Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your French Press, ensure all components are thoroughly cleaned before the first use. When brewing, always use hot—not boiling—water to avoid scorching the coffee grounds. To maintain the glass integrity, avoid using metal spoons for stirring; instead, use a wooden or plastic spatula to prevent scratching the inner walls. While the unit is dishwasher-safe, hand washing with mild detergent is recommended for the mesh filter to prolong its lifespan and ensure it remains free of fine particles. Always place the unit on a flat, heat-resistant surface during use to ensure stability.
