About the CHAMBORD French Press Coffee Maker Discover the art of the perfect brew with the CHAMBORD French press coffee maker. The French press system is beloved by coffee aficionados worldwide for its simplicity of brewing and purity of taste. And the CHAMBORD is the original and best French press coffee maker. An icon of Bodum, the CHAMBORD is synonymous with the Bodum name. The original design dates back to the pre-war period when the Italian Attilo Calimani developed the basic principle. A true original, the CHAMBORD has a timeless design and is produced with the same superior craftsmanship its devotees worldwide have come to expect. The carafe is made of non-stain, heat-resistant borosilicate glass that won’t alter or impair the coffee’s natural flavor. The frame and lid is made from durable stainless steel that’s undergone several chrome-plating processes to result in a durable, shiny surface capable of withstanding many years of us. The handle is made from Polypropylene with a matte finish that gives a comfortable grip while serving and adds to the classic quality of the design. Stainless steel plunger prevents ground beans escaping when the coffee is poured. More environmentally friendly than many coffee-brewing methods - no paper filters or plastic capsules required. Easy to use and easy to clean.
