FAQs

Can I use this for loose-leaf tea?

Yes, the precision filtration system works perfectly for straining loose-leaf tea.

Is the carafe made of glass?

The YnysTec French Press is built with durable materials designed for heat retention; please refer to the product markings for specific material details.

How do I froth milk with this?

Pour a small amount of warm milk into the press and move the plunger up and down rapidly until the milk reaches your desired foam consistency.

Is this dishwasher safe?

Yes, the components are dishwasher safe, though hand washing is recommended to keep the silver finish pristine.

How much coffee should I use?

A general rule is one to two tablespoons of coarse grounds per 200ml of water, adjusted to your personal strength preference.

Does it keep coffee hot for a long time?

It provides excellent heat retention for the duration of the brewing process, though it is not a vacuum-insulated thermal carafe.

Troubleshooting

Plunger is hard to push down

Your grind may be too fine; ensure you are using a coarse grind specifically for French Press brewing.

Coffee tastes bitter or over-extracted

Reduce the steeping time to three minutes or ensure the water is not boiling when added to the grounds.

Excessive sediment in the cup

Verify that the fine mesh filter is properly tightened to the plunger rod and not damaged.
