced: the French coffee press Bistro. It was also the first incorporation of the new Bodum design language - beautiful simplicity and materials are very good for everyday life. More variations of coffee presses followed. Since 1974 Bodum has produced more than 50 million French press, took the leap from "coffee" to "kitchen," and developed and produced a variety of household and beautiful table designs. In 1979, when he took over the company, Joergen Bodum decided to move to Switzerland to be more centrally located in Europe. He chose the Lucerne area, where Bodum's headquarters have been found since the early '80s. Bodum Switzerland in 1980 and its design unit, Pi-Design, was established. Then, in 1986, the opening of Bodum's first shop in London marked another milestone in the Bodum history. This is designed not only to be perfect to showcase a large variety of Bodum products but create a stronger presentation of Bodum as an international brand.

Reviews

Easy to do one to two cups of coffee. The only problem is with clean-up easy if you don 't mind grinds rinse down the drain, but if you want to throw waste in the mill, are humid.

For me, the coffee made in a French Press is the best. If you want a smooth, rich cup, it's really the only way. Pay attention to the description though, it 's 8 4-ounce cups, not the typical 8ounce "cup " you're used to. If you drink from a big mouth, you can get two out of it. Spend a few dollars more and get a larger model, it is worth it.

People Amaze me. SO many of the negative reviews of this product have to do with confusion over the serving size and have nothing to do with the quality of the coffee. If you read the instructions or do a little research before choosing what size to buy, you will Clearly see that in "coffee " terms, a "cup " is considered 4 oz, not 8 oz. So if you need a larger size, buy a larger size. Don 't blame the coffee maker because you can ' t do math. Also, don 't give a glass item a negative review because you dropped it and broke it. You knew it was glass when you bought it - just be careful. r rNow that that 's out of the way, let ' s actually address the coffee. The Bodum makes a great, robust, full-bodied cup of coffee. Pansies need not apply. Aside from a $ 600 espresso maker, for the true coffee lover, this is probably the best at-home coffee experience you can get. Before you decide on using a French press - any French press, you should Realize that there are benefits and drawbacks - just as there are to any method of Brewing. Yes, you will have some sludge in your cup. It 's unavoidable. If that offends your delicate sensibilities, perhaps the French press is not for you. However, if you are looking for a REAL cup of coffee - bold, strong, flavorful - this is probably the best method of Brewing. The press method of making coffee is all about freshness and flavor. Coffee beans have natural oils that contain a lot of the flavor. Paper filters in drip coffee makers take away this flavorful component, but give you have a cleaner cup of coffee. You have to choose which is more important to you. If you want to TASTE your coffee, give the Bodum French press a try. It 's definitely a little more work to heat your water separately and Brew this way, especially if you are grinding fresh when you drink, but the the extra flavor is well worth the effort in my opinion. r rAlso, don 't Overlook the importance of the beans. If you don 't have fresh, good quality beans it doesn ' t really matter what method you use Brewing. For the best overall experience, I recommend fresh beans that you grind at home with a Conical Burr grinder on Coarse setting, and Brew immediately in the bodum in the appropriate size of your choice. And READ THE INSTRUCTIONS of how much coffee to use. It 's not a mystery, people. Use one scoop (included) for each 4 oz of water. Measure your water in ounces before heating to make sure you have the right proportions. R race a note, I purchased the 8-cup model that is sold with a warming "coat " included, which is a great addition. The coffee tends to cool down very quickly since the glass is thin and there is no built-in heating elements or insulation. The box advertised that I purchased the coat is apparently free, so if you can find it for the same price with the warming coat included, I would highly recommend it.

I 've owned by two Bodum presses and have loved them both. There are problems with both. R rthe first press coffee I had was a cup of 8-one, who did a lot of coffee if I filled it. I chose the 4 cup model, more recently, and find that 'sa little too small.

It needs more time to throw Linux more coffee in the coffee maker, but it 's really worth it when you want a good cup of joe. Rmy woman is believed that the container for the flowers, but that 's life. RPros: Great! cup of coffee. RCons: Not so good when 're in a hurry.

I own a Stainless steel French Press by Frieling. It leaves a few grounds in the cup each time so I thought I 'd try the 8-glass Bodum. Bodum The lid has a plastic piece through which the Pours Coffee each and every time. So, while the Bodum doesn 't leave grounds in the cup (the only annoying sludge), I ' m returning it because of the plastic. Hot water and plastic do not go together. Plus, in previous reviewer mentioned that the Bodum Plunger doesn 't go all the way to the bottom. It should, but it doesn 't.

