French press

Steeping coffee maker

A French press is a device for brewing coffee: coarse grounds steep in hot water, then a mesh plunger pushes them to the bottom, separating them from the liquid.

The method produces rich, full-bodied coffee.

I made a pot in the French press this morning.

French press also names an exercise where you extend weight overhead while lying down, targeting the triceps.
