With its long and proud history, Rome is the city that started it all. The perfect name, then, for this traditional metal cafetière. Like the city itself, the Roma coffee maker doesn't need fancy gimmicks to get attention. It keeps things simple, with an elegant finish and a reliable, low-maintenance design. Use it every day, and enjoy rich, aromatic coffee without hassle. It's fitted with a fine-mesh reusable stainless steel filter, which extracts those full, throaty flavours while keeping grounds firmly separated. This means every cup is as smooth and silky as the best café coffee. Fancy a quick brew? This small French press makes 350ml (0.5 pints, 12 fl oz) of coffee, which equates to three small cups or one generous mugful. The beaker is made of thermal shock-resistant borosilicate glass and sits firmly in a robust, rust-resistant stainless steel frame. The frame incorporates a wide-set handle, too, which is coated in silicone for extra comfort and heat protection. The Roma French press comes securely packed in an attractive La Cafetière gift box. It would make a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves simple, elegant style and great coffee. The beaker is dishwasher safe, while the frame should be hand washed for best results. Replacement filter included.
