Product Information

Full details

The Café Stål Bellux 700ml Thermal Cafetière is designed for coffee enthusiasts who appreciate the rich, full-bodied flavour of French press brewing without the fragility of glass. Its primary benefit is the double-walled stainless steel construction that provides superior thermal insulation, keeping your coffee hot for extended periods. While it excels in durability and heat retention, users should note that the metallic build prevents you from seeing the coffee extraction process, requiring reliance on your timer instead of visual cues.

How many cups does the 700ml model serve?

It serves approximately 2 to 3 standard mugs or about 6 espresso-sized cups.

Is this cafetière dishwasher safe?

Yes, the stainless steel body and plunger assembly are dishwasher safe.

Can I use this for loose leaf tea?

Yes, the fine mesh filter works exceptionally well for steeping loose leaf tea.

Does the handle get hot?

No, the hollow handle design is intended to remain cool to the touch during normal use.

What grind should I use?

A coarse grind is recommended for the best flavor and to ensure the plunger operates smoothly.

Is the exterior finish easy to maintain?

Troubleshooting

Plunger feels difficult to press down

The grind size may be too fine; switch to a coarser setting for your coffee beans.

Coffee has too much sediment

Ensure the filter screen is tightened securely and verify there are no gaps between the mesh and the carafe wall.

Coffee goes cold too quickly

Pre-heat the carafe by rinsing it with hot water before adding your grounds.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent heat retention due to double-wall design
  • Shatterproof and highly durable stainless steel construction
  • Easy to clean and dishwasher safe
  • Precision spout design minimizes spills and drips

Cons

  • Solid metal design makes it impossible to monitor brewing visually
  • Slightly heavier than traditional glass French presses
  • Requires careful cleaning around the mesh filter to avoid old oil buildup

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before your first use, wash the cafetière with warm, soapy water to remove any manufacturing residue. When brewing, always place the unit on a flat, heat-resistant surface. Avoid using metal utensils inside the cafetière to prevent scratching the inner stainless steel surface. For daily care, simply disassemble the plunger mechanism by unscrewing the filter head to rinse away oils and fines. While the unit is dishwasher safe, hand washing the filter mesh occasionally is recommended to ensure long-term performance. Never use harsh abrasive pads, as these can mar the brushed stainless steel finish.
