The French press, also known as a press pot or plunger pot, is a coffee brewing device that was invented in France in the mid-1800s. The first patent for a French press was filed by a Frenchman named Mayer in 1852. However, it wasn't until the early 20th century that the French press became popular in France and throughout Europe. This was due in part to the rise of coffee culture and the availability of affordable coffee beans. In the 1920s, the French company Melior introduced a glass and metal French press design that became very popular. The design was later improved by Italian designer Attilio Calimani in the 1950s, who added a filter screen to the plunger to prevent coffee grounds from escaping into the cup. Today, the French press remains a popular brewing method around the world, prized for its simplicity, rich and full-bodied coffee, and ability to brew large quantities at once. The French press has become an iconic symbol of coffee culture.
