Bodum Brazil 51oz French Press Coffee Maker — Borosilicate Glass, Stainless-Steel Plunger

Designed and made in Portugal, the Bodum Brazil brings straightforward, sustainable coffee brewing to home kitchens and small offices. The 51-ounce carafe and stainless-steel plunger let you steep multiple cups at once without filters or pods, while the durable borosilicate glass resists thermal shock. Its BPA-free polypropylene base and handle provide secure handling, and the unit is dishwasher-safe for easy cleanup.

How does this French press make coffee and what’s the brewing routine?

Brewing in the Brazil is simple and manual: add coarse coffee grounds, pour just-off-boil water, let the grounds steep, and press the plunger to separate liquid from grounds. The immersion method extracts oils and soluble compounds that standard paper filters remove, producing a richer mouthfeel.

• Add coarsely ground coffee to the carafe — about 1 ounce (28 g) per 15 ounces (450 ml) of water as a starting ratio.
• Pour hot water (just off boil) evenly over grounds and stir briefly to saturate.
• Steep for about 4 minutes, then press the stainless-steel plunger down slowly and serve.
• dishwasher-safe parts make rinsing and deeper cleaning straightforward.

What materials and construction ensure durability and safety?

The Brazil combines German borosilicate glass with BPA-free polypropylene and stainless-steel components for a balance of heat resistance and structural support. Borosilicate glass tolerates temperature changes better than ordinary glass, while the polypropylene frame protects the carafe and provides a comfortable handle.

• Heat-resistant borosilicate glass carafe manufactured to resist thermal shock.
• BPA-free polypropylene base and handle for secure grip and extra protection.
• Stainless-steel plunger and mesh filter designed for reliable separation of grounds.
• Made in Portugal to Bodum’s quality standards.

How much coffee can it brew and where does it fit in my routine?

The 51-ounce capacity is ideal for serving multiple people or filling travel mugs in one brew. It suits households that drink several cups throughout the morning, small office kitchens, or anyone who prefers to brew a larger batch and keep it warm in a thermal carafe after pressing.

• 51 ounces (approximately 1.5 liters) serves 4–6 standard cups depending on pour size.
• Large enough for brunches, shared workspaces, or continuous morning use.
• Pairs well with preheating the carafe to maintain temperature during steeping.
• Replacement glass carafes are available for purchase if needed.
