We have a very nice stainless steel french press. Works well.

I do not know what is a French press. Is a Bodum coffee maker?

Yes, that is the type. Bodum is probably the biggest manufacturer of
french press coffee makers. The one I have at home is from Bodum, and
is made of pyrex glass. If you do a google search for "french press",
you will find lots of websites with instructions on how to use one
properly. The one I have on my boat is made of unbreakable lexan
plastic, and is not from Bodum. I bought it at a camping equipment
store.

I've found Lexan French Presses at Backpacking stores that are both
light and unbreakable.

Might be a good idea. Good to keep glass off the boat if possible.

Thanks,

Mike.

That's exactly what I have. It's great, and it was about $15 as I
remember. I liked the coffee it made so much, that I got a fancy glass
one for home. This summer, I'm going to add a hand powered grinder to
the boat setup!
