This is my very first press. I was told at an early age that there are no stupid questions, so here goes. Where does the coffee go?

Put in a little water first, then coffee and add the rest of your water. You can find complete instructions in some of the most helpful Amazon product reviews. Enjoy.

Dump it in the bottom of pot and fill with water then set the top on and push. Great coffee and fun to make.

You put the coffee grounds in the pitcher and then you pour in the boiling water. Pour in the water until it reaches about 1/2 an inch from the top. Now place the lid with the plunger all the way up. Make sure you turn the lid so the opening to pour is closed off. Wait about 5-6 minutes for the coffee to steep in the water. Now gently push the plunger down slowly down. You are now done

Keiko - Happy to help.Remove the lid with the plunger and put the ground coffee in the pot - I like it fairly strong so I use 2 level coffee measuring spoon fulls. Then add the hot water, stir and replace the lid. Do not push it down as yet, the plunger (round mesh part) sits just on top of the water for 3 - 4 minutes. Then you push it down. Your coffee is now ready. Hope this helps but feel free to ask any other question if necessary.mkm928

The way this works is you make a mixture of coffee grounds and hot water. After stirring and waiting (about 4 - 5 mins), you "press" down the included metal filter, leaving you with a layer of coffee grounds on the bottom, and coffee on top. Some grounds slip through the filter, so it results in a thicker or heavier coffee. You can then pour the coffee out the spout.

Myles, I had the same question and did some online research. I basically came up with nothing. My last french press (different brand) did plunge all the way to the bottom when empty. To be honest, I can't even tell the difference between the two designs. Try not to worry about it, and just enjoy the coffee!

Just put a cup under and drain until no more comes out. Also, the part where the coffee is comes out I believe. It's easy to maintain.

I'm sorry, I don't know. I did research a "better' way to brew my coffee but besides a french press, which I also purchased from Bed and Bath I never found any info on the product you mentioned. The French press was pretty good also.

Perfect...thanks for the answer..I have struggled for one week by hitting all the buttons!!!!!!! You cannot find the answer on the Mr. Coffee website.

Coffee goes in from the top. If you have it under a countertop you will need to move it out.

I think the key to your question is: "too much". This press is a good coffee maker for the price and has not presented any problems, so far (I've had the press for a year and a half.) Answering your question: there is a residue of grounds left but not excessive. Good luck.

I think I just tilted it out to the side to refill it. I did not have it very long because it made awful coffee. The coffee was not hot and was weak so I just trashed it as it was not worth returning it.

Yes, it pushes the screen down to the coffee. We are impressed that there has been no coffee grounds in the coffee.

If you are asking how many grounds are floating in your coffee, there are absolutely none. This is the only French Press that I have owned thatcompletely seals the jar while plunging, leaving all grounds in the bottom. The silicone ring around the plunger creates the seal. Love these presses...use them at home and for camping!

Yes it does but the first coffee is stronger than what the completed brew will be. Let about half the pot drip through before pouring a cup.Maggi

There is a reservoir that holds the brewed coffee. It comes out. All you have to do is remove it, empty and rinse. Put back in and brew another pot. Really easy.

I put in 320ml of water, 20g of coffee and get about 250ml (8oz) of brew out of it. That's about all you can get in there without making a mess.

You can hold a container up to the push button and drain it or simply lift out the container the coffee is in and dump. I wait until after it's cooled off and I am ready to make coffee for the next morning. I rinse mine well each day before I make a new pot for the next day. It all comes apart and back together really very simply. BEST coffee maker ever! We have had ours since July and to be honest, if it broke tomorrow, we would buy another, we like it that well.

Not here. The question needs to be asked, How much coffee do you put into the basket for it overflow.

It's pour over. You put in a filter (#2 paper cone fits), load the coffee (or loose tea) and pour hot water over it. There are holes in the bottom to let the coffee into a cup. Viola - fresh hot coffe!

It makes about three cups of coffee if you fill it up to the top. You can always make less, it is a very nice press.
