Over the summer I had a yard sale in which I sold My grandmother's french press for three dollars. I remember it was one of the first things that sold. The recipient was extremely excited, as well as incredulous, at finding such an amazing bargain. Even though I couldn't guarantee that it worked, I still had seller's remorse.
Since that time I've dug around and discovered that french presses are ideal in producing great tasting coffee. While I don't consider myself to be a coffee connoisseur, I do recognize that the ever popular k-cups do not produce the best tasting coffee. My mom received a Keurig as a gift and wasn't using it because she goes out for fresh coffee, so she gave it to me and I really hate it. Even if you go to Cosco and buy those pods, or k-cups, in bulk they still manage to be substantially higher in price than regular coffee. So you're basically paying more for compromised tasting coffee.
What about convenience?
Convenience seems to take precedence over taste. Don't get me wrong, I like to keep my morning routine simple. The French Press that I reviewed from Kitchen Supreme, may require a bit more effort than inserting a pod and pushing a button, but it's still in the realm of simple and time-friendly, and oh so worth the little bit of extra effort.

| Kitchen Supreme top rated coffee press, inexpensive and delivers a great cup of coffe |
Convenience without sacrificing quality
Filling the carafe will render three cups of coffee, which is what I normally drink. Of course coffee amount and water can be adjusted for one or two cups. Thus, you're still getting the simplicity and convenience of a single serve coffee maker, just far better coffee.
I'll admit, I was somewhat intimidated by the process of making coffee using the French Press, however, it's an absolute breeze.
A 3-step process is all it takes
 |
| first two steps: add the coffee then add the water |
If I can successfully use a French Press, then anyone can..
 |
| Third step: Simply press down |
The french press by Kitchen Supreme is by far my favorite, they make the process so simple and it even looks ever so cute gracing my counter.
Clean up is a breeze
The Carafe is dishwasher safe, however, since I don't run the dishwasher daily and I do use my French Press every day, I simply just dump the grinds in the trash; fill the carafe with hot water and dish soap then add the plunger and let it soak. Rinse and air dry.
Kitchen Supreme uses Borosilicate Glass: This is the only type of glass conceived to resist at thermal shocks, it will never crack!

I've always heard that a French Press makes the best coffee, but up til now, I've never actually used one. It's time to get a new coffeemaker, as ours broke, and I've been living on instant (YUCK!). From your description, it doesn't seem as intimidating as I thought it would be. I'd love to try it. : )
My husband would love the rich coffee that comes from one of these! Thanks!
Coffee is one of my favorite beverages. Actually, it is my favorite beverage. I don't think I could live without it! :-) You rock!
I tried press coffee in a cafe in New York City. One of the best coffee I have ever had.
I have coffee going all day. I'm a serious coffee drinker. I would love to experience real coffee!
Oh, French Press coffee is truly the best! Consider grinding you own coffee before brewing- it makes a delicious difference. My press just broke after 7 years (!) of use, and I'm pretty sad about it.
I have always wanted a French Press. I love coffee and everything about it - the aroma, the process of making it, the different roasts. I've heard a press makes the best coffee!

We have three coffee drinkers in this house so coffee Is being brewed all day!

The french press method is worth the extra effort and time put in to making a cup of coffee.

I currently use a drip coffee maker and it is probably due for retirement. A French press would be a lovely alternative.

French presses make great coffee
My French press is starting to fray around the edges of the screen, letting little coffee grinds float up
I love this form of making coffee.
French press is also great to take camping! All you need is boiling water.

