Reddit mentions of Thermos 34-Ounce Vacuum Insulated Stainless-Steel Gourmet Coffee Press (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

This or cowboy coffee

My condolences.

This one won't break.

Coffee Press - $45.07

$30.77?

I like the Thermos Nissan 34-Ounce Vacuum Insulated Stainless-Steel Gourmet Coffee Press so much that I've given a few as gifts. The only mildly negative thing I'd say after over ten years of use is that as tempting as it is to leave the coffee in it as it is a Thermos, you really need to get the coffee off the grounds after about 5 minutes, (or else it will just keep getting more bitter). So, I brew in that stainless FP and then pour it into a Nissan Thermos, which will literally keep it hot for a day or more.

I don't know much about these topics, so sorry if these suggestions aren't helpful.

Does she have any nice yoga mats? Does she need any CDs to listen to?

Would she like to try a different kind of coffee? Maybe a French Press?

Moka makes a concentrated coffee, it's not really espresso. I like it as is, it's nice and rich in flavour, and highlights different flavours in your beans. As it is concentrated it's also handy for milky drinks, dumping over ice cream (affogato) etc. However if you think you will only ever enjoy filter-type coffee then you have no use for it.

In that case, let me recommend getting a french press instead. I recommend a metal one, the other ones will break and also break your heart.

I'll second the thermos french press. It's great! Vacuum insulated, and seems to be pretty indestructible, and is all metal where it counts.

Long ago, when I could afford to have someone in to clean the joint, a number of Boudums were broken in the process. I looked around and found this $25.31 stainless-steel French press. Inexpensive, works well, keeps your coffee hot while you're swilling the litre plus of brew it makes. They never managed to break it. The only thing I've done to it was to drill a second drain hole on the bottom so I could easily drain it out after running it through the dishwasher. (Everything food-related that's not cast iron in my house gets sterilized in the dishwasher.)

I <3 Coffee, I buy a dry medium or dark roast usually, in whole bean form. My typical morning cup is fresh ground and made in a french press. I grind it a little finer than usual, by preference. I heat my water up in a glass kettle on a gas range. Sometimes I add a little pinch of nutmeg to the press in addition to the grounds.

I'm fully gonna look into getting one sometime this week.

This one right

I've been very happy with the Thermos Nissan 34oz Stainless Steel Coffee Press.

It's easy to clean, won't break like many other glass presses, and keeps the coffee hot for several hours.

Three excellent options:

1
2
3

I'll probably end up getting #3 one day soon.

I've been using a caffetiere (aka moka pot) for years now, and it produces a decent cup of coffee, assuming your coffee is fresh and ground appropriately.
I also have and use french presses (again OK cups but depends on coffee quality and how its ground, having it ground for a caffetiere and using it in a french press will produce a crap cup, and vice versa).
If your worried about the fragility of the glass bodies of the french presses, then you can get something like this http://www.amazon.com/Thermos-34-Ounce-Insulated-Stainless-Steel-Gourmet/dp/B00004S1DB

It also has the benefit of keeping the coffee warm for longer.
As for all coffee making, it can take a while to nail down the technique (including grind) that make a good cup, so experiment, you will make some truly hideous cups, but once you find the correct technique, it will be worth it.

For those that want a bad ass coffee press that not only works well but keeps your coffee warm for hours

I've already bought 3 of these just so I can have one at work, at home an in my car ( I take studying seriously haha)

I've had one of these for camping for years, we've used it hundreds of times, It won't break like class and it holds heat longer if you have small (camping style) coffee cups.

Almost everyone has one of these, but they are tried and true as well.

or a smaller/cheaper backpacking style stove

you'd need to bring a pot/saucepan though for either of these stoves

I have a Nissan insulated stainless french press that I bought at Zabar's more than ten years ago. It is still working great, and it holds heat much better than a glass carafe french press. The price is about half that of the Frieling.

They have a french press but it doesn't appear to be in the sale. http://www.amazon.com/Thermos-Nissan-34-Ounce-Insulated-Stainless-Steel/dp/B00004S1DB
