Timemore French Press

Redefining a Classic: The Minimalist Timemore French Press

The Timemore U French Press is a modern reimagining of the world's most beloved immersion brewer. While traditional French presses are often fragile and messy, the "U" model focuses on durability, heat retention, and a minimalist aesthetic that fits the contemporary coffee bar. By combining a sleek outer sleeve with a high-precision filtration system, Timemore has created a French press that is as functional as it is beautiful.

Superior Heat Retention & Protection

One of the primary flaws of standard glass French presses is rapid heat loss. The Timemore U features a unique protective outer casing made from heat-resistant, matte-finished plastic. This sleeve acts as an insulator, keeping your brew at the optimal extraction temperature (around 92°C to 96°C) for longer, resulting in a more consistent and sweet cup. Additionally, the casing protects the inner glass from accidental knocks and drops, making it much more resilient than traditional exposed carafes.

High-Density Dual Filtration

Great French press coffee should be rich and full-bodied, but not "muddy." The Timemore U utilizes a fine-mesh stainless steel filter with a specialized silicone gasket that seals tightly against the walls of the carafe. This ensures that no coffee grounds bypass the filter during the plunge. The result is the heavy, velvety mouthfeel associated with immersion brewing, but with a significantly cleaner finish and reduced sediment compared to budget models.

Minimalist "U" Design Philosophy

Every element of the U French Press is designed with intentionality. The v-shaped spout provides a clean, dripless pour, while the ergonomic handle is integrated into the body for a streamlined look. The 450ml capacity is perfect for two small cups or one large morning mug. Whether you are brewing a coarse-ground specialty roast or steeping loose-leaf tea, the U French Press offers a sophisticated, low-maintenance experience that elevates the humble immersion method to an art form.
