I was in Vancouver yesterday and my portable French press came with me-of course!  I also found the website for the company-PlanetaryDesign-though the style I have doesn’t seem to be available any more-coffee storage in the bottom.  So how did it perform?  Very well.  It started off with regular coffee and the regular lid-the mug holds almost a full four cup pot, btw-and as you would expect it kept the coffee warm for a good long time.

 

Later in the afternoon, when I needed a nice pick me up, I pulled out my little reseviour of Rhumba, heated some water, and press-to1!  Coffee!  Usually, I have to say, I’m not a fan of French press coffee black., but this was okay.  Next time I’ll make sure the water is quite hot and add some milk before I put the plunger lid on.

 

A good travel mug for sure!
