Lovely photos and sentiment! A small but important point to add: Metal spoons can make very fine scratches in glass. Normally, this isn’t much of an issue as these may be imperceptible. In the case of glass press, under intense heat and regularly undergoing rapid changes of temperature – here warming under water is a good step – these very fine scratches might lead to a catastrophic, potentially injurious, and at the very least messy failure of your French pressure and your first cup of the day with it. C

I’m not certain how often or how likely this issue is to present itself but it would concern me if I were using a discount press perhaps not manufactured to the standards of the better known brands. Either way, I play it safe and use a non-metallic spoon for my stirring.

I love the French Press for iced coffee. I haven’t actually tried it for hot coffee. I’ll give it a try and let you know what I think!

I used to love pushing the plunger down as a kid!
Your grinder is so fun.
