A 3-cup (350 ml) glass French press, also known as a press pot or plunger pot, is a simple and popular method for brewing coffee. It consists of a cylindrical glass or stainless steel container with a plunger and a mesh filter.

To use a French press, you start by adding coarsely ground coffee to the bottom of the container. Then, you pour hot water over the coffee grounds and let it steep for about 4 minutes. After steeping, you slowly press down the plunger, which pushes the grounds to the bottom of the container and separates them from the brewed coffee.

The result is a rich and flavorful cup of coffee with a full-bodied taste. French press coffee is known for its robust flavor and the oils that are present in the final brew, which can give it a slightly thicker texture compared to drip coffee.
