Fresh Coffee Anytime, Anywhere with a Coffee Press Mug

If you're a coffee lover, you crave a fresh cup of coffee several times a day. You simply must have your coffee; it doesn't matter whether you are at home, at work or in a coffee shop. And thanks to the coffee press mug, it is possible to have that fresh cup of coffee anytime.

Also known as a press pot, plunger or cafetiere, the coffee press mug originated from France. It is usually made of glass and shaped like a normal coffee mug that can hold about 16 oz. of coffee. The mug has a round plunger that fits perfectly inside the mug and controlled from the top side.

To make coffee, fresh ground coffee is placed inside the coffee press and boiling hot water is poured on top. Using the plunger, the coffee is then pushed slowly all the way down to the bottom of the mug. The result is a freshly made cup of hot coffee and all you need to next is just add cream and sugar.

The Good Thing About the Coffee Press

This method for making fresh coffee is highly convenient, as the coffee press is inexpensive, light and easy to carry around. With the coffee press, you can make the coffee the way you prefer it and more importantly, anywhere you want it. Best of all, a coffee press produces coffee from fresh grounds, not instant coffee.

The coffee press is also sturdy, as the plunger device is not easily damaged. So you can safely invest in a good coffee press that will last for quite some time. For coffee lovers who always crave a good cup of fresh coffee to uplift their spirits and state of mind, the coffee press is a godsend.

The Bad Thing About the Coffee Press

However, the coffee press has its disadvantages as well; one of these is boiling water, which is essential to make that fresh cup of coffee, and hot water is always not that easily available.

Another disadvantage is that the coffee press plunger can sometimes leave tiny particles of coffee that float around, which can be annoying to some. And while the coffee produced by the coffee press tastes a bit on the strong side, it's not really that bad; but if you prefer your coffee on the light side, you may not enjoy the cups of coffee produced by the coffee press.
