A while back When a friend bought me a french press coffee maker,
I found that it was easy to use and made the best coffee I'd
ever had.
That is, until the
2nd cup... that's when I found the press didn't keep the
coffee hot. Faced with this dilemma, I met the challenge head
on with
some wacky innovations...
Decanting
into
pre-heated thermos.
Oxidization from decanting
affected taste adversely.
Covering with
tea towels. Ineffective.
Wrapping
french press with
oven mitts and elastic bands. Close!
But crazy!
Re-heating
2nd mug
in microwave. 1.Inconsistent
heat 2.Taste altered
3.Additional time and energy.
While these ideas worked to varying degrees,
each 'solution' created new problems!
There must be a better way!
The concept of keeping
the heat in made sense...
After
much consideration and coffee-inspired conversation with
my
wife and a friend, the perfect design came into focus.
