Product Description
Bodum 8.5-Ounce Travel Coffee Press with Mini Picture Insert: Kitchen & Dining. size and a mini 8 oz size. Keep your loved ones close at hand while you commute, drive cross-country, or simply sit at your desk, thanks to this customizable, mini-coffee press/travel tumbler. The bottom of the tumbler unscrews so that you can insert a small photo between two plastic sleeves across the sides. Or, insert your own graphic design or your five-year-old's latest crayon masterpiece. The choice is yours, and you can change the scene anytime. An added bonus: The tumbler is actually a coffee (or tea) press. Spoon in some coarsely ground coffee, add hot water, and after four minutes, plunge. Enjoy a strong, eight-ounce cup of fresh-brewed coffee to go. Bodum makes the plastic, handle-less tumbler in double-wall construction to better insulate either hot or cold drinks. The lid screws on tightly, eliminating worries about popping off unexpectedly, and a flip-cap over the sip hole also cuts down on spills. After use, wash by hand only (the screw-off bottom precludes dishwasher-use). Bodum also makes a 16-ounce version of the picture-insert, coffee-press tumbler. --Ann Bieri From the Manufacturer Awards and Accolades In 2004 the Bodum Chambord coffee press received the American Culinary Institute's award for best French press coffeemaker.

Place pot on a dry, flat, nonslip surface. Hold handle firmly, then pull the plunger straight up and out of the pot. 2. For each 1.25-deciliter/4-ounce cup, put 1 rounded tablespoon or 1 Bodum scoop of coarse-ground coffee into the pot. Caution: Use only coarse-ground coffee. Fine grind can clog the filter and create high pressure. Place coffee maker on a heatproof, nonslip surface. 3. Pour hot (not boiling) water into the pot. Leave a minimum of 2.5 centimeters/1 inch of space at the top. Stir the brew with a plastic spoon. Caution: Metal spoons can scratch or chip the glass beaker and cause breakage. 4. Place the plunger unit on top of the pot. Turn lid to close off the pour spout opening. (Does not apply to the Brazil models.) Do not press down. Let the coffee brew for at least 4 minutes. 5. Hold the pot handle firmly, with the spout turned away from you, then using just the weight of your hand, apply slight pressure on top of the knob to lower the plunger straight down into the pot. Lowering the plunger slowly with minimal pressure produces best results. If the filter clogs or it becomes difficult to push down the plunger you should remove the plunger from the pot, stir the brew, and then slowly plunge again. WARNING: Using excessive force can cause scalding liquid to shoot out of the pot. 6. Turn the lid to open the pour spout and then pour coffee. 7. Unscrew the filter assembly and clean the plunger unit after each use. All parts are dishwasher-safe. Safety Instructions Not for stovetop use. Check glass beaker for scratches, cracks, or chips. Do not use a pot that is scratched, chipped, or cracked. Install a replacement beaker before using the pot again. Keep children away while using. Hot water is a hazard to small children!
