When Bodum took over a small clarinet factory in
Normandy in 1982, it was not because of the fine orchestra clarinets
they were producing but because of a relatively unknown coffee maker
called the Chambord which they produced as well. The reason the French
press coffee maker has become one of the most popular coffeemakers in
the world is pure and simple, taste. The materials (glass and stainless
steel) are completely taste-free so nothing comes between your ground
coffee beans. This is exactly the reason why coffee tasters use this
method to determine the quality of coffee beans. No paper filter not
only means no waste, but that the coffee bean’s essential oils go
directly to your cup, delivering the flavor that is lost on paper
filters. Simplicity works best and is the reason why the Chambord’s
design has not changed a bit from its original drawing. Make taste, not
waste!
