Show 5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for camping and travel I bought this for camping. It worked perfectly! It makes A LOT more coffee than I thought. The filter slips in easily when metal outer container is heated. The item is sturdy and well made.

Please try again later.Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2022 I’d been looking to upgrade my camping coffee prep as previously I’d had a percolator I’d inherited and everyone knows the issues with those. I had a French press but the stem ended up having a defect that wouldn’t filter the coffee right. It also wasn’t made for camping. When I saw this it jumped out at me. It is perfectly made for travel and home use. I used corse ground coffee and it came out perfect with no grounds in my cup, just a bit of sediment. I also had no issues with the plunge. I used my index fingers and thumbs to press evenly on the top. I’d say it’s good for 3 regular sized cups of coffee. Clean up was a breeze and I just let it air dry on a dish rack Only bummer is it doesn’t work on induction stove tops. Unfortunately in the question section someone listed that it does but I assure you it does not. Luckily I have a kettle at home that does induction so not a big deal or a reason to downvote. I use a gas range for camping so won’t be an issue there. If you’re looking for a cheap, easy way to make coffee at home or on the road, this is the one. Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2022 Such a smart and simple way to get a French pressed cup of coffee in while you're camping. Just fill with water, boil, add your coffee grounds of choice, place the presser in and press the coffee grounds down to beable to pour your coffee out without any grounds! I recommend for an easy, fresh and good tasting coffee while camping/traveling. Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2022 I bought my first one almost a decade ago and it's the only coffee pot for me! I use it twice a day and I never had any problems until the welds on the bracket popped off on one side. After making 2 pots of coffee a day for almost 10 years, that's extremely impressive and I didn't have to think twice about buying another one! Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2022 I don’t understand the negative reviews this product has. I just received this in the mail and used it at home to make some coffee just to try it out. I absolutely could not believe how easy it was! Just put the coffee grounds and water in, let the coffee brew for about 5 minutes, and then slowly press the plastic filter plunger down. No splashes, no issues, it went down perfectly. Make sure you put it in straight so that the spout is perfectly opposite the handle to ensure smooth pouring. I messed mine up and it was crooked, but I was still able to pour a smooth cup without spilling. The coffee was *so good*. The filter is just perfect and it honestly came out better than my regular coffee machine that I usually use. I can’t wait to bring it camping and have hot fresh coffee every morning, and it will make the perfect amount for two big mugs for my partner and I—and you could probably get a third or maybe even fourth cup out of it if you want. For a kettle and french press in one that takes up so little room and is so versatile, you really can’t beat the price. I love this little thing! Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2022 I love a good strong cup of coffee and this worked way better than the percolator I used to have. Boils quick super wast to clean. 5.0
out of 5 stars Easy to use I love a good strong cup of coffee and this worked way better than the percolator I used to have. Boils quick super wast to clean. Images in this review Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2022 Stanley has been a flagship of outdoor and home use gear. Love this french-press mug; I have this and Stanley Adventure Camp Cook Set - 24oz Kettle with 2 Ceramic Cups in my car, backpack, and slingbag. The only issue I have is that I hope Stanley actually make a molle pouch for these products. Most pouches you can find are sized for 3x3x9 bottles, the Adventure Camp cook set is fine, but the French press is much bigger. I hope Stanley is reading the reviews and listen to their patrons. Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2022 This french press made some excellent coffee on a recent camping trip. The only problem I had was getting it to sit properly on my camp stove as the diameter was almost small enough to pass through the middle of the grate. Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2022 I have to admit I am a coffee snob. I don't do starbucks. I like small local shops that do crazy flavors without the added sugary syrups (flavor added during the roast process). At home we have a BUNN drip machine, a pourover flask by Chemex, and two of the vintage Pyrex percolators in different sizes. The only setup we didnt have was a french press. I picked this up for camping since it was stainless and all pieces could nest inside. I like how little space it takes up and it seems to be built well. So right off the bat, all was well with the purchase. Once we tried it out though!!! Oh Lord, this may be the best flavor we have ever gotten out of our beans (Angel Food Cake flavor). We always grind fresh and we brew multiple ways. I dont know if this specific coffe would taste this good in ANY french press, or if this one is just special lol. Seriously. We may keep it in the house to use on
a regular basis rather than pack it away with the camping stuff. It blew our minds. Took off one star in the "Light Weight" category bc I am comparing it to snowpeak titanium setups etc. that I had been considering. Then again I never tried them, so they may not be as good at brewing coffee.

There are are better quality stainless steel coffee presses out there and cheaper. Also the world wide guarantee doesn’t apply in the UK…..shame on Stanley 5.0 out of 5 stars Coffee loving outdoors people, you need this.

time.. 5.0 out of 5 stars Espectacular 👌 Reviewed in Mexico on January 19, 2021 Gran prensa francesa, pero primero empezare por lo malo: 5.0 out of 5 stars Espectacular 👌 Gran prensa francesa, pero primero empezare por lo malo: 5.0 out of 5 stars Well made Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 26, 2019 Love good coffee while out and about How much coffee do you put in the Stanley French press?For mild to medium smooth coffee, use a ratio of around 10:1, or ½ cup of whole beans. If you like stronger coffee, try ¾ cups.
What is the ratio for coffee grounds to water for a French press?While the water is heating, grind your coffee. French press coffee calls for a coarse, even grind. We recommend starting with a 1:12 coffee-to-water ratio. If you're using 350 grams of water, you'll want 30 grams of coffee.
How much coffee do I put in a 32 oz French press?In standard kitchen measurements, a large mug of coffee (16 oz of water) requires 6 Tbsp of ground coffee for a 1:15 ratio, 8 Tbsp for a strong 1:12 ratio, and 5 Tbsp for a weak 1:17 ratio. Most French presses are 32 oz, which means 12 Tbsp of ground coffee at regular strength.
