Its ability to keep liquid inside piping hot for hours on end, while its exterior remains suitably cool. Incorporating Nordic design with a slightly oversized look, it features a unique valve system that gives you control over the strength of your tea and a double-walled design to keep the tea hotter for longer. From the ultra-stylish to the ultra-functional now, as we look at this solid cafetière from Heemburg – a tiny two-person company from Luxembourg that was only formed in 2018. Delicious coffee can be prepared so easily and elegantly with our French coffee press in an elegant premium design.

Easy to clean: your time is important to us, so our waterproof and rust-free press pot can be cleaned by hand or in the dishwasher in no time. Great coffee is meant to be shared and this large capacity French press can brew enough for your whole crew. The founder, Jørgen Bodum, began work on his version of the French press in the 1970s, but it was when Melior-Martin (a company that specialised in dome-shaped cafetieres) joined the team that this classic Chambord model was born. The layered stainless steel that's 33 per cent thicker sides than competitors - makes it heavy - but it's also drop-proof and going to last a very long time.I love a French press and today we are going to be exploring the best cafetières available – I had some fun when testing these believe me. High end filtering – the stainless steel mesh filters filtrate even smallest of coffee grounds and give you a seamless flavor and rich quality taste. Something a bit different now from VeoHome – a French company that makes kitchenware – often utilising stainless steel. With its unique design and aesthetic appeal, it’s a cafetière that deserves a little extra love rather than pouring a mug and shoving it back in the cupboard. Because they brew coffee in just a few minutes, they're an eco-friendly choice, and they'll save you money on takeout coffee.

If you’ve struggled to get to grips with glass cafetières, this metal version might just be what you’re after. A cafetière also puts you in control, allowing you to make your coffee as strong or weak as you like.And you don't need to know your press pot from your coffee plunger or your cafetière a piston because they're all the same thing. There are so many automated machines that can make you a coffee in seconds and at a touch of a button, that the art of waiting for a coffee to brew seems to get pushed to the background.

Good looks: a cafetière is a bit of a party piece, something to bring out with a flourish at the end of a meal. Cafetières out-score pod machines if you’re making coffee for more than one person, because you don’t have to make everyone a cup individually.The stainless steel plunger fits snugly into the carafe, making for a velvety cup of coffee with plenty of ‘coffee bloom’ on top (those frothy surface bubbles that you get on a decent cup of coffee).
