What size of French Press?

BeerAdvocate · 09-15-2009, 01:14 PM

I want to get a French Press, but do not know what size I should get.
I want something that will hold about the same amount as a regular coffee pot since me and my wife have no problem finishing a whole pot.
What size should I get?

The 48-oz Bodum Columbia (stainless/thermal walls) the the bees knees.

unlimited budget, bodum columbia; conventional budget, any bodum is very good. never buy bonjour or off brands - you'll regret it.

That columbia is beautiful.
I remember Tristan had a stainless one also, I can't remember the brand, though. More cone shaped, as I recall.
