Overview
Not an electric brewer, the Bodum Brazil is a manual French press: steep coarse grounds in hot water, then push the steel plunger down to filter them out. The carafe is heat resistant borosilicate glass in a plastic frame.
Full flavor without paper filters or pods makes it a simple, low waste brewer. Some fine sediment passes the mesh, and the glass needs careful handling.
Who it's for
Home brewers who like rich coffee and a low waste routine will use it daily. People wanting a programmable or insulated brewer should choose an electric drip machine.

Performance notes
Coffee steeps in full contact with water, so flavor depends on grind size and steep time. The steel mesh lets oils through for body, along with some fine particles. Glass does not hold heat, so pour soon after pressing.
