Stanley did hit a HOME run with this coffee press. It makes better coffee then I can at home. But did you know it also makes a good veggie streamer, bring about 3/4 of a inch of water to a boil, put your veggies inside the press and push down about half way put your lid on and steam for your desired time. Wonderful and clean up is a snap.

Tony Pfister Wow that's a great idea. I'll have to try that out. Thanks Tony.

I have this and I love it. What's also great is I can store a small bag of coffee, a little sugar, and my camp spoon inside of it. Really awesome design.

Have used mine daily for over a year. Outstanding coffee press, and great to pack on trips. Excellent value.

LOVE that piece of kit! I have used mine for years now. Hasn't failed me yet. When my USMC son was readying for his most recent deployment I bought him one to take with him. During those brief moments of in the field R&R he says that he "guards it in full battle rattle" so it doesn't grow legs!.

When my MARINES Son is stateside he is mostly stationed out of PARRIS ISLAND but his small elite team goes wherever they are needed most at any given time. He is often at LEJEUNE, too, but of late he was at PALMS. I never know until he tells me, often only after he has returned. You "understand" it's that "loose lips and ships" thing so I don't ask unless I have a "need to know". Thanks again, I'll give him your kind regards when next we talk.

Let it set for a bit, throw in a small amount of cooler water, then put your press in. Super smooth coffee.

Great American Survival As I used to travel for work often, I collected the coffee packs in hotels. Just drop them in a small pot and, voila!! Since I’ve retired, I have a source for the packs, but it’s infrequent and I can’t depend on a constant supply. So, a couple of months ago, I picked up a Stanley French Press. It does a great job!! Nothing like fresh morning coffee by a campfire. I can use the pot, without the sleeve, for boiling water and other camp fixings.

I have this. I use it....a lot. Word of advice: don't press the plunger with the lid on it like this guy did. It works a lot better and you don't have to push as hard. And remember not to cook or heat water with the cover on it either.

Just bought one tonight

Is it large enough to hold the gas can?

I just bought this and plan to buy another for the BOL. I'm curious about the type of grounds used vs. the flavor return rendered in the finished product. For example, will it work well with a coarse ground, like Folgers (the staple around our house because it's cheap and widely available) or do you need a finer grind? I plan to buy a few of these for different purposes such as home preparedness, BOL comfort, and for use in the field when I go to disaster areas as a HAM operator. Another question I have is, how well has it held up since this video was made in 2017?

@greatamericansurvival

So can you put the coffee grounds inside of the plastic filter, let it steep and then just pull the filter out along with the coffee grounds? That way, you can let extra coffee sit in the pot without it over-brewing. I call it the "French pull"
