Our take on the fit
Same method, a different vessel
Change
Consider Columbia when a stainless steel brewing body is the change you specifically want. Confirm the care instructions before choosing.
Skip
Skip it if you need automatic brewing, verified dishwasher care or a sealed travel vessel. A heat-retention duration has not been established.
What you need
- Ground coffee suitable for a French press, hot water and a way to heat it.

Editorial fit notes
- Consider this manual steel press when a non-glass brewing body is wanted and an existing press does not meet the need.
