Full details
The Bodum Chambord Coffee Maker is ideal for individual coffee drinkers or couples who value a traditional, full-bodied brew. Its primary benefit is the ability to produce rich, aromatic coffee using a simple immersion process, though users should be aware that its 0.35-litre capacity limits it to a maximum of three small cups per brew.

Can I place the glass carafe on a stove?

Should I use boiling water?

Troubleshooting
Coffee grounds in the cup
Use a coarser grind of coffee or ensure the stainless steel filter screen is tightened securely to the plunger.
Plunger is difficult to press down
If the resistance is too high, your coffee grind is likely too fine. Use a coarser setting next time.
Water leakage around the lid
Ensure the lid is properly aligned with the spout and that the plunger rod is perfectly vertical during the press.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Chambord is straightforward: ensure the mesh filter is firmly attached to the press rod before your first use. For maintenance, the carafe and plunger assembly are completely dishwasher safe. If washing by hand, use a soft sponge to avoid scratching the glass. Avoid using metal spoons inside the glass carafe to prevent potential cracks or chips, and always ensure the glass is not placed directly on a stove burner, as it is designed for immersion brewing, not direct heating.
