About the Brand
Bialetti has been making the coffee culture of Italian homes since 1919, when founder Alfonso Bialetti opened a small workshop in Omegna making aluminium goods. In 1933 he invented the Moka Express — the eight-sided stovetop pot recognised in kitchens worldwide — and built Bialetti into the brand most associated with stovetop coffee itself. A century on, it's still known for making well-built, honest coffee equipment for everyday use.
The Product
The Bialetti French Press is Bialetti's take on the classic filter-coffee plunger — a full-immersion brewer for coffee drinkers who want body and depth rather than the clean cup a filter machine gives you. It pairs a robust borosilicate glass beaker with an 18/10 stainless steel body and a thermal-insulating handle, so it feels considerably sturdier than the average glass plunger. Available in two sizes, it's a straightforward way into proper immersion brewing at home.
Key Features
Borosilicate Glass Beaker (Heat & Shock Resistant)
Built to withstand sudden temperature changes and repeated dishwasher cycles without weakening.
18/10 Stainless Steel Body (Durable Everyday Use)
A modern stainless frame protects the glass beaker and gives the press real weight and stability on the counter.
Fine Mesh Filter Plunger (Clean, Full-Bodied Cup)
Separates grounds from the brew for a rich, full-immersion cup without the fuss of paper filters.
Thermal-Insulating Handle (Comfortable, Safe Pour)
Keeps your hand cool while you pour, even with a full press of freshly brewed coffee.
Two Size Options (Brew for One or a Crowd)
Available in a 3-cup (350ml) or 8-cup (1L) size to match your household or gathering.
Who It's Built For
You want to move beyond instant or filter coffee into proper immersion brewing, without fussing over paper filters or fragile glass. Whether you're brewing a single cup or a full press for guests, this is a straightforward, durable way to do it — no plumbing, no power cord, just hot water and time.
