Kindly check out this video of the Oskar Sowden SoftBrew taking on the classic French press method of coffee brewing. The SoftBrew is like a cross between a French press pot and a loose-leaf tea brewer. It also uses some cool technology; the stainless steel tube that holds the coffee has more than 500,000 laser etched holes.
While I’ve been on a Chemex kick in 2010, French press was my coffee brewing method of choice for the last 15 years or so. The SoftBrew offers some nice advantages over a standard French press pot. First, it’s made of porcelain so it retains heat better than the thin glass beakers used in most French press pots. More importantly, you’re able to take out the coffee grinds after the optimal brewing time is reached. This is huge if you want your coffee to taste great well after it’s brewed.
If you have any questions about SoftBrew (or coffee in general), please let me know!

I just use a regular pot Ray. Kind of a fire and forget lol. Then again, the coffee I drink isn't high end.
Fresh beans or pre-ground?
pre-ground. Community Coffee with Chicory. Unless I go to a local coffee shop and get Banana’s Foster coffee or Southern Pecan.
Gah! Buy a grinder or claim my old one.
I don't drink a lot of coffee but I do know that buying pre-ground coffee is like drinking an open beer flat beer. Whole beans in my casa!
No matter how you brew the coffee, I speak from experience when I say that coffee is guaranteed to taste better when you drink it from an RPad.tv coffe mug or travel mug.
Wow… didn't mean to double post there.

hi there,
actualy you can leave the filter in. Surprisingly the coffee never get's bitter, I leave mine 30-40 mn and coffee taste good. The longer the stronger of course, but never bitter. You should try and let us know your thoughts.