My husband would love this! He works overnights and then stays up with our daughter when I go work 9 to 10 hour days. He doesn't actually sleep, he gets naps.
We love coffee and would love a French Press coffeemaker
I don't think I've ever had French Pressed coffee. I'd love to try it. I don't have a grinder so I would also use store ground coffee.
Speaking of your garage sale experience...... I was the lucky person who asked for a french press coffee maker on freecycle and actually received one. I couldn't believe someone would give it away. But I was grateful. I also remember the look on my toddler's face when he managed to get my french press that I left in a spot he could reach on the counter. When I came into the room and I spotted him, he had this smile on his face. Just as I rushed towards him, he dropped it and the carafe shattered.
I love drinking coffee every morning.
I would love to try this. Thanks for the giveaway!
french press coffee is some of my favorite! simple and delicious!
This is the cleanest method of coffee presentation I've encountered. You regulate the strength of the brew and the temp of the water, lessens the bitterness from a machine.
My adult children are coffee snobs. They love a good french press. It is so fun to listen to them discuss the pros and cons of different coffees.
My mom has a French press and I love when she makes me a cup of coffee, It would be nice to do the same for her.
I have never tried French Pressed Coffee but my husband raves about it. It's his favorite way to have coffee.

My husband tried brewing his coffee this way while on vacation last year & has been contemplating purchasing one for awhile now!
I love the taste of coffee more with a french press. I don't have one currently but my Dad does and it does make it taste that much better.
French press can easily be worked into a morning routine, as daunting as it can seem at first. Just gotta get into the habit!
I have never heard of a French Press before but I sure do love coffee lol
What a great gift for me.thanks so very much for sharing.I can't wait till I get one.

I've never tried coffee made in a french press. I'd love to see how it tastes. I'm over the Keriug faze. The coffee never tasted very good.
This would be great for my mother who loves coffee and needs a new machine.
My wife likes coffee as a treat, and even though I hate that she drinks it, she would love this.

I adore a French Press coffee maker, it makes a great cup with my New Orleans own French Market coffee.
I have been getting into coffee lately. I have a percolator as well as a Keurig mini. Have been looking for a French Press so I can compare the taste with the other ways I make coffee. I love to try different flavors and strengths. MMMmmm. Coffee is good on a cold day or any day for that matter.
I love coffee that way.
it's been awhile since i've had a cup of coffee from a french press, would love to have one again.
My mom always had a French coffee press when I was a little girl. I never what it was until I was older. Now when I visit her, she makes me coffee using it. I love it and really need to get my own! It really makes wonderful coffee.
There is nothing better than drinking fresh coffee! This seems like a wonderful product!
My mom is a huge coffee drinker,as am I
My mom use to have a french press. I have no clue what happened to it over the years, but I wish she still had it! I would so "steal" it from her! lol

my fiancee is a big coffee drinker and has been asking for one of these h
As a lifelong coffee lover, I spent a good 15-20 years experimenting, trying to find the best (if not perfect) coffeemaker / method to make the best coffee. My husband too is a coffee lover and he's been in the restaurant/hospitality business for decades.
When we got married, he insisted (and the expert) that the good old fashioned perculator was the best ~ but my extensive research was very conclusive: the French Press is superior to any other method.
It took awhile (pride was a factor) but Hubby finally came around and agreed/admitted that yes the FRENCH PRESS is the tried and true best.

Love a good coffee.
I am a huge coffee drinker and I would like coffee made every which way!
I have never tried a French Press but I heard the coffee tastes much better if you use one.
I just started really getting into coffee and purchased my first coffee maker recently. I know that french pressed coffee tastes so much better and am now looking to own one.
I love the fact that you can wash it in the dishwasher!
We usually use our Keurig but I would love this for when I want a stronger cup of coffee.
My first time seeing a french press in use was when stationed in England. I learned that while many of my British friends were adept at using the press, I had a deep appreciation for another who quietly stated it was one kitchen item that defied her.
I love my coffee and have had coffee made in a French press at a friends home and it was really tasty. I would love to own one of my own.

I love French press coffee but my hubby keeps breaking them. Maybe if I win he will be more careful or I wont let him use it!
The coffee in the French Press looks delicious.
I have wanted French Press coffee maker. My mother has one and it makes great coffee.
I have had coffee in a French Press and it is Delicious. My Mother has one and makes some when I visit.
I admit that I have always wondered just what a French Press actually does. It looks like it would make delicious and fresh tasting coffee so much better than a coffeemaker.

I have never used a French Press before, but I would like to because I come across coffees and other beverages that call for one.
