Know before you buy
The Varia Pro Press features a specialized ultra-fine stainless steel mesh filter designed to eliminate the sediment and grit typically found in traditional French press coffee. This results in a cleaner, more tea-like body while still maintaining the rich, nuanced oils of immersion brewing.
The Varia Pro Press has an 18 oz capacity, which is ideal for brewing one to two standard-sized cups of coffee at a time.
Yes, the body is constructed from high-quality stainless steel, making it highly resistant to rust, staining, and accidental drops. It is designed to be a long-lasting, low-maintenance centerpiece for your daily coffee routine.
Because the filter is made of high-quality stainless steel, it is easy to clean. Simply rinse it under warm water after each use to remove coffee grounds, and occasionally use a mild soap to ensure no oils build up in the mesh.
While the ultra-fine filter allows for a slightly wider range of grind sizes than a traditional press, a medium-coarse grind remains the gold standard for immersion brewing. You can experiment with slightly finer settings to see how it affects the clarity of your cup.
