Bodum Score This Weekend.

I stopped by Tuesday Morning this weekend and scored a couple nice Bodum finds. My first find was a set of the Bodum thermal Double wall glasses. They were ~15.2 oz cups, which was perfect. I had been looking for a larger size. These are my first Bodum thermal double wall glasses, although I have been wanting to pick up a set for a while. Next I hope to find some of the 2 oz espresso cups.

My second Bodum find was this neat little gadget:


 I had never seen anything like it before. I have not broke it in yet, but I will report back once I do. I had been in the market for a smaller french press. Maybe this device will fill that niche.

That's pretty cool.

Can it do the reverse pull? 

I love those double wall Bodum glasses, BTW.  Mrs. MMW found the iced tea version (tall,skinny, about 14oz) on clearance at (gasp) Starbucks.  I think we paid $20 for a set of four

It should be able to do a reverse pull. There is a simple rubber flap that surrounds the plungers. It's funny you should mention that. Since the grounds are contained in the metal "basket", I thought plunging up and down would help circulate the water through the grounds.

Yeah, I'm diggin' the glasses a lot. They are short and fat, which would not have been my first choice, but the low center of gravity has been nice. And the are large enough to hold a beer
