The Casablanca by Grosche is a French coffee press that will produce the best flavor from any coffee or tea you put into it. Designed for everyday use, this coffee press not only looks good but works great. This type of manual-operated coffee maker is regarded as the best way to brew coffee to enjoy the flavor as it was intended. By fully infusing the course grounds (finely ground coffee can seep through the filter), the flavors and oils can be fully extracted, unlike electric coffee makers or pod coffee makers. As well, coffee prices may be high at your local café, while you can make your own premium coffee right at home with a French press!
The Casablanca French press by Grosche has a dual filter system, one on the main press and another on the lid. The filter that presses your coffee or tea is fully stainless steel without any plastic parts, unlike what's found from other leading manufacturer's products. When you make your French press coffee or French press tea, turn the lid to close the press while your coffee or tea steeps, and turn it again to open it to pour. That will retain heat and allow for better flavor for your coffee or tea.
With the open design of the Casablanca French press, it is also perfectly suited to making loose leaf tea. Just put your tea in, add hot water, place the filter on the beaker without pressing it down and allow your tea to steep. When the tea has steeped, press the filter down to control the steeping and separate the tea leaves from the tea. Pour your eta and enjoy!
The Casablanca from Grosche is for the true connoisseur of coffee or tea. It is easy to clean, does not require replaceable filters, and is dishwasher safe. Replacement carafes are available from Grosche.
