FRENCH PRESS

The French press originated in the 19th century and got a patent update in 1929 by Italian Attilio Calimani, who dubbed it the "Press-Pot." It gained fame in Europe and rose to prominence in the '50s and '60s for its hands-on brewing. By the '80s, it was a global hit with diverse designs. It's still a cherished way to brew bold, aromatic coffee, needing minimal equipment and prep.
