Question 1

What are the steps to properly brew coffee using my Espro Travel Press 0.35L?

Accepted Answer

Here are the steps to properly brew coffee using your Espro Travel Press 0.35L:
1. Start by weighing your coffee beans and measuring out 20 grams for every 100 milliliters of water you will be using.
2. Boil fresh, filtered water and let it sit for about 30 seconds to cool down slightly.
3. Place a paper filter into the travel press and rinse it with hot water to remove any impurities and preheat the filter.
4. Add your coffee grounds to the filter and pour in your hot water. Use a spoon or spatula to gently stir and ensure that all of the grounds are wet.
5. Let the coffee sit for about 4 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse and the coffee to bloom.
6. Start pressing down on the plunger slowly but steadily, making sure not to apply too much pressure as this can cause the coffee to be too strong or bitter.
7. Once all of the water has been pressed out of the filter, pour your freshly brewed espresso into a cup and enjoy!
Remember to clean your Espro Travel Press 0.35L after each use by wiping it down with a damp cloth and disinfecting any removable parts. Store it in a dry place to keep it in good condition for future uses.

Question 2

Why is there a gap between the plunger and the pot when I'm trying to press coffee?

Accepted Answer

There could be several reasons for this gap, including:
1. The plunger might not fit snugly into the pot's spout. Check that it is properly seated and aligned with the spout.
2. The pot's filter basket may need adjustment or replacement if it's too loose or worn out, allowing space between the plunger and the coffee grounds.
3. There could be an issue with the seal between the plunger and the pot itself. Ensure that the plunger is firmly attached to its stem and fits securely into the pot's spout.
4. The pressure of the plunger might not be strong enough to create a tight seal against the coffee grounds. Apply more force when pressing down on the plunger handle.
5. If you're using pre-ground coffee, try grinding your own beans to ensure they're evenly distributed and compacted in the filter basket. This will help eliminate any gaps between the plunger and the grounds.

Question 3

How do I properly clean and maintain my Espro Travel Press 0.35L to ensure optimal performance and longevity?

Accepted Answer

To clean and maintain your Espro Travel Press 0. L, follow these simple steps:

1. Rinse the press with hot water after each use. This will remove any leftover coffee grounds or oils that can build up over time and affect the taste of future brews. Deep clean the press once a week by disassembling it and washing all parts separately in warm, soapy water. Use a soft-bristled brush to scrub away any stubborn residue or stains. Be sure to thoroughly rinse each piece with hot water before reassembling. Dry all parts completely before storing the press. Any excess moisture can lead to mold or mildew growth, which will affect the taste and quality of your coffee. Store the press in a clean and dry place when not in use. Avoid stacking heavy items on top of it, as this could damage the silicone plunger or other delicate parts. Periodically check the seals around the base and lid for signs of wear or damage. If they become compromised, replace them promptly to prevent leaks and ensure a tight fit during brewing. By following these simple steps, you can help prolong the life of your Espro Travel Press 0. L and enjoy delicious coffee on-the-go for many years to come.

Question 4

"How do I properly clean and maintain my Espro Travel Press 0.35L?"

Accepted Answer

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Espro Travel Press 0. L, we recommend following these simple steps for cleaning and maintenance:
1. After each use, disassemble the press by separating the lid from the base and remove any used coffee grounds or debris from both components. Rinse all parts thoroughly with warm water to remove any remaining coffee oils or residue. Use a soft-bristled brush if necessary to help loosen any stubborn particles. If desired, add a small amount of mild dish soap to the water and continue rinsing to create a soapy lather. Be sure to thoroughly rinse all parts with clean water afterwards to remove any remaining soap. Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling the press. Do not use a towel or cloth to dry the parts, as this may leave behind fibers that could affect the flavor of your coffee in future uses. Periodically, deep clean the press by running it through a cycle with a descaling solution. We recommend using a mixture of equal parts water and white vinegar, or a commercial descaling product designed for coffee makers. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for use, and be sure to thoroughly rinse all parts with clean water afterwards to remove any remaining vinegar or descaling agent. To prevent odors and mold growth, avoid leaving water or coffee in the press for extended periods of time between uses. Additionally, store the press in a dry place away from direct sunlight or heat sources.

Question 5

I've lost my plunger's rubber seal, how do I get a replacement and can it be shipped internationally?

Accepted Answer

* On Amazon, you can search for "plunger rubber seal replacement" and filter the results by "ships internationally. This should give you a list of sellers who can ship to your country. Home Depot and Lowe's often have international shipping options available, but this may depend on the specific product and location. To confirm with your supplier, I recommend contacting them directly via phone or email. They'll be able to provide more information about their shipping policies and any additional fees that may apply. In the meantime, if you're in a pinch, you can try using a makeshift solution like petroleum jelly or silicone sealant to temporarily fix the plunger until your replacement arrives.
