Well a typical French press only makes three or four cups worth of coffee at a time anyway, so that's not going to sit around all that long, especially if you're not the only coffee drinker in the house.
We used to French press, but the coffee would always dip to slightly below ideal temperature by the second cup, so when our last carafe broke we never bothered replacing it. She drinks drip now and I use an Aero.

I tend to buy storm capable umbrella's as they are generally not flimsy and require less force in higher winds.
I prefer Knirps.

Takes me back to being a kid in the early 80s. My mom put cereal in those pitchers. That’s back when cereal and chips used to go stale in a day if they were left open.

The Freiling French Press doesn’t have a great vacuum seal to keep things hot but it’s all metal and very well built. I’ve used mine every day for 15 years or so.

I’ve broken two French presses in my life. I need this.
CosmonautJizzRocket OP t1_j7wzg0d wrote
So guys these most likely have high levels of lead. I'm too lazy to do extensive research but after some surface level internet browsing i'd say that these are in fact not BIFL if we take into consideration the possible effects they may have.
Thanks for the comments

Alright perfect thanks for the warning i'll err on the side of caution.

RTIC or ozark trail brands exactly the same as Yeti at half or less than the cost

It is highly likely that some of those contain toxic levels of lead. Not worth the risk in my opinion.

My double wall stainless steel French press is amazing. Keeps a full press hot for an hour. About 10 years old and zero signs of wear.

Carhartt makes a leather a bi fold or tri fold. I've had mine for 5 plus years and use it everyday. Spots for extra cash, card holder options, and two main spaces for cash. Cost maybe 50 bucks

I wish someone could definitively tell me how much cancer this will give me so i can decide whether or not i should keep and use them.
