Why is pulling the plunger out entirely necessary for proper storage? I always just push mine all the way through so the rubber isn't under any tension.
Disagreed on the paper filters, I personally enjoy using a metal filter to ensure the oils from the coffee beans are not filtered out. I suppose it is all subjective.
- angst_ridden 3y agoThat works too. I call it "proper" because it removes one step before I have coffee, which, no matter how trivial, is a big deal for me in the morning. Interesting about the filter. I prefer super dark roast, Italian espresso-grind coffees. The paper filters give me a much smoother brew. Of course, as you say, taste is entirely subjective! I'm envious, because I'd rather have just one reusable filter rather than go through a stack of paper discs each year.
- joezydeco 3y agoWhen the plunger is at the end of travel and out of tension, the cap won't fit on. I just tried screwing on my cap and it forces the plunger back into the shaft, compressing it.
- pavon 3y agoYeah, so you just set it down cap up, not screwed in. Takes up less space than keeping the plunger separate, and is just as good on the plunger.
