MIRA20 oz Insulated French Press - Stainless Steel Coffee & Tea Maker - Double Wall Temperature Control Brewer, Pearl Blue

I travel extensively with my job, both in Europe and USA. it always surprises me just how poor tea and coffee making provision is. Now, I have to confess, I'm not a morning kind of guy and need a serious, European style strong, large coffee to get things working in the morning. This MIRA coffee pot is the perfect size, 20 fluid oz ( for you 'Mericans) or 600 ml ( for us "rest of the World " people). In case you are wondering, this is a seriously large cup. The MIRA is, frankly, pretty bomb proof. Solidly made, and all Stainless steel construction, so very easy to rinse and clean. it is small enough to fit, even in carry on luggage. It comes with three spare stainless steel plunger filters and keeps the coffee really hot whilst you make the coffee then shower and get yourself mobile in the morning. Should you want to, you can even make noodle meals in it ( those who travel loads and arrive at the hotel after the restaurant has closed will understand this). Quality piece of kit. I will not be leaving to travel without it. Awesome.

I decided to buy this French press after my previous one broke, with the primary purpose of using it for brewing coffee. I was pleasantly surprised by the durability and sturdiness of the filter set, which is equipped with a high-quality mesh. This ensures that the coffee grounds are effectively separated, resulting in a smooth and flavorful cup of coffee.One standout feature of this French press is its exceptional heat retention. After pouring hot water and allowing the coffee to steep, I found that the press was highly effective at preserving the temperature throughout the brewing process. This means that each cup of coffee I pour from the French press remains delightfully hot, allowing me to savor the flavors for a longer time.Furthermore, the design and construction of this French press are solid and reliable. The materials used are of good quality, giving me confidence that it will withstand regular use for years to come. Its sleek appearance also adds a touch of elegance to my coffee brewing routine.Having experienced the excellent performance and durability of this French press, I am genuinely looking forward to many enjoyable years of brewing and sipping hot, delicious coffee from it. It has become an essential part of my daily coffee ritual, and I highly recommend it to any coffee lover seeking a reliable and long-lasting brewing option.

I bought this as a replacement to my other (and first) french press, which was made of glass. I was looking for something more durable since my other press cracked at the base and developed a hole. Really pleased with this press! The filter/strainer on the inside fits snugly so I have not had any issues with finding grounds in my coffee after pushing the plunger down. And thanks to the tip in the instructions about stirring the grounds immediately after hot water is added, the coffee turns out stronger and thicker - so I have been able to reduce the amount of grounds I am using. If you're a coffee lover, you can't beat the taste of brew made in a french press. Get one!!

This is a very good french press made of food grade stainless steel. I'm quite happy with the quality of the coffee it makes. I didn't detect any metallic taste. The filter on it is the standard, single, stainless steel screen. It came with 3 replacement screens, which is a nice touch. Like other french presses I've used, it leaves a little fine sediment (aka "sludge") in the bottom of the mug. Maybe that's caused by the way I grind the coffee. I don't have a fancy burr grinder.The size is advertised as 20 oz. You can't actually make 20 oz of coffee with it. I think the maximum you could make without spilling coffee grounds out of the spout is about 18 oz. It's enough for my large morning mug of coffee.What made me take off one star is that this press is not especially well insulated. It's clearly not vacuum insulated. It will keep coffee hot longer than a glass french press, but an hour later it's going to be cold. I'm ok with that. I just want to drink the first half very slowly and then pour the rest of it.

Love the insulated, smaller capacity than needed for two people but slightly more than one cup. Sturdy. Easy to clean

Wish it was dishwasher safe

Purchased this french press to bring on a trip to Mexico but it’s since turned into my every day coffee maker even when I’m not traveling! I like the sleek, modern design. It’s very sturdy and easy to clean. I originally purchased the 12 Oz press but found that to be much too small so exchanged it for the 20 Oz and I’m so glad I did! It’s large enough for making 2 cups of coffee yet still small enough to pack easily in a suitcase/store in a cupboard. Buy this press!!

After breaking the glass on 2 French Presses, I decided to go stainless steel. I LOVE this French press!! It makes excellent coffee and keeps it much warmer than glass does. It's just the right size and sturdy. This was definitely a great purchase!