Excellent French press, well-built. Produces an excellent cup of coffee ever. This is my ideal coffee machine.

Such a simple device, not much to say except that part is of high quality, holds up well, and look great on the counter. Only downside is that if you need more than 2 large cups of coffee GREAT, then you must repeat the process. But hey, if you NEED NEED NEED more than 2 cups of caffeine, you need a variety of drugs, LOL! R rSince we are new to the new method of coffee-making so we buy a grinder and Bodum Electric Tea Kettle (Bodum makes high quality stuff) I review below: r RNOW I 've had a few weeks to try it out, I LOVE IT! After hours of reading reviews of grinders, and less to stay under $ 100, I bought this one using the Bodum Chambord French Press and it works flawlessly. We use the lowest setting for rough ground and it seems to do the job perfectly for French Press style. May time a grind-to-knob (up to 40 seconds for the volume you want to grind) that you just set and leave it once you know how much you need every morning. For 4 cups of coffee, our knob is set for around 15 seconds. Wake up, press the red button, remove the cup of fresh yard, pour the French Press, add near boiling water (from our Bodum Electric Tea Kettle) and Voila! (The only bitch is cleaning the unit French Press).

I broke my girls 'Press, so I sent for the Bodum Chambord 4 cup Coffee Press. It was delivered very quickly, and the price was reasonable. My daughter was happy with him. Thank you

I have a french press before that I like to use when I travel. It broke, and I this one. Well, some clown french DECIDED emphasis should 't down because someone might have pushed too hard and break the glass, so they all looked like it was designed to stop long before the bottom. The result is that you can 't really press grinds, and when you pour, lots of fluid remained in the land at the bottom. You should expect it 'exhaust ' exit end if you hold it upside down. It doesn 't taste good, too. R wrinkles. Think I'll look for another brand where the French Press can actually do what its name promises. Press the coffee.

I was told the Bodum is a premium brand for manufacturing coffee presses. I Placed an order for a 3-cup French press as a gift for two friends. They are a married couple and tired of drinking instant coffee commercial. The photo presented on Amazon looked like a 3-cup one is big enough for two people to use at the same time. Thus I recommended and bought a 3-cup coffee press for them. r rHowever, after the deliver guy left, I opened the package box to find the glass of the press already broken. And the size looks kind of small for two people, especially when I am going to give it as a gift. So I returned the 3-cup press and ordered a 4-cup one from Amazon. The money was returned to my account promptly. I was impressed by how convenient and efficient to return a product on Amazon. My friends like the 4-cup french press very much and are using it frequently.

We provide our coffee Tap daughter and son-in-law as a housewarming gift for their new Mountain House, along with the coffee grinder. They were so happy and thought it was the best coffee ever! They just love it.

Bought the press 4 cup, perfect for a large iced coffee or two in the morning. The design is well designed. GH would like to stress that this is done in Portugal and some non-communist Asian countries. R rthe design flaw that only coffee grounds get lodged between the mesh of steel plates and the plunger after use. It helps to have a tap in the kitchen that sprays like a shower to help the grounds out there. This isn 'ta deal breaker by any means, just don ' t forget to clean this area.

Works great. I suggest to transfer the coffee into a thermos to keep warm.

Very pleased with this item. The coffee I make with this is excellent. Only wish they had one twice its size. Definitely recommend purchasing.

I had the 4 cup model. There is 1 "mug " coffee with a little room for cream, if I 'm in the mood. (my cup is about 2x the size of a cup of American coffee standard) r rmy wife does not drink coffee, so that the smaller model is perfect for me. I buy a larger model at some point, to entertain guests. R rPros r-done coffee fantastic, if you follow some simple rules: coarse grind (reduce sediment), Don 't use too few reasons (more - extracting = bitter coffee), grind your own beans ( GRIND YOUR OWN BEANS !!!), if not back to back ... washing between uses (coffee oil accumulation = bitter), Don 't Leave extra coffee in the press (it will continue to steep, which is bad) r-Simple to use, easy to clean. Everything comes apart with little hassle r-dishwasher (While I use too many leave never sit in the dishwasher.) R-Sturdy (The speaker who spoke about busting the bottom was probably using force when you press Hulk, Stirring with metal (which creates micro-cracks in the glass), or clean in cold water may be too soon after the hot coffee in the press. ( which is also bad for the glass ... duh)) r "You will experience the flavors never knew you had a coffee before. R rcon r work harder to clean than a filter machine to prepare (but worth it) r-Glass is breakable, Don 't drop it or put a 2 year old. (They make unbreakable plastic models, but the accumulation oils that make coffee bitter Cling to plastic, and Don 't Cling to glass. C ' is something Chimie SA, a chemical engineer, as my brother.) R "He lost me for coffee the other. I used to tolerate bad office coffee, now I don 't stand the smell of it. When I travel, I regret the French press coffee, but buy them from any chain, but it 's still not as good as my own press. R Press rFantastic! Rside Note: I heard that Aero - press makes a good cup of coffee too, but I 'm afraid to try because she always uses a filter, and you lose some flavor components of coffee for the filter, no matter what you do.

