[Music] hi everybody thanks for watching this today you’re looking at a really nice French press coffee maker this is actually made by IKEA this is an Ephrata I think I’m seeing that right
capacity yeah this is about 34 ounces so a decent size I should get you through the day if you’re starving college kid like I was and coffee got you through it
like most French press coffee makers are not incredibly easy to clean but they do a pretty good job with this one
construction wise this is made of stainless steel heat-resistant glass and polypropylene is the plastic that’s reason for this we’re gonna go ahead and use it
I’ve already got my hot water ready to go here but with all French presses what they first recommend they do because we don’t have a heating element like you do with a coffee maker is to go ahead and put hot water in this kind of pre warm the glass so we’ll go do that I’ll be right back nice and warm so you don’t have a tepid cup of coffee a nice hot cup of coffee
[Music] now I ought to do it price on this it’s not going to set you back a ton
I’m just using some Seattle’s Best Coffee it’s a real dark rich coffee I’ll be up till midnight
one of the great things about these French presses is that you really don’t need a lot of electricity besides what you used to heat the water but that could be gas too so there you go again
34 hours capacity on this don’t touch the glass now we put the plunger in just slowly press that down here we go and the aromatic experience of a French press is so much better than any automated one the smell just some fuses into the room
you don’t have that loud gurgling sound overall if you’re into the coffee for the experience of coffee which as most people age or get a little more sophisticated they do like not to be a coffee snob but that’s how it is you can see all the coffee grounds are down below a micro screen
it’s doing a really good job if you ever have any resistance with a plunger stop you could break the glass it’s a warning they have
so we’re ready to go here that’s down I’m gonna go get my IKEA double-walled Cup or were to enjoy this I like these old cups of coffee too these little cups they’re only about 5 ounces but that double wall that they have on there insulates your hand and alternatively keeps your coffee hot longer so here it is
hey I did it off screen because I need a haircut and a shave but that smells wonderful just a different flavor altogether different feel different sensory experience than with an automated coffee maker so that’s it price-wise on this you’re probably gonna pay it under 20 more likely under 10 to just depend on where you get it
I’ll put a link in the description if you want to learn more about it down at the bottom in the write-up if you want to purchase one for yourself or just learn more that is a you fraida French press coffee maker by IKEA 34 ounces a good deal thanks for watching [Music]
