Excellent, easy way to brew coffee. Simply place freshly ground coffee in glass beaker and fill with nearly boiling water. Steep for a few minutes, press down on stem to trap all grounds at bottom and pour. Stainless, re-usable filters. We highly recommend plunger pots for full, clean tasting coffee. One liter (34 ounces) is the common size - about 4 cups.

The 'Shin' has a stainless top and a glass beaker.