High quality construction, works great and make two full mugs of coffee at a time. R rLooks nice enough to always keep on the counter.

This is the second hit the coffee I bought. The first one has a plastic filter that kept breaking after a few weeks use, even when it is used well. R rthe Bodum has certainly made the final but I don 't like metal foot / attachment handling so I ended with the pitcher from my old broken coffee press with a rubber bottom easily removed for better cleaning. The Bodum filter is difficult but not as well in compliance with all yard where they belong under a plastic pitcher filter with the rubber seal that break easily.

This was my first experience with coffee. After reading reviews here I purchased this Bodum Chambord 3-cup model in a store of items for the home. A note to consider: For "3 cups " means that 4 ounces per cup, or a total of 12 oz I knew this was going on that I wanted something where I could make one cup rather quickly in accounts with my Cuisinart 12-cup coffeemaker. R rAnyway, here 's my list of positive and negative aspects of this model: r rPositives: r-best coffee I ' ve ever done. I had always received praise with the Cuisinart, which was very warm and good cup of coffee. But my first experience with a press really made me a believer in this technique. Only makes a rich, smooth cup of coffee could not get the Cuisinart. R-perfect size for a cup (size of America). R-real media component works well, not a lot of coffee grounds and mud happening on the screen. R-It looks good r rNegatives: r-The glass jar is very thin. Honestly It 's just a matter of time before something breaks. Even the instructions say to use a plastic spoon to stir coffee "not splinter or break the glass " (paraphrase). I 'm not really surprised they gave us ' t use a thicker grade of glass. R-cleaning can be a bit annoying as the jar is quite narrow. Obviously, Don 't want these isotopes course that is down the drain by throwing it away. Once you 're ready to clean, of course, every reason to push down to the bottom. A woman with small hands may be able to get there and gently wipe with a paper towel. My method is to use the plastic spoon to collect what I can in the trash with a paper towel after trying to remove a couple of her fingers to remove the residue. Although water xipollejar end having to make all and, inevitably, a small% of the reasons for entering the bathroom. R rin short, if the glass jar was greater I 'd give the unit 5 stars, It ' s really too bad when Bodum cheap. But what really makes a cup of excellent coffee, and 's very easy to use. I Don 't regret the purchase as I did ' I fell by accident a lot of money for my release if I know before. Now I know I do, is likely to gain a better 8-unit glass, steel or perhaps at least one that is broader and allows for easier cleaning.

This is an amazing product, to say the least. I 'll never go back to self-drip again. However, if you're the type of person who doesn 't know how to treat their phones gently, this release is going to break you in the first week of use. R RNOW, I'm not "What kind of person, but I have a family member who is. The glass cup should be cleaned after each use, every time (of course), and 's easy to fall. It 's also easy (if you ' re not paying attention) to push out of the tumbler when you 're about to clean it, and because the suction is still on, the glass can out with the plunger, blowing on the ground. Great. R rStill , it 's original e ' s an awesome way to make coffee. It 's less sensitive than a Moka pot, taste better than a regular ol 'automatic drip, but less expensive than installing an espresso machine. It ' s perfect work of man 's solution for a good coffee.

In the past, I threw away my glasses full press coffee when the glass (they are fragile and prone to crack, break). I found this on Amazon and glass replacement works and fits perfectly into my press in stainless steel at less than half the price (including shipping). RI am very happy.

This point is very thin glass. It arrived broken. It is a waste of money. 9 August 2009

Sign up, it didn 't that those 3 cups of 4 ounces and not 3 cups of 8 ounces, making it completely fill doesn ' t my journey Starbucks coffee cup. My mistake. Other than that, it is easy to use and has great taste. It 's much faster than my drip filter coffee was, and tastes better.
