Le Creuset Stoneware Cafetière French Press with Stainless Steel Plunger, 1 Litre, Serves 3-4 Cups, Volcanic, 91028200090000

Product Information

The performance is great, but I don’t think anybody will be buying this cafetière just because it makes good coffee. It will be for the design and style that Le Creuset have stood form and it will be to have a magnificent looking item in their kitchen.

To find out how much each cafetiere lets through, we poured the contents of each cafetiere through a separate filter screen and assessed how much was left on the screen. With the double insulated walls, this cafetière can keep your coffee warm for around an hour. The frosted non-slip handle makes pouring easy and comfortable. The lid also has a knob that doesn’t get warm which is always a plus.The filter screen in your cafetiere should effectively push the coffee grounds to the bottom of the beaker without letting too many through. Cafetieres that filter poorly will leave you with bitter grounds floating around in your cup.

This has everything I want though. It stands tall and proud, in one of three colours (steel, copper or brushed gold) and has a dignified elegance to it. It holds itself so well and seems to command respect. You could imagine it placed proudly on a table at a royal banquet at the turn of the last century, but it still wouldn’t look out of place on a modern kitchen counter. It is a stunning cafetière, and for that reason alone, this should be on your shortlist. Cafetieres are much less clunky than coffee machines and take up a significantly smaller place in your kitchen or dining room. Coffee shouldn’t be a hassle, and cafetières make the process so much easier and enjoyable! There is something utterly charming about them though. Those few minutes of waiting for your drink to brew are wonderful moments that those of us that still use cafetières can appreciate – even if you can only justify that time at a weekend. We tried out the 1-litre version of the Meelio French Press coffee machine, but it is also available in a smaller 350 ml version. The cafetière has a double-wall construction that can keep your drink warmer for longer periods of time. The double filter (or multi-screen) system will prevent ground coffee particles from leaking through. Compact and lightweight, you can take this coffee maker on your travels. If you are not happy with it, then Gator offers a 100% total satisfaction policy, so you can return or replace your item.

The Groenenberg has different size models available. We have chosen the 0.6 litre model for our feature. With this size, you can fit up to 3 cups of coffee with ease. The practical size also means that you can take this cafetière on your travels – it would be perfect for camping! Cafetieres can be a nuisance to clean. Coffee grounds easily get lodged in the nooks and crannies of the press, so it's important that your cafetiere is easy to take apart and clean.

The best cafetières you can buy in 2023

There isn’t much to dislike about this VeoHome cafetière at all. I love the design, the 0.75-litre capacity is decent and everything else works as well as you would expect, so if the design suits you, this is a great option at the higher end of the price scale. It looks fabulous. Almost combining the look of a cafetière with that of a teapot – a lovely smooth, bulbous look, with a beautiful stainless steel finish. This is different to almost any other cafetière that I have seen and has a really stylish look to it. As Barista & Co. claims, the One Brew is actually a four-in-one brewer, working just as well for cold brew, loose leaf tea and iced tea as it does for regular hot coffee. While this is true, it’s not a perk that’s necessarily exclusive to the One Brew. In fact, there’s nothing to say you can’t make tea with any of the cafetiere’s on our list.
